Transocean Coatings is a worldwide association of marine & protective paint producers. who develops, produce and sells anti-fouling, anti-corrosive and many more coatings for ships, offshore installations, industrial facilities and yachts.Transocean Represented in Egypt by one of biggest paints company in the middle east, "Sipes paints Group" which it has more than 25 year heritage of developing paint market in Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, Nigeria and other African markets, The activities are concentrated on three product groups: 1- Marine - Transocean Coatings develops, manufactures and sells anti-fouling, anti-corrosive and many more coatings for ships, offshore installations, industrial facilities. 2-Offshore / Onshore structures - Offshore structures, especially the splash zone areas face severe corrosive conditions. Maintenance of these structures brings several problems. Getting it right from the start makes very much sense in the oil and gas market since access and window of opportunity is a major obstacle for maintenance painting. Oil companies have therefore raised the standards on material protection and selection. For paints, pre-qualification standards exist which aim to deliver systems with at least 15 year lifetime. Accelerated cycle corrosion tests like ISO 20340 and Norsok M 501 are used by all major oil companies in addition to specific testing on immersion resistance and compatibility with cathodic protection, All the above makes clear that any paint company active in this market has to be dedicated to corrosion protection. 3- Yachting - Pleasure crafts are made out of different materials; metal (steel, aluminum), wood or Glass-fiber Reinforced Polyester (GRP). Left unpainted, marine conditions will deteriorate these materials. Besides offering protection, coating systems have a decorative function too although for some areas the emphasis is more on the protective component such as anti-fouling and ballast tanks.
