Cor-Pro Systems provides fast and high quality subsea coatings in Houston, TX and other areas
in the Gulf Coast.
Saltwater is one of the most powerful agents of corrosion, and marine industries are always at risk of having corroded equipment because of non-stop exposure to the sea.
Fortunately, there are several processes that can help industries control the rate of corrosion for their underwater equipment. With the right subsea coatings services, industries can mitigate corrosion and extend the life of their equipment by more than twice their normal lifespan.

Understanding Subsea Corrosion
Subsea coatings are specifically formulated types of corrosion protection that protects metals from the harsh seawater. With the help of subsea coatings, metals submerged underwater can withstand the seawater and slow down the rate of the metal’s corrosion.
While there are other ways to protect marine equipment from seawater corrosion such as cathodic methods, subsea coatings serve as their first line of defense from seawater.
Subsea corrosion has a higher rate of corrosion because seawater becomes a voltaic cell that speeds up corrosion process. Subsea corrosion attacks metals in two steps:
- Anodic action which causes pitting on the surface of metals
- Cathodic action that creates hydroxide ions through the reduction of oxygen to the air.
By using subsea coatings, industries have a higher chance of mitigating corrosion and avoid damages brought by corroded equipment.
Types Of Subsea Coatings
There are several types of subsea coatings specially formulated for different alloys. Some of them are:
- Chlorinated Rubber Resins
- Vinyl Resins
- Bituminous Binders
- Cellulose Derivatives
