Occidental Petroleum (Caledonia) Ltd.'s dual phase line in the North Sea, transporting crude and sour gas at elevated temperatures, required internal cleaning and coating with epoxy coating for corrosion protection. The authors describe how the 10-in. and 6-in. lines, inside a 28-in. casing, were cleaned and coated internally in a subsea location.
