COPON INTERNAL LINING FOR AVIATION FUEL AND MIXED PRODUCT PIPELINES
COPON Pipelinings, E Wood Ltd has been involved in the supply of linings for pipelines carrying Aviation Fuel, Mixed and other Refined Products for many years.
For over 35 years, it has been the practice of all major Petroleum Companies worldwide to internally coat Aviation Fuel Pipelines for reasons of product purity. Severe risks could arise, if traces of rust or other contamination come in contact with aircraft engines. Experience has shown that it is more economic and practical to internally line the pipe instead of expensive micro-filtration.
