Hi Neilashkumar,
 
I would like to add a few notes in addition to the comments of Mr. Alan Denny.
 
Painting is quite uncommon for austenitic stainless steels. Following fabrication and welding, complete pickling + passivation is more common practice. In addition depending on the surrounding environmental conditions stainless steel vessels and piping are   often  insulated   ( which is another protective shield against atmospheric corrosion). Usually  C5M grade of paints are recommended for stainless steel in marine environments.
 
Often paints may contain items such as "isocyanates" which has serious health and safety issues. In these  attached  documents the texts with yellow or green highlights are recommended while the one with red  requires "CAUTION". It would be advisable ( as stated earlier by Alan) to consult the paint manufacturers.  
 
 Irrespective of painting or other option full surface cleaning and surface preparation by blasting is recommended.
 
The other and safer option would be to blast clean the surface, perform in situ pickling and  passivate and then to  insulate the vessel.  Avesta( http://www.avestafinishing.com/products/pickling-spray.aspx) has good and proven products for such passivation work. You may find out more details for local vendors.
 
Thanks.

The coating manufacturers are normally very helpful in providing the advice you need regarding application of their coatings to difficult substrate materials. I suggest you put this question to Hempel or to International Paints (Akzo Nobel). The challenge will be doing this in-situ and achieving the necessary surface preparation standard. I would expect, as I think you have anticipated, that you first have to pickle and passivate before performing surface preparation and coating if this coating is to have any durability.

Dear All ,

 

Instead of Pickling and passivation Can anyone advise or suggest any epoxy type coating spray from hempell is advisable ? I need your valuable point on this subject.

Because after pickling and passivation client is asking me what guaranty it will not corrode again? Since it is a marine environment.

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
