Insights from industry experts have helped AMPP identify key areas to focus on.

Reducing maintenance costs

Proper FBE application and inspection helps minimize long-term maintenance expenses.

Maximizing corrosion protection

Preventing corrosion on FBE-coated assets reduces environmental and safety risks.

Extending asset life cycles

Compliance with best practices prolongs asset durability and helps prevent failures.

A new program built by industry, for industry

A new course is now available for professionals involved in the application, monitoring, inspection, and quality control of Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) coatings. Designed to address critical workforce gaps, this program delivers foundational knowledge in the application, inspection, evaluation, and testing of plant-applied single- and dual-layer external FBE coatings for pipelines.

Built on a cross-disciplinary knowledge base, the course goes beyond a single job role—enhancing expertise across the broader FBE workforce. It supports safe, sustainable operations and helps ensure professionals are equipped to protect life, property, and the environment.

Please note: A corresponding certification is currently in development and will be released at a later date.
