Surface Preperation and Coating
Surface Preperation and Coating
At DEGEM Marine & Offshore, we provide comprehensive surface preparation and coating solutions for marine, offshore, drilling, and industrial assets. Our services are designed to protect critical equipment and structures against corrosion, extend operational life, and support safe and reliable operations in demanding environments.
With experienced personnel and specialized equipment, we deliver surface preparation services ranging from 500 to 3,000 bar high-pressure water jetting, enabling the effective removal of rust, old coatings, marine growth, contaminants, and other surface deposits without unnecessary impact on the base material.
Our high-pressure water jetting capabilities are particularly suitable for the preparation, cleaning, maintenance, and refurbishment of offshore and drilling equipment, as well as shipboard structures and machinery.
In addition to ultra-high-pressure water jetting, DEGEM provides professional abrasive blasting and mechanical surface preparation services for drilling and offshore equipment, including:
- Drilling equipment and components
- Mud treatment and solids control equipment
- BOP and well control equipment
- Pipes, spools, manifolds, and pressure vessels
- Skid-mounted equipment and offshore modules
- Structural steel and shipboard equipment
Surface preparation can be carried out in accordance with project and coating specifications, including recognized preparation standards such as Sa 2, Sa 2½ and Sa 3, where applicable.
Following surface preparation, our qualified coating teams apply protective coating systems based on the operational environment and client requirements. Our services cover the application of marine coatings, offshore protective coatings, epoxy systems, polyurethane topcoats, corrosion protection systems, and specialized coating solutions.
Through our integrated approach to surface preparation, high-pressure water jetting, abrasive blasting, and coating application, DEGEM Marine & Offshore delivers a complete solution from initial assessment through to final inspection and quality documentation.
DEGEM’s capability to provide 500–3,000 bar high-pressure water jetting and specialized blasting services for drilling equipment enables us to perform complex maintenance and refurbishment works efficiently, safely, and in accordance with the demanding requirements of the marine and offshore industry.

On-Site Operation
DEGEM approaches scraping/painting processes as an “on-site operation.” First, the work area and access requirements are determined through site survey. Then, the application sequence is established: which areas first, which areas later; how to proceed without affecting ship operations; at which checkpoints to stop and verify; what is the acceptance standard? Work does not commence until these questions are clarified.
The DEGEM Approach: Holistic Discipline in Offshore and Shipyard Operations
Especially in offshore and shipyard environments, blasting and painting operations are not merely about labor; they also involve workplace safety, site organization, team coordination, and the readiness of materials and equipment. Therefore, the DEGEM approach aims to establish a controlled and traceable implementation framework that aligns with safety regulations and site permit processes.
