1.0 INTRODUCTION
This document provides Approved Coating Systems List in accordance with PTS 15.20.03
revision June 2019 (Appendix A). The list is live document and will be updated periodically
based on latest products and/or coating system(s) approval by PETRONAS Protective Coating
Technical Committee (PPCTC).
This Approved Coating Systems List supersedes PETRONAS Protective Coatings and Linings
Vendor Approved List in accordance to PTS 30.48.00.31 (2012) as per Appendix B. However,
a transition period until 30th June 2021 is permitted where PTS 30.48.00.31 (2012) Approved
Coating Systems List is still valid.
For on-going projects that have issued Invitation to Bid (ITB) based on PTS 30.48.00.31 (2012)
Approved Coating Systems List before 16th February 2021, PPCTC allows for projects to
pursue until completion of contract duration.

marking can be used for larger diameters for insulated and non-insulated piping.
(r) Pure or modified epoxy universal primer to be used. For universal primer, it shall be compatible with galvanized
steel, carbon steel and stainless steel substrates. It shall be overcoatable with polyamide or polyamine cured
epoxies, alkyd, polyurethanes, solvent free epoxies and vinyl coatings. It shall be suitable for wet blast cleaned
surfaces (damp/dry) and shall be compatible with existing aged coatings.
