NACE International published its inaugural Maritime News e-newsletter on Tuesday, March 20. The complete issue can be read here.
Designed to be a global resource for maritime asset protection, this new triannual publication encompasses all topics pertaining to preservation of marine vessels, as well as underwater and splash zone structures such as docks, jetties, piers, platforms, buoys, wind turbines, and more.
It is estimated that the total cost of marine corrosion worldwide is between $50 to $80 billion every year. The coating industry is almost 40% of the total direct costs, and the largest portion of this cost is attributed to organic coatings. The initial issue includes several pages of related content, including feature stories about novel coatings projects and an exclusive question-and-answer session with industry experts.
Whether the subject is wind turbine elements, ship decks, steel-reinforced concrete structures, or offshore platform components, Maritime News is committed to addressing corrosion challenges in marine environments and for the maritime industry. To subscribe to the newsletter, please click here.
