4 Operational Excellence APS currently executes projects in over 20 countries, covering the Middle East and Africa from our offices in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and our operations in South East Asia from our offices in Malaysia, Thailand and Brunei. The principal manufacturing facilities for the provision of our coatings & linings services is located in Dubai, conveniently located near to the Abu Dhabi border, wherein we have a wide variety of modern, state of the art automatic and manual equipment for the surface preparation and application of specialist coatings and linings to pipelines and vessels. A significant section of these facilities is constantly climate controlled and can be used year round for the mixing and application of heat sensitive resins, but equally as important, caters for the general well - being of technical staff during the hot summer months. In the nearby industrial parks in Dubai we have centralized our rubber lining and neoprene cladding facilities, which also include the two largest steam pressure autoclaves available within the Middle East region, together with high temperature dry ovens for the curing of phenolic and other heat-cure lining systems. APS is at the forefront of innovative corrosion engineering & contracting creating enhanced efficiencies in all operational areas

5 Additional automatic shot blasting machinery and vacuum recovery systems are also located in the rubber lining facility to enable the environmentally friendly pre-treatment and surface preparation of risers and pipe joints prior to surface treatment. APS main pipeline rehabilitation manufacturing facility is also conveniently located in Dubai and incorporates the manufacturing plant for Channeline Structural GRP Liner Sections. The yard is also our home-base for numerous of the state-of-the art equipment and machinery that is required for the in-field installation of a vast range of pipeline rehabilitation technologies. APS is at the forefront of innovative corrosion engineering and contacting, creating enhanced efficiencies in all operation areas. As a regional market leader we take our ethical responsibilities extremely seriously. That s why we are constantly pursuing operational excellence by the design, building and operating of our global facilities in ways that prevent harm to public health, environment and that also conserve energy, water and raw materials.

6 Quality, health, safety & environment Consistent with all elements of our business APS strives to attain excellence and the highest standards in both safety and the environment. It goes without saying that with a company policy this bold; we stand or fall by our performance. This performance translated into achieving ISO certification as certified operators for: ISO 9001:2008/BS EN ISO 14001:2004 OHSAS 18001:2007 Central to our position on safety and environment is APS s Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) Policy.

With over the decades of experience in managing and controlling corrosion in some of the harshest and most critical production environments in the world we know how to tackle the engineering management and implementation of the best corrosion control systems to keep your facility on track. Whether it be pipelines, process vessels, storage tanks, offshore structures, or chemical treatment areas; APS offers the most efficient and effective solutions designed to meet the specific needs of the industry and includes the application of the following specialized technology range: Solvent Free Epoxy and Polyurethane Systems Glassflake Reinforced Polyester / Vinyl Ester / Pure Epoxy Systems Epoxy/Derakane Laminate Systems Thermal Metal Spray - Zinc / Monel / Aluminium / Stainless Steel Neoprene Cladding Systems Rubber Lining Systems Epoxy Intumescent Fireproofing Systems APS is associated with some of the world s leading manufacturers of high performance linings, coatings and fireproofing materials, Quality application of quality product technologies leads to lasting performance of your industry assets.

10 coatings & linings technology range Solvent Free Epoxy and Polyurethane Systems Plural component hot applied coating is the modern, fast, efficient and reliable method for the factory application of high performance materials to critical pipelines. Also favored as a field rehabilitation and field joint coating system, because of its tough, abrasion resistant capabilities, pipe can be bedded and backfilled almost immediately after completion which is of vital importance to the timely completion of fabrication and rehabilitation projects. APS offers a complete factory and field service for both new and existing pipelines. Typical Applications: External Buried Pipelines External Buried Pipeline Field Joints External Pipe Bends/Fitting/Vales Glassflake Reinforced Polyester / Vinyl Ester / Pure Epoxy Systems Glass flake coatings and linings are widely used in situations of extreme chemical and abrasion environments. Based on polyester, vinyl-ester or bisphenol or epoxy resins, heavily loaded with mica chip, they provide a tough and extremely durable barrier to even the most arduous of service conditions. These linings can be both factory and field applied by APS qualified installers. Typical Applications: Internal Pipe Spools/Bends/Fittings/Valves Internal Separator Vessels Internal Seawater Intake Lines/Absorbers/Scrubbers Epoxy/Derakane Laminate Systems Pure epoxy resin and Derakane laminate systems are the most successful way of protecting a substrate from an acidic environment, such as encountered in land and sea-borne hydrochloric acid storage and transportation tanks, crude oil storage tanks and chemical process and mixing equipment. These linings can be both factory and field applied by APS qualified installers. Typical Applications: Internal Hydrochloric Acid Tanks Internal Frac Tanks Internal Deaerators Rubber Lining Systems APS installs an extensive range of hard and soft, pressure and atmospheric cured sheet elastomeric compounds, including: natural rubber, ebonite, chlorobutyl, polychloroprene and PVDF. Rubber Lining Systems have a wide application usage in the water production, chemical production, storage and transportation industries and can be installed either at site or in our factory facility. Typical Applications: Internal Hydrochloric Acid Tanks Internal Seawater Tanks Internal HBO Acid Tanks

11 Neoprene Cladding Systems The highly vulnerable splash zone area with its continuous exposure to oxygenated seawater and wave action can easily strip conventional coatings from the surface of the steel, allowing high levels of corrosion to occur. Neoprene cladding system is a tough elastomeric coating designed to withstand the adverse environmental conditions affecting structural splash zones and marine risers. APS offers a complete factory installation service employing the most modern steam autoclaves required for vulcanization. APS is proud of its extensive track record of protecting several thousand risers in all parts of the world so far. Typical Applications: Splash Zone Area Riser Pipes Splash Zone Area Jacket Legs Splash Zone Area Riser Clamps Thermal Metal Spray - Zinc/Monel/Aluminum/Stainless Steel The electric arc and flame spray application of exotic metal coatings is rapidly becoming more and more popular world-wide for the long term protection of steel surfaces against extreme marine, high temperature and corrosive chemical environments, especially for areas where extended life to first maintenance is essential. APS offers a complete factory and field installation service employing the most modern of techniques and equipment enabling rapid and economical production. Flame sprayed deposition represents one of the highest integrity coating systems available on the market today. Typical Applications: Splash zone Area of Riser Pipes/Jacket Legs/Conductors External Pipe Spools/Valves/Fittings/Bends External Flare Booms Epoxy Intumescent Fireproofing Systems Intumescent fire protection solutions prevent steel structures from heating up rapidly in a fire and thereby delay the loss of load bearing capacity and integrity. In marine and industrial environments, where hydrocarbon pool and jet fires are a risk, epoxy intumescent fire proofing buys time to enable personnel to evacuate the area. In these cases high quality installation and the right choice of fire protection material are critical. APS has an unrivalled history in terms of the installation of epoxy intumescent fireproofing systems in all environmental application conditions. Typical Applications: External Gas Spheres External Onshore Pipe Racks External Offshore Structural Steel COATINGS & LININGS
