Enterprise Products is a client, Ronnie Cole, was very impressed w/ our Lunch n Learn a while back, and didn’t hesitate to have us ZPEX a 5 stage vertical Afton pump. This pump has been in a brine service now for nearly 6 months and is being monitored for evaluation of the coating. So far all is good.

We ZPEX coated a unit and it is now in service and has ran for over 3 months. It is being monitored for life extension. We will share the results later on this year.
