This scope covers the minimum requirement <strong>of</strong> materials, equipment<br />

required for installation <strong>of</strong> field joint coating by wraparound fibrereinforcement<br />

heat-shrinkable sleeve used for corrosion protection and<br />

sealing <strong>of</strong> field joints in pipelines that are forced through the soil by<br />

Horizontal Directional Drilling technique. The sleeves shall be suitable for<br />

3LPE/FBE coated pipes operating up to 60°C continuously.<br />
