Inspection, Monitoring & Asset Integrity

Close interval surveys, remote monitoring and scheduled inspection — catching protection loss before it becomes a repair, not after.

The problem this solves

An operator who needs to know whether a CP system is actually working — not assume it is until a coating failure or a classification survey says otherwise.

What you receive
  • Close interval survey report with potential readings
  • Anode/electrode condition assessment
  • Remaining life estimate
  • Remote monitoring system specification where applicable
  • Prioritised recommendations for any findings
What we monitor

Six ways to know a system is still working.

An ROV with a twin-cell probe follows the precise route of a subsea pipeline, recording pipe potentials and static reference potentials simultaneously to determine CP levels against known criteria.

CP surveys

Close interval and potential surveys against the −850 mV protection criterion.

Remote monitoring

Wireless CP monitoring instrumentation at remote or offshore locations.

Annual inspection

Scheduled inspection programmes at defined frequencies per asset type.

Performance assessment

Analysis of system performance against design parameters over time.

Condition reports

Documented findings, defects and recommendations for each asset.

Remaining life assessment

Projected remaining service life based on measured performance trends.

How monitoring works

From survey to solution.

StandardApplies to
Routine monitoringScheduled at frequencies matched to the asset and its risk profile
Annual inspectionFull CP system inspection performed on a yearly cycle by default
Analysis & recommendationFindings analysed and recommendations made against system performance
RectificationComplete solutions offered for any issues identified, not just a report

How we deliver

One team, five stages, no handoffs.

Most competitors design or manufacture. For inspection, monitoring & asset integrity, we do both, plus installation, commissioning and lifecycle monitoring — coordinated as one engagement.

01

Design

Current demand calculation, anode/electrode placement, drawings.

02

Manufacturing

Anodes cast through our regional manufacturing network; equipment engineered in.

03

Installation

In-house diving and marine installation teams, or yard-coordinated fitting.

04

Commissioning

System energised, potentials verified against the −850 mV criterion.

05

Service

Scheduled monitoring, inspection, and life extension as the system ages.

Frequently asked

Common inspection & monitoring questions

How often should CP systems be inspected?+

Annual inspection is typical, though frequency and scope are scheduled against the specific asset and its risk profile.

What does a close interval survey identify?+

Areas of under-protection against the design criterion, possible coating defects, and areas of stray current interference along the surveyed route.

Do you monitor systems remotely?+

Yes — wireless CP monitoring instrumentation can be incorporated at remote or offshore locations.

What happens after an inspection?+

Recommendations are made based on the performance analysis, and we offer complete solutions for rectifying any issues identified.
