Pre-commissioning Baseline
- 100% coverage of baseline condition
- Establish API 2RIM integrity management program
Solutions
- First step to establish API 2RIM integrity management program
- Fingerprint pipeline before service to identify asset baseline
- Assess the condition of risers and flowlines to determine any anomalies before being exposed to production fluid
- Inspections conducted onshore and/or offshore before commissioning
- Inspections used to detect quality issues, manufacturing and installation defects including:
- Laminations, inclusions, girth weld hi-lo, machining anomalies, gouges, dents, buckles, wall thickness variations
Value
- Establishes initial measured wall thickness of the entire pipeline as a baseline reference for integrity management program
- Optimizes corrosion monitoring locations
- Calculates accurate corrosion growth rates
- Enables efficient scheduling of inspection intervals
Onshore
- Conducts baseline inspection prior to installation to minimize offshore activity
- Identifies manufacturing defects before offshore installation
Offshore
- Provides 100% baseline inspection of the pipeline system
- Identifies both manufacturing and installation defects prior to first oil
