Managing Flexible Pipe Integrity Throughout the Lifecycle
Our specialist capability combines engineering, inspection, monitoring and intervention to give customers a clearer understanding of flexible pipe condition and the evidence required to make informed integrity decisions.
Engineering & Integrity Management
Specialist engineering for flexible risers, flowlines and umbilicals, spanning design and specification, manufacturing and installation support, integrity management, anomaly assessment and life-extension engineering.
Inspection & Testing
Specialist inspection and testing to understand flexible pipe condition, including annulus testing, automated testing, ultrasonic scanning, visual inspection, leak detection and condition assessment.
Monitoring & Diagnostics
Continuous and campaign-based monitoring solutions providing greater visibility of flexible pipe condition and supporting early identification and investigation of integrity changes.
Life Extension
Engineering assessment to understand degradation, remaining life and fitness for continued operation, helping customers determine appropriate inspection, monitoring, intervention or replacement strategies.
Repair & Integrity Restoration
Engineered repair and mitigation solutions for challenges including outer sheath damage, seawater ingress, restricted venting and corrosion, helping restore or protect integrity where technically appropriate.
Decommissioning Support
Flexible pipe expertise supporting late-life planning, recovery and decommissioning, informed by an understanding of asset condition, degradation mechanisms and operational history.
Technology Supporting Better Integrity Decisions
Our proprietary inspection, monitoring and repair technologies complement our engineering expertise, providing the information and intervention options required to manage flexible pipe integrity.
Technologies including FlexScout Pro®, FlexScout Auto®, FlexScan® and FlexSentinel® support inspection and monitoring, while engineered solutions including Armadillo®, FlexDefend®, FlexShield®, FlexGel® and FlexClear® address specific integrity and repair challenges.
The value lies not simply in the technology itself, but in the engineering expertise behind it – interpreting the information gathered, understanding its significance and determining the appropriate integrity response.
