APC Corrosion & Thickness Monitoring Solution

Transcription

1 APC Corrosion & Thickness Monitoring Solution with A 3 M spoton U Permanently-installed real-time internal corrosion and erosion monitoring solution designed to operate in most environments and locations. Provides real-time information about pipe wall thickness and temperature to identify corrosion trends in real time while reducing the need for intrusive tools and periodic inspection. A fundamental tool to obtain and monitor the reference thickness value that many other monitoring tools rely upon. Corrosion engineers can utilize this information to quickly establish the efficiency of inhibitors or the effect of temperature on the corrosivity of the products flowing inside pipes. Offshore Offshore structures such as platforms, FPSOs and underwater pipelines withstand very harsh environmental conditions and can be challenging and costly to inspect. A fully-submersible, IP69K version of spoton U has been specifically designed for offshore utilisation. spoton U can interface with on-deck and onshore facilities via local wired or wireless network, giving real-time updates on the status of the pipes. spoton U can also be provided with dedicated satellite data links. Above Ground spoton U provides real-time information about pipe wall thickness and temperature to identify corrosion trends in real time while reducing the need for intrusive tools and periodic inspection. Data is sent in real-time to the shield- Cube portal or to your dedicated server utilising encrypted GSM, WiFi or satellite links. Alternatively, data can be stored on the instrument and manually collected. Corrosion engineers can utilise this information to quickly establish the efficiency of inhibitors or the effect of temperature on the corrosivity of the products flowing inside pipes. Below Ground The integrity of buried pipelines is typically surveyed utilising in-line inspection (ILI). This technique is very effective at identifying threats. However, it may not always be feasible to immediately address every identified threat. spoton U can be mounted on buried pipes and utilised to monitor threats until remedial action becomes either strictly necessary or convenient. spoton is a fundamental tool to obtain and monitor the reference thickness value that many other monitoring tools rely upon.

5 APC Leak and Crack Monitoring Solution with A 3 M spoton AE A fast, accurate and reliable Acoustic Emission monitoring system that can identify both onset and existing leaks in a pipeline, as well as cracks and third party interference. Acoustic Emission (AE) is the most flexible NDT method. Normally used for screening of large structures. AE can be used for monitoring the acoustic activity generated by hitting the pipe, crack growth, product leaks and corrosion. spoton AE is an immediate extension of the spoton U system. Using the same very simple and efficient design, easy installation and durability of the tool is ensured. This is being used in several countries to detect unauthorized of illegal connections spoton AE Enables Pipeline Monitoring for Identification of: Cracks spoton AE can detect noise / emission of cracks growing, and many other modes of active damage in pressure vessels, tanks, and piping systems. Leaks spoton AE is an excellent tool for detecting and locating leaks in buried and liquid-filled pipelines. Access to the pipelines is required only locally for mounting AE sensors. Corrosion Corrosive processes of different nature can be detected using spoton AE, including stresscorrosion cracking, pitting, crevice corrosion, and inter-crystalline corrosion.

7 APC 3 rd Party Damage, Theft & CP Monitoring with A 3 M spoton AE+CP A combination of spoton AE (Acoustic Emission) and spoton CP (Cathodic Protection) has been developed as a specialist product to detect third-party damage and theft along petrochemical pipelines. Hybrid Solution for Best Performances spoton AE Acoustic Emission (AE) is the most flexible NDT method. Normally used for screening of large structures, A 3 Monitoring utilizes AE for monitoring of structures. AE can be used for monitoring the acoustic activity generated while hitting the pipe both accidental (digger hitting pipe) and intentional (theft attempt) third party inference are detected using spoton AE and appropriate alarm is sent to the asset owner or pipeline operator. spoton CP spoton CP identifies external threats with sudden change of voltage due to coating damages. Utilizing Cathodic Protection monitoring, spoton can detect when and where an illegal derivation has been attached. spoton CP check voltage and alarm immediately if a value exceeds a user threshold. This communicates using mobile, satellite or wifi comms. Data is automatically stored and can be accessed at any time via Internet. spoton + spoton CP AE Detects Third Party Damage AE identifies events generated while mechanically interfering with the pipeline AE detects Acoustic Emission noise generated by fluid flow into the illegal branch CP recognizes anomalous variations in voltage caused by breakages in coating and by the presence of illegal derivations
