Surface Preparation Of Riser As part of the installation of the sleeve, a system has been developed for the removal of marine growth, neoprene liners and coatings of up to 3.00 m below MSL, without the intervention of divers The lightweight, modular equipment can be installed by a crew of 2 technicians and is capable of achieving surface cleanliness of up to Swedish Standard SA 2.5 by means of high pressure water - and abrasive blasting The level of cleanliness can be monitored from the top deck through attached CCTV cameras Preliminary Riser Surface Preparation 1. Installation of riser cleaning equipment 2. Surface preparation of riser 3. Cleaning of riser above water to required length 4. Cleaning of riser below water to required depth 5. Cleaning under water 6. Completion of surface preparation YOUR ASSURANCE IN STRENGTH AND PROTECTION Lloyd's Register s test certificates can be made available upon request
