Offshore corrosion problems have been Deepwater’s sole focus since 1986. From its humble beginnings as an offshore inspection company, Deepwater has evolved into a leading international supplier of innovative corrosion control systems. Deepwater has products and services that address all facets of corrosion control in all of the critical development areas of the world.

Low cost cathodic protection retrofit systems that extend the life of aging assets has become a particular speciality for Deepwater. The RetroPod™, RetroBuoy™ and RetroLink™ systems are now emerging as the standards for many shallow water assets requiring up to 20 additional years of life. These systems are all well-proven and they provide major cost savings for the operator, normally in excess of 40% over 20th century methods.

Despite expansion, Deepwater is still a leading player in the offshore inspection business, offering a full range of regulatory offshore inspection services. Polatrak® CP probes (the company’s own brand) are amongst the most specified in the world; new generation ROV interfaced measurement systems like the Deep-C-Meter™ are also making a mark.

A mainstay product of the company since the late 80’s has been the I-Rod® based pipe-support systems. Application of this product increases steadily each year and with the recent invention of the new I-Liner product (designed for pipe clamps), riser clamp corrosion issues will soon be routinely preventable.

A thirst for innovation drives Deepwater’s president and found, Jim Britton, to constantly develop and patent innovative new products. “Deepwater’s mission is to continually improve the way we manage corrosion control for the offshore industry. We are routinely improving the state of the art for CP application and monitoring. We will become the dominant player in this market worldwide by the year 2010.”
