CorrosionRADAR Ltd has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Bureau Veritas in the Middle East to deliver an integrated solution that helps oil and gas companies manage Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI). Bureau Veritas is the first organisation in the region to integrate the CorrosionRADAR® predictive corrosion monitoring system with its Opex
solutions portfolio.
According to the company, the collaboration which captures the expertise of both organisations and aims to deliver a quality controlled end-to-end solution for asset integrity management, signals new momentum in the Middle East to adopt digitalisation to solve the challenges presented by CUI. It comes at a time when industry confidence and investment in digital systems for risk-based inspection (RBI) is accelerating and an accurate and reliable data-driven response for CUI management is achievable.
The automated solution combines real-time field data and predictive analytics generated via CorrosionRADAR’s wireless sensing waveguides under the asset insulation, with Bureau Veritas field experience, quality assurance, integrity and risk-based inspection expertise to save costs through prioritising of maintenance activities, repair and rehabilitation schedules. For operators, this means informed decision making, optimised inspection and maintenance programmes, safer and more reliable operations with decreased risk, and more production uptime. The integrated solution is equally suitable for existing brownfield plants and incorporation in new greenfield build, concluded the company.
CorrosionRADAR is planning a series of online discussions and workshops for companies in the Middle East who are interested in learning more about digital collaborations for combatting CUI. Please contact James Rosenshine, Head of Business Development, CorrosionRADAR, if you would like to join an event.
