Agenda
1 Onshore and Offshore Pipelines
1.1 Terminologies (piggable vs. unpiggable, challenging and difficult to inspect)
1.2 Scenarios (Accessibility, is external inspection an option?)
- Onshore scenarios (CUI, external sheeting, casings, materials)
- Offshore scenarios – Riser – (Static riser, catenary risers, flexible risers) – Flowlines and unpiggable subsea pipelines
2 Methods of Inspection
2.1 Inspection Technology
- Electromagnetic technology (MEC, PEC, Eddy Current, etc.)
- UT technology (TOFD, EMAT, etc.)
- Others (Radiography, optical,…)
2.2 Operation of inspection tools
- Deployment of external inspection equipment offshore and onshore
- Internal inspection using – crawler; How to propel?; How to get back? – Tethered tools
- External inspection; How to get through the coating? How to scan long distances?
3 Preparation
- Planning (Who is involved?; What to do at what time?)
- Cleaning (Internal vs. external cleaning)
- Deployment (LARS, Navigation, etc)
4 Inspection Solutions
4.1 Actual Solutions of various vendors
