Jee was contacted by a client who suspected there may be an outwards dent and gouge in one of their major pipelines.
Our engineers were asked to define acceptance criteria for possible dent and gouge defects, both on and away from girth welds, to allow for divers to safely carry out a close inspection of the actual pipeline damage.
Our team have significant experience in defect assessment combined with expert analysis and testing skills.
The analysis was carried out using the following methodology:
The analysis results aided the inspection process by demonstrating that the risk to divers was minimal, based on preliminary inspection data and a close inspection of the dent and gouge defects could be completed safely.
Subsequently, our client was able to deem the pipeline fit for service, avoiding unnecessary and expensive repair and replacement work, saving our client substantial costs.
