UK provider of remotely deployed subsea inspections TSC Subsea has secured a multi-year contract with an undisclosed operator to deliver subsea inspection of insulated flexible pipes in the pre-salt region offshore Brazil.
Under the contract seen as “significant” , TSC Subsea is in charge of performing inspections using ART and ARTEMIS to collect acoustic data from the flexible pipe body and deploying client-patented techniques using subsea phased array (SPA) ultrasonics or pressure measurements.
The work will be performed on a continuous basis from 2024 to 2026.
The UK company did not reveal any additional information about the client but did say it was a major operator.
“We’re incredibly proud to have been selected to execute this contract. It’s a testament to our expertise and the quality of our services. This contract will enable our client to mitigate the SCC-CO2 risk by detecting unwanted media in the annulus region of their flexible pipes. I would like to thank everyone who helped us reach this milestone, from our outstanding offshore teams and office staff to our R&D teams, sales, and commercial departments,” said Fabio Puga , Country Manager at TSC Subsea.
