Case Study: IEV Successfully Executes Pipeline Free Span Correction & Cold-Cutting Scopes With A Multi-Skilled Crew

Managing cost is the key challenge of any project, especially for one that is offshore and laden with uncertainties such as monsoon weather conditions and topping it all, the current pandemic. Amidst these challenges, a prominent offshore contractor from Malaysia undertook a new pipelay project offshore Brunei which required free span correction and cold cutting services. Having over 20 years of combined experience in delivering these services, IEV was awarded both scopes.

Case Study: IEV’s 1st Remotely Installed MGP: Embracing The Age Of Digitalisation

PROJECT BRIEF

The COVID pandemic brought on challenges of sorts forcing organisations to rethink conventional methods of executing projects in the offshore oil and gas industry. One such project awarded to IEV during the pandemic year when Movement Control Orders forced us to “re-engineer” our deployment strategy.

IEV Earned 4th MGP Contract For Jetty In Malaysia

In 2018, a prominent Port Operator in Malaysia commissioned a trial of the Marine Growth Preventers (MGPs) designed specifically to remove and prevent marine growth and microbially induced corrosion (MIC) on jetty piles. The one-unit-per-pile MGP prevents marine growth and MIC at the splash zone level where it is most prolific due to availability of sunlight and nutrients.

IEV Launches Remote Monitoring Digital Solutions Across Asia

Traditionally, operators used to rely on skilled personnel to constantly be on the ground at the facility, recording tedious data points to maintain and ensure safe operations manually. Such monitoring activities require high labour cost and time, leaving operators to heavily rely on manual data collection, in which some can be difficult due to access and subject to human errors. This challenge is aggravated in view of the current pandemic, when travel and presence of skilled personnel at site is restricted.

IEV Forms Alliance With Omniflex To Bring The Powerview CP, A High-tech Cloud Based Remote CP Monitoring Service

IEV is pleased to announce the partnership with OMNIFLEX, a 50-year old remote monitoring specialist that supplies a range of remote monitoring solutions to cathodic protection, tank farms, industrial equipment, to name a few. The first product to be launched by the alliance IEV-OMNIFLEX IS the PowerView CP, a remote cathodic protection system that can be installed to monitor new or existing ICCP system. In addition to the array of benefits, the PowerView CP employs a specially designed High Efficiency Transformer Rectifiers (TR) based on the principle of distributed CP that offers significant reduction in cabling and energy costs. In embracing the Internet of Things (IoT), the PowerView CP runs on a remote controlling software that enables the CP Engineer to monitor the CP condition from anywhere internet is accessible.

Remediation of Corrosion Under Pipe Support (CUPS) by Trenton Wax-Tapes

Challenges

Corrosion under pipe support (CUPS) is a major hidden threat and one of the most aggressive types of corrosion attack on piping systems. CUPS is caused by several factors. Traditionally, the design of pipe supports allows for crevices to be formed which can lead to crevice corrosion in the presence of moisture. Protective coating damages, metal to metal contact and galvanic corrosion also lead to CUPS. The most common causes of external piping failure in ageing assets are due to highly localised deterioration by corrosion in areas which are less accessible and difficult to inspect and repair. As a result, operators may face huge pipe replacement costs, loss of pressure containment and production or in some cases, explosion and massive economic consequences.
