We have successfully certified our Flexible Riser inspection technology HiREC with wire crack detection.
The tests were carried out client lab side for test sample blind scanning and inside the hyperbaric chamber, which allows simulating 2,500 metres water depth pressure.
In addition to the pressure tests, HiREC was also subjected to a performance and detection test to confirm its reliability and accuracy under real-world conditions.
The newly developed electromagnetic sensor technology for the High Resolution Eddy Current system offers an increased crack detection capability despite the lift-off through outer protective sheaths.
An important step towards ensuring the highest quality even under the most extreme conditions.
