Produce Responsibly
SharpWatch® Subsea Leak Detection
Monitor for subsea pipeline leaks without adding expensive instrumentation to the subsea infrastructure.
SharpWatch® Leak detection leverages existing instrumentation and data analytics to provide early detection of subsea leaks during production.
Drivers for Subsea Leak Detection
- Mitigating of Environmental impact
- Reputation Protection
- Detecting lost production
- Proactive Identifications of system failures
- Proactive preparations for future governmental regulations
Leak Detection Strategy
In order to gain regulatory endorsement of a Loss of Primary Containment (LoPC) detection program. A formalized strategy and plan must be established and adopted by the operating organization. Our expert engineering team will evaluate your asset and develop an acceptable strategy that addresses the key areas below.
- Implementation of an integrity management program.
- Quantification of the smallest detectable LoPC during flowing conditions.
- Quantification of the maximum detection time of LoPC during flowing conditions.
- Implementation plan of continuous monitoring tools (SharpWatch®) to identify LoPC while flowing.
- Definition of operator response and protocols for LoPC detection inclusive of reporting.
- Training program for all involved in the LoPC detection program.
- Testing program for the LoPC detection system.
- Designation of an accountable person to maintain, test and continually improve the LoPC detection management program.
