Deepwater retrofits cathodic protection for the in-field flowlines in the North Sea

In October 2007, Deepwater Corrosion Services in conjunction with Alliance partners Hockway Ltd. performed the first phase of a complete cathodic protection retrofit for Apache's Forties field, in the North Sea. Phase 2 of the project is to be completed by Deepwater EU Ltd. in Q3/Q4 2010.  More info

RetroPod and RetroClamp used to retrofit cathodic protection on two subsea fields

In February 2008, Deepwater Corrosion Services performed anode retrofits on 2 subsea development systems in 73 hours. These deep water installations, located in water depths ranging from 775 to 1,750 feet, consisted of: Four (4) flowlines, ranging in length from 3 to 9 miles each, four (4) well trees, two (2) flowline manifolds and two (2) umbilical termination units.   More info

Deepwater retrofits the cathodic protection on five structures in fourteen days

In December 2007, Deepwater Corrosion Services performed anode retrofits on five structures located in the Gulf of Mexico. The installation took a total of fourteen days. The platforms consisted of: 8-pile in 176 fsw (2.5 days), 8-pile in 113 fsw (2.75 days), 8-pile in 111 fsw (4 days), 4-pile in 111 fsw (4 days), 1-pile in 115 fsw (.5 days)   More info

RetroSled system used to replace failing cathodic protection on a pipeline in Equatorial Guinea

In 2006, Deepwater Corrosion Services, Inc. conducted a pipeline anode retrofit of an offshore process pipeline in Equatorial Guinea. The pipeline, located in 200 ft. depths, had low cathodic protection potentials, prompting Deepwater's design team to select the larger, expanding version of the RetroSled system, in order to re-polarize the pipeline quickly.   More info
