Corrosion control for energy

CP Modeling
Modeling cathodic protection for aging assets to manage end-of-life and optimize life extension project costs. Accurately predict when and where protection levels will drop.
Predictive Modeling
Anode retrofits
Deepwater offers a range of options for replacing failing anodes on any type of offshore asset. Our CP retrofits are designed to save time, money and steel structures.
Cathodic protection
Corrosion Inspection
Deepwater provides pre-survey planning, technicians that will mobilize anywhere and comprehensive assessments of your offshore structures.
Inspection and survey
CP survey
Using Deepwater-manufactured Polatrak® inspection tools for divers and ROVs, Deepwater field personnel provide turn-key inspection and reporting services or a-la-carte supplemental services for CP surveys on subsea assets.
Inspection and survey
Anode retrofit
Deepwater has replaced failing internal and external anode systems on offshore wind turbines and OSS platforms since 2004.
Cathodic protection for wind turbines
CP design
Most new offshore wind developments make costly errors in designing cathodic protection systems.
Cathodic protection for wind turbines
Monitoring systems
Deepwater can provide turnkey monitoring systems for new offshore wind developments or OEM corrosion sensors and reference electrodes.
Monitoring
CP inspection
Assess cathodic protection and continuity for dock structures to ensure protection. Monitor and adjust any impressed current power sources.

Recent projects

SYU platforms anode retrofit
In what was certainly the largest-ever single cathodic protection retrofit, Deepwater Corrosion Services deployed 21,000 Amps of CP using modified RetroBuoy™ sleds to re-establish cathodic protection to three of the deepest offshore platforms in the world.

Triton FPSO hull retrofit
Deepwater engineers replaced failing hull anodes on the Triton FPSO for an additional 15 years of life. Using the RetroSAM™ suspended anode module – the only proven anode retrofit technology for failing hull CP systems – no subsea intervention was required.

GoM platform retrofit
When the original CP system depleted, CP potentials began to drop. With the downward trend picked up on the annual survey and a planned life extension, the operator chose Deepwater's RetroLink™ anode system, which requires no subsea intervention.

Rapid pipeline excavator (PET)
Deepwater's PET™ (Pipeline Excavation Tool) made short work of excavating two locations on large-diameter pipelines buried in the swamps. Eliminating the need for divers or costly traditional excavations, the PET™ is deployed quickly from a barge or roadside.

Fixed Monitoring Brazil Dock
Deepwater Do Brasil Serviços de Corrosão retrofit the ICCP system and installed a CP monitoring system on the Porto do Açu Maritime Fuel Terminal (TECMA). Annual inspection of the data readings has reduced planned maintenance and dive costs.
