A flexible pipeline is a high value asset with long replacement lead times and high demands for reliability. A flexible pipe failure may easily result in unwanted release of hydrocarbons, and an unscheduled need to replace a pipeline may cause production to stop for months, even years. At the same time it is difficult to verify the condition of a flexible pipe, giving rise to the need for the advanced continuous monitoring solutions delivered by FORCE:

The P-scan system has played a major role on the market for integrity inspection of technical structures since 1977. P-scan got a world-wide breakthrough in 1985 with the introduction of the PSP-3 P-scan processor unit combined with new PC software. The very compact P-scan System 4, providing the newest technology available for ultrasound systems today, is the 4th generation of P-scan systems.

Under EU legislation, waste incineration plants and major firing plants (power stations) must ensure that the results of the measurements they make using their own measuring equipment in chimneys is functioning correctly. This is done through compliance with a relatively new European standard.

FORCE Technology offers a range of products for structural (response) monitoring of marine risers. These products are also used for monitoring strain on platforms, jackets etc, and may be used to monitor strain and fatigue during transport and similar.

VMM measuring instrument is a voltmeter developed specially for application with FORCE Technology’s ERE 20 reference electrodes, used for assessment of a cathodic protection system and for monitoring of corrosion in reinforcement in concrete structures. VMM is characterised by its built-in data logger for registration of potentials without using a computer with a memory of up to 1024 registrations. The VMM measuring instrument developed for measuring on ERE 20 reference electrodes.
