Case Studies - Subsea Megger
Imes has developed an instrumentation system to enable electrical testing of umbilicals and structures subsea. The Subsea Megger was conceived in response to demands for a tool to test for Insulation Resistance (IR) and Continuity Resistance (CR) in the oilfields west of Shetland for BP.
The subsea megger can be mounted on any ROV and enables an operator on the Dive Support Vessel, to control the voltages and the cores to be tested. A portable laptop computer provides an instant graphical display of the results as well as automatically storing the results in MS Excel format.
The Imes megger has been used extensively in deepwater operations from West of Shetland through to Ormen Lange and demonstrates capability to build custom instrumentation that supports the integrity of our clients assets.
