1 Tittel Cost Efficient Corrosion and Erosion Monitoring for Pipeline Integrity av Navn INTSOK Subsea 215: U.S SPS & SURF Workshop Trond Olsen President, ClampOn, Inc.

2 From the start... WE BUILT A FLOW RIG BUT THE PLUMBER WANTED 5 USD, AND WE DID NOT HAVE THE 5!!!

3 into today Non-Intrusive Ultrasonic Intelligent Sensors - Sand Monitoring - PIG Detection - Leak Monitoring - Vibration Monitoring - Well Collision Detection - Wall Thickness Monitoring - Corrosion-Erosion Monitoring - Onshore, topside & Subsea - Service / Support

4 ClampOn some key figures Start-up in 1994, Houston in 1997 Employees 115 Bergen, 15 Houston More than 15. sensors delivered More than 2 subsea sensors delivered Turnover 214 approx. $35 million. Represented in 3+ countries We travel 3+ days/year Deliveries to 38 countries in 212 Large part of sales to a mix of about 4 companies ClampOn supplies products and services world wide where there is oil and gas we are present!

6 If you have issues like this

7 you could be facing

8 Your challenge Difficult access assets Inaccessible sections of pipelines Unpiggable pipelines Estimation of corrosion/erosion rates for life management Avoid shutting down production to inspect Paradigm shift From random inspection to continuous monitoring License to operate demonstrating safe operations

9 What we bring to the table CEM Monitoring based on GWT w/tomography Non-intrusive permanently installed corrosion/erosion monitoring technology providing a cost-efficient solution

10 Why guided waves Conventional manual gauge Limited spot coverage Guided wave transducer rings Full volume coverage

11 Transducers can be mounted on the outside of coating <1mm /.4 thickness Measures WT between the transducers in line of sight Resolution/sensitivity better then 1% of WT Signal is Robust and will not break down

12 Transducers can be mounted on the outside of coating <1mm /.4 thickness Measures WT between the transducers in line of sight Resolution/sensitivity better then 1% of WT Signal is Robust and will not break down

13 CEM Coverage Area w/gwt 5 signal paths per transducer direct, clockwise and counter clockwise helical and 2 turn helical Max distance is 5 x OD - Min distance is 2 x WT

14 Benefit of modes wrapping around the pipe Modes up to 2nd order Modes up to 1st order Direct wave paths only 1mm mm mm Nominal max depth 2.21 mm Reconst. max depth 2.24 mm Error (% wt).39% Nominal max depth 2.21 mm Reconst. max depth 2.2 mm Error (% wt) -2.59% Nominal max depth 2.21 mm Reconst. max depth 1.51 mm Error (% wt) -9.51%

18 CEM with Bend Tomography Available ultimo 215 topside and subsea Wall loss [% wt]

19 CEM provide Continous monitoring for life of field High resolution 3D tomography of pipe condition Sensitivity 1% of wall thickness Low power consumption SCS or battery power SCS communication or local data storage Non-intrusive

25 Pre-installed CEM

26 Data Communication via Wave Glider Surfboard The Corrosion-Erosion Monitoring System System in the field - SubseaBrownfield retrofit for GoM project

27 Onshore Application Examples Straight pipes Bends Up to sixteen transducers mounted on two clamping bands over the selected area. Up to sixteen transducers mounted on separate sides of a bend, monitoring the wall thickness loss in the bend. Reducers Up to sixteen transducers mounted on selected locations on the reducer. Uneven thickness profile is not a problem.

28 Subsea CEM Technical data Pipe outer diameter (OD): min 4 (1 mm) Pipe wall thickness (WT): 2 mm to 35 mm (,8 to 1,38 ) Distance between transducers:.15 m 2 m (78 ) typical Temperature : -4 to 18 C (-4 to 356 F ) Frequency range: 3 to 3 khz Sensitivity: (smallest change better than 1% of the pipe wall that can be reliably detected) thickness typical.1% Repeatability:.4% Power consumption: Avg 6 Watt - Max 1 Watt Sleep Mode:,1mA Battery Pack: 5 years with data point weekly Sensor electronics: DSP 66-MIPS, A/D con. 24bit, 25-Years Installation: Vertical & Horizontal Water depth: 3 Meters Test pressure: 345 BarA

29 Operational Data Operating mode: Active acoustic - Guided Lamb waves Number of transducers: Minimum 2, current 8 by Q4 32 Transducer type: Electromagnetic Acoustic Transducers CEMATs can be mounted without any acoustic couplant.
