As part of life extension program Neptune and MEnD were engaged to complete a close visual inspection and report for the conductor frame and various raiser conduits in the splash zone. The inspection was completed using a specialised rope access team from Neptune. The MEnD engineering team was onsite to witness the inspections and also complete a few drops themselves. The data was then gathered and a comprehensive report completed included an assessment of the coating damage to the various conduits and support frames in accordance with ASTM D610-08(2012) Standard Practice for Evaluating Degree of Rusting on Painted Steel Surfaces.
Solution Execution
- Rope access inspection in splash zone
- Assessment in accordance with ASTM D610-08(2012) Standard Practice for Evaluating Degree of Rusting on Painted Steel Surfaces
