Enhancing Asset Integrity Management in Subsea Oil and Gas Operations

The Impulse Group

Martin Harbottle, Technical Director

In the dynamic world of subsea oil and gas exploration, maintaining the integrity of assets is paramount to ensure safety, optimise production and mitigate risks. The Impulse Group specialises in providing comprehensive asset integrity management services tailored to meet the unique needs of subsea operations worldwide.

 

Martin Harbottle, Technical Director at The Impulse Group, shares his expertise below about how the team of experts at The Impulse Group can enhance asset integrity in your subsea oil and gas operations.



Effective inspection planning

Effective inspection planning is the cornerstone of asset integrity management. A customised inspection plan, tailored to specific assets and operational requirements can minimise downtime and maximise asset performance.

 

Intervention and product repair

In the event of anomalies or defects detected during inspections, prompt intervention and repair are crucial to prevent potential failures and maintain asset integrity. For example, The Impulse Group offers a comprehensive range of intervention and repair products designed to address various subsea challenges, from pipeline repairs to structural integrity enhancements.


Agile risk management

Managing risks effectively is essential to safeguarding assets and personnel in subsea environments. Risk management can encompass field risk assessments, Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA), Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP), Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and more. By identifying, assessing, and mitigating potential risks, you can minimise operational disruptions and enhance safety performance.

 

Effective risk management is a continuous process, and by fostering a culture of safety and risk awareness, the likelihood of incidents is minimised whilst personnel, assets and the environment are better protected.


Remnant life assessment/extension

Understanding the remaining useful life of subsea assets is crucial for informed decision-making and long-term planning. Remnant life assessment and extension services utilise advanced techniques and predictive modelling to evaluate asset condition, assess degradation mechanisms and determine remaining service life. This enables you to optimise asset utilisation and minimise unplanned maintenance activities.


Fitness for service assessment

Ensuring that subsea assets remain fit for their intended service throughout their operational life is essential for maintaining reliability and performance. Fitness for service assessments evaluate the structural integrity and functionality of assets, taking into account factors such as material properties, environmental conditions and operational loads. By identifying any deficiencies or vulnerabilities, timely corrective measures can be implemented to extend asset longevity.


Planning for every scenario

Successful asset integrity management begins with meticulous planning and preparation. Whether it's developing comprehensive integrity management plans or providing expert advice on materials selection and procurement, our team can support every stage of the asset lifecycle.

 

At The Impulse Group, we are committed to helping subsea oil and gas companies reduce risk, enhance operational efficiency and maximise production through our comprehensive asset integrity management services.
