CP Monitoring

In collaboration with corrosion engineers, MEC Limited, The Aquatec Group has developed a variety of instrumentation systems for applications in Cathodic Protection (CP) and corrosion monitoring. Our systems have been installed on oil platforms, pipelines, jetties, and FPSOs from the North Sea to locations throughout the world.

Our joint portfolio ranges from the provision of cathodic protection design services, through design and supply of impressed current CP power supplies and monitoring instrumentation, to on-site commissioning, data gathering and analysis services. MEC pioneered the use of intelligent acoustic communication for the retrieval of stored data from in-situ corrosion monitoring data loggers. With the Acoustic Modem designed by Aquatec, this approach has become a cost effective and reliable method to monitor remote sections of pipeline or structure without using costly cables or risking diver intervention. Aquatec's latest acoustic technology and AQUAlogger data acquisition and logging systems also allow for a simpler, real-time, acoustically linked monitoring system to be installed, either on new or existing structures. We also have experience of integrating to the latest satellite technology, to deliver real-time reporting from the monitored site directly to your desktop.
