Innovation Gateway @ PETRONAS
Pain Points:
Concerns exist about the long-term integrity of composite overwrap repairs in Oil & Gas, requiring reliable monitoring of both the repair and the underlying carbon steel pipe.
Requirements:
Need an effective, field-deployable inspection tool for accurate and repeatable assessment of both the carbon steel pipe's remaining wall thickness and the composite overwrap integrity, providing comprehensive data for ongoing monitoring across various pipe sizes and applications.
Winner:
Sonomatic Ltd.'s "Integrated DRS and Microwave Field Inspection Tools" - combining Dynamic Response Spectroscopy (DRS) to assess steel thickness and Microwave technology to evaluate overwrap integrity and the pipe's external surface, enabling comprehensive and ongoing monitoring for future deployment with PETRONAS.
