Seatronics, an Acteon company and provider of marine electronic equipment, has formed a partnership agreement with Force Technology, an international technological consultancy company.
The agreement will provide Seatronics’ global customer base with access to Force Technology’s Field Gradient Sensor (FiGS) system. FiGS is a non-contact CP inspection tool and the FiGS system detects coating damages on exposed and buried pipelines and structures, measures anode performance and helps optimize CP retrofitting.
“Seatronics has always been synonymous with the latest innovative technology and we are actively developing our portfolio of equipment, which can assist our clients in assessing the long-term integrity of their assets,” said Phil Middleton, group managing director, Seatronics. “We feel the FiGS system is unmatched in this respect and look forward to working with [Leiv Laate, vice president, Force Technology] and his team”.
The FiGS system will be available for rental throughout Seatronics’ global bases in Aberdeen, Houston, Singapore and Abu Dhabi.
