Advanced ROV-installed insulation covers successfully deployed in Azerbaijan

A prominent Italian Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) customer required high-temperature subsea insulation covers to fit around various steel structures and be installed by a remotely operated vehicle (ROV). The solution needed to be lightweight, ROV-compatible, and thermally efficient (up to 92 °C) to ensure reliable insulation over a 25-year service life at a water depth of 470 metres.

C25 ideal for major SURF Project within the Santos Basin

Our customer required subsea insulation in Brazil for a large number of SURF structures and jumpers for HTHP (high temperature high pressure) conditions. ContraTherm® C25 was chosen for its excellent thermal properties and long in-service track record. Additionally, the customer has a long history of delivering successful projects in global locations using AIS' in-house application team.

47 PFP + CSP jackets / blankets delivered and installed for Coral South project

Our customer required 47 CSP/PFP jackets/blankets on a Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) project situated close to 250 km North East of Pemba, Mozambique. There were design complexities due to protrusion, support, and adjacent structures impacting space for fitting, and a lightweight material was required for high-positioned items. However, our ContraFlex® jackets/blankets ticked all the relevant boxes, so we provided a complete solution.

CASE STUDY

AIS combines ContraTherm® C25 with engineered clamping solution to enable heavy lifting loads on jumpers in Brazil

Our customer, a major EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) company in Brazil required a clamping solution due to heavy lifting loads during the installation of several jumpers. From design to execution, AIS delivered a turnkey solution for the client to assist with the installation. Having worked with this customer on a previous subsea insulation project, AIS was trusted to deliver a solution.

Highlights

Trusted solution

This major award is part of a broader field development plan, granted in part due to previous ContraTherm® C25 project successes in Brazil.

Flexible approach

This project highlighted the advantages of AIS' flexibility and tailored approach. The scope of work includes a wide variety of structures to be insulated using C25. AIS also designed clamps as a tailored engineered solution for a specific client need.

Local team

The solution was provided by our local team of Brazilian applicators.

Solution

Working with the customer to understand their load requirements, AIS utilised FEA (Finite Element Analysis) to design tailored nylon lifting clamps to protect insulation at lifting points, preventing any potential damage during installation. This unique solution was made possible by our extensive track record and understanding of our materials behaviour, combined with our in-house engineering capability.

Results

From design to execution, AIS delivered a turnkey solution for the customer. This continued to strengthen our longstanding relationship with major EPC companies and field operators in Brazil. Are you in need of an insulation solution for jumpers? The combination of ContraTherm® C25 and tailor made clamps are ideal for specific needs where the lifting load of SURF structures are a concern.
