Integrity Monitoring System for Upstream Assets
Permasense, a provider of remote monitoring solutions to the global energy industry, has launched a new product for the real-time integrity monitoring of upstream oil and gas assets.
The ET210 Integrity Monitoring System delivers continuous wall thickness and temperature measurements from topside or surface equipment directly to desk, and will help improve the economics and safety of offshore operations.
Permasense’s ET210 system is engineered for safe, quick and simple online installation – the non-intrusive sensors are easily affixed to equipment with integral magnets. The technology is designed to measure metal wall thickness through external protective coatings – the integrity of the outer corrosion protection is not compromised by sensor installation.
Based on Permasense’s existing WT monitoring technology, the ET210 system delivers continuous measurements directly to desk, eliminating the costs and safety risks associated with manual inspection methods. The high quality and frequency of the data delivered offers users a real-time insight into the impact of operations – including flowrates, sand and acid levels, on equipment integrity. This information provides operators with a platform for enhanced decision-making to maximize production rates, minimize downtime, and reduce the risk of corrosion or erosion-related incidents.
