Cathodic Protection Systems METAL THAT HA S BEEN E X TR AC TED FROM ITS PRIMARY ORE (METAL OXIDES AND OTHER FREE R ADIC ALS) HA S A NATUR AL TENDENC Y TO RE VERT TO THAT STATE UNDER THE AC TION OF OX YGEN AND WATER.

The principle of Cathodic Protection (CP) is connection of a metal to be sacrificed by turning the base metal into an Cathode and allowing the attached anode to deplete.

Imenco appreciates the complexity of subsea operations and the ever changing requirements. As Cathodic protection solutions need to adapt to project requirements, Imenco offers special anode package solutions that meet the strict project needs combined with the ‘ease of use’ that has come to be associated with Imenco “Smart Solutions”. Through client issued design requirements or through a solution development partnership, Imenco will ensure focus for operational success.

Torque Tool FOR E A SY INSTALL ATION OF IMENCO'S C ATHODIC PROTEC TION S YS TEMS A PURPOSE- BUILT TORQUE TOOL HA S BEEN DE V ELOPED.

The tool interfaces with the anode clamp by using a “bayonet” front-end to ensure the anode clamp is kept in position while the expansion bolt is being torqued up and the anode is fixed into its position. The torque tool can also be used to remove the anode.

Technical data (Torque tool): • Operating hydraulic pressure: 0 – 200 bar • Variable torque from: 100Nm • Max torque @ 200 bar is: 2000Nm • Weight in air: 35kg • Weight in water: 30kg • Standard equipped with ROV “Fish tail” handle

Standard Imenco anode baskets include the desired anode mass as well as a separate clamp port for transportation and optimal operational functionality. Wire length will be adapted to suit project requirements. Larger units in this style can be produced to suit larger applications.

Orbital Bracket GENERAL DIMENSIONS: 394 X 403X 200 ANODE MASS: 3 X 5KG

Where quick installation without the need for cabling in the area is desired, Imenco’s standard Orbital bracket surrounding the clamp unit is an effective solution for operational needs. Installation and protection are covered in one go.

Anode Sleds GENERAL DIMENSIONS: 2792 X 2792 X 2562 ANODE MASS: 450KG

For large protection applications, the Anode sled offers long life as well as a stable sea bed located solution. These units can be used as standalone sled units or connected together in series. Sled frames can be adapted to suit operational needs and placement restrictions. The unit is offered as standard in a box profile with shackle lifting points.

Typical Anode Installation BELOW IS AN ABBRE VIATED DESCRIPTION OF HOW TO OPER ATE THE ANODE REPL ACEMENT TOOL.

It is assumed that the ROV has conducted a General Visual Inspection (GVI) prior to commencement of the anode installation sequence and that all parts of the selected Anode Clamp grip positions have been cleared for debris or marine growth. It is recommended that the actual plate thickness is checked as part of the ROV pre-survey. If necessary, the plate grip jaws can be replaced, see separate procedure given in section 5. For torque tool operation details, see section 4. Reference is also made to the separate torque tool instruction manual. The following procedure describes the preparation work (Task 1-6) and the typical installation sequence.

Task

Description

1

Install the Torque Tool on the ROV.

2

Adjust torque to correct value.

3

Check the tool’s holding capacity by lifting the anode clamp (while eg: located in its parking holder.)

4

Place the anode clamps in ROV tool basket with the torque tool.

5

A securing line should be fitted to the anode clamp bracket.

6

Deploy the ROV and locate the Anode Clamp on installation site.

7

Ensure that the securing line(s) is connected between the anode clamps and ROV frame.

8

Caution: Ensure that the fingers on the tool end fully engage between the clamp fingers.

9

Lift the torque tool with the Anode Clamp attached.

10

Verify the clamp jaw to be fully engaged onto the plate edge. Fig. 3.1.

11

Apply pressure to operate the torque tool CW.

12

Keep the torque tool stable and verify the rotation.

13

Remove the torque tool from the Anode Clamp by pulling it straight off the clamp nut. Verify that the installation is correct by inspecting the clamp grip on the stiffener plate edge. Fig. 3.2.

14

Remove or cut any security line from the ROV frame and the Anode Bracket.
