Inspection Specialists Deliver More.

Remote inspection specialist AISUS continues to realise new inspection capabilities across multiple areas of its business as they move into the new year, adding external inspection, drilling riser services & machine learning, further cementing their position as leaders in splash zone inspections.

Providing the Oil & Gas and Renewable industries with the most advanced high-pressure cleaning, ultrasonic testing and remote visual inspection, AISUS has invested in technology and its human capital to ensure their customers are provided with industry-leading solutions for the increasingly complex challenges that they face.

AISUS has seen a considerable increase in its employee headcount over the last year, with the appointment of several industry experts as well as adding to its graduate pool, in line with its commitment to identifying and developing young talent. This investment has accelerated the growth of core divisions and enhanced their service offering to industry, with visual inspection and ultrasonic wall thickness measurement of Caissons, J-Tube’s and Risers now available to all of their customers.

Historically these inspection services have only been possible by accessing equipment internally in these structures, however, investment in R & D and technology has now allowed the business to develop an external solution that negates the need to remove internal operating equipment.

The bespoke tool is deployed using high-tech magnetic crawler robotics and provides the same capabilities as its internal counterpart, but also offers the addition of Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC) where required. Through the use of 4K subsea camera systems the Engineers are able to generate 3D models for assisting clients with further analysis of defects.

AISUS has also concentrated on the development of a data management system that will streamline their clients’ maintenance and inspection activities for splash zone related components. Using machine learning techniques, the condition of the components are predicted using the previous 10 years’ worth of inspection data. This also includes images and ultrasonic thickness measurements that have been gathered from many component types.

Further augmenting the current suite of tools, the AISUS team of in-house inspection experts have also created new bespoke equipment for inspecting marine drilling risers. AISUS’ drilling riser inspection tool allows for measurement of wall thickness, weld integrity, riser bolts, riser inserts and main flanges without the need to remove buoyancy or the stripping down of equipment. Deploying the class inspections can either be onboard or on-site utilising advanced inspection techniques to provide an unparalleled riser inspection service.

AISUS are an Aberdeen based organisation that offer a suite of remote inspection solutions which have been designed to solve key industry challenges. For further information please visit www.aisus.co.uk
