ICCP retrofit

Otech is one of few specialists worldwide in retrofits of cathodic protection systems. A fully functional cathodic protection system is vital for protecting the submerged structure of any installation. 

Our ambitions to reduce client's overall maintenance costs has led us to develop specialized turn-key solutions for retrofits of submerged structures and lifetime extension upgrades converting sacrificial anode protection for ICCP systems. 

An Impressed Current Cathodic Protection system vs Sacrificial Cathodic Protection system provides a maintenance free diver or ROV friendly solution for up to 20 years, reducing maintenance costs for the owner by not having to replace submerged sacrificial anodes during any periodic surveys.

Mooring systems

Mooring systems

Turret and buoy mooring systems either integrated into an FPSO, FSO or SPM and permanently fixed to the seabed can present challenging environments for repairs and modifications. Being at the center of production and often with variables such as offloading operations, maintaining such assets, require unique planning. Otech provides services relating to engineering, preparations, repair and maintenance where conventional methods or water depth for WROW access is limited or hook-up testing and systems verification. Our strong competence from projects involving risers, chain connectors, bearing systems, fluid transfer systems allow for detailed planning and minimal operational impact when maintenance or repairs is required.

Through high level operational procedures and innovation, we are able to deliver safe and effective services with no environmental impact.Through high level operational procedures and innovation, we are able to deliver safe and effective services with no environmental impact.
