Life extension studies for offshore facilities and structure with respect to the integrity of the structure is one that has come to stay. This analysis gives further profitability and service to facility owners outside the initially predicted assets life but within the service capacity of the structure/equipment/asset. This is because in designing and operating an offshore structure, certain parameters are over designed based on allowance on design codes so that the structures must serve the required life-giving room for alternate designs and redeployment of a replacement structure.
As a result of the residual value of the offshore structures and the over designing factor during FEED, it is possible that minor modification/maintenance could put more profitable service for operation without causing a major disaster. ALFJEDA ENGINEERS' understanding of the possibility of extension of facility life and the importance that asset integrity monitoring has developed the competence to ascertain the level of failure/utilization that is left after facility service life. We have our own labs, research engineers, partner researchers, bringing our operation subject-matter experts in from the field and testing everything we can get their hands on. “We are not afraid to get our hands dirty ‘’, as this knowledge is vital in project economics and the resulting knowledge is being shared which is the reason we collaborate.
