Force Technology has introduced a new generation of its P-Scan ultrasound scanner for subsea inspections. The new P-Scan 5 can be configured for a wider range of geometries and asset integrity applications, including regular inspection of offshore wind turbine subsea structures, submerged pipelines, flowlines, subsea templates, and manifolds.P-Scan 5’s extended modular platform now enables Force Technology’s inspection teams to acquire data from previously inaccessible parts of compact subsea infrastructure that feature the tightest, most inaccessible geometry. Whether deployed by divers or a remotely operated vehicle (ROV), Force Technology can now deliver more complete reports on a submerged structure’s condition, based on data acquired by phased-array scanning featured in P-Scan 5. The new generation P-Scan system for subsea scanning features ideas and capabilities from Force Technology’s P-Scan system for wind turbine blades.
