Horizon Geosciences Expands Survey Portfolio

Research & Development

Horizon Geosciences has added Cathodic Protection (CP) surveys to its list of survey services.

CP surveys are used to assess and control the integrity of metal subsea assets as environmental and time related factors can cause corrosion of important offshore and near shore infrastructure and components, the company explained.

Horizon Geosciences Project Manager Sean Lowe said: “The CP System we use is very compact and robust. Due to its size, the CP can be deployed in smaller ROV models. It’s compatible with any ROV and industrial communication protocols (RS485 and RS232). It produces very low noise data, highly accurate results and can be mobilized in less than an hour with no surface equipment required.”

Horizon recently completed its first CP pipeline survey for Halul Offshore Services in Qatar.
