Halfwave won another contract for subsea inspection that will see its ROV-mounted ARTEMIS tool utilized on several major oilfield projects. ARTEMIS will carry out a re-inspection of 6-in., 10-in., and 14-in. subsea flowlines for DOF Subsea in Australia, where the data collected will be used to extend the expected life of the field.
The DOP Subsea contract is the fourth subsea inspection deal Halfwave has secured for ARTEMIS in 2019. A multi-national operator deployed the tool has been deployed offshore in the US Gulf of Mexico to inspect an unpiggable 8-in. coated pipeline situated in 7874-ft water depth. Two additional contracts called for the tool to inspect a 12-in. piggyback pipeline for AkerBP and to inspect a concrete coated pipeline for an Australian operator.
