Using our broad knowledge of cracking globally, we supported the development of a suitable screening procedure. The work considered the following data:  

Results

We provided Core Group with the knowledge and procedure to assess a system for SCC. This would support Core Group to:

  1.   Screen an entire network.
  2.   Identify the key pipelines.
  3.   Monitor changes as further data is collected.
We found Frontline Integrity to have extensive technical knowledge in crack management and were a flexible and reliable organisation to work with
