Underwater PEC probes are specifically designed to detect corrosion hidden under marine growth or coatings, without surface preparation, in offshore applications such as risers, jetty piles, caissons, underwater piping systems, and conductor inspections.
Underwater probes can tackle deeper offshore applications. They are watertight down to 100 m (330 ft), can be used, through a long extension cable, with Lyft® in grid-mapping mode. The status LEDs embedded in the probes ensure better control and synchronisation with the topside inspection team. The probes can scan metals as thick as 100 mm (4 in), as well as insulation and marine growth as thick as 300 mm (12 in).
