Inspection of in service Ammonia storage tanks.

Inspection of in service Ammonia tanks is one of the exciting specialities of Force Technology and is rather unique technology and service in the global marketplace today. The technology covers processing and storage tanks and is designed to inspect Ammonia tanks without interrupting production processes (with significant cost benefits). A number of new global standards are being launched which will require regular testing of these storage vessels.

Drone Inspection

Force Technology has a well proven range of drone inspection technologies which are well proven in the international market place. In addition to this highly specialised and sophisticated service offering, Semfa has another new partnership with a company in Kazakhstan who have just completed a drone inspection project for the State electricity power supply company, which will form the basis for joint activities with Force for the addition of their technology for the oil and gas industry in particular. 

Advanced Sub-sea Inspection

A specialist area for Force Technology, especially with proven experience in Artic and other serve weather conditions globally. Force technology also have worked on a number of high profile projects in the Caspian and are seeking a permanent presence in the region.

FORCE Technology Field Gradient Sensor (FiGS®) is a state of the art non-contact CP inspection tool, that performs highly accurate measurements of electric currents in seawater, with a resolution and detection level that surpasses all other field gradient sensors available on the market. The sensitivity of the sensor enables the identification of corrosion problems and the characterization of CP system status on pipelines and subsea structures, even when buried. The figures below show a comparison between traditional CP techniques and FiGS for both exposed and buried pipelines & structures. It also shows the available data for each technique and the limitations.
