Turnkey Cathodic Protection Projects

We have over 30 years of unsurpassed knowledge and experience in cathodic protection and corrosion prevention products. Our team of experts in India, together with an extensive group of affiliates in other parts of the world provides:

Field Survey
Design
Installation
Supervision
Commissioning
Monitoring & Maintenance
Consultancy and Specialist advice

Our approach is based on meeting the specific needs of EPC contractors who are executing cathodic protection packages as part of a major project. As an experienced cathodic protection company that is approved by most of the major operators, we are strongly positioned to work with EPC contractors to validate their cathodic protection system designs. This can be done as part of a tendering process and then the agreed scope can be executed under suitable commercial terms.

EPC Project Lifecycle

Seamless Integration

Corrosion control engineering is a critical aspect to maintaining the service life of investments in assets such as well casings, refinery, storage facility, transporting pipelines or a port. Therefore, it is important that corrosion prevention mechanisms, systems and programs are deployed in time.

We provide corrosion advisory services. This typically encompasses evaluation of existing corrosion mitigation strategies or the development of these strategies. We offer services where we can write up new performance specifications for corrosion protection. We can investigate and advise on issues effecting overall durability of structures such as cross country/city gas pipelines, storage tanks, well casing, reinforced concrete and other industrial assets

We are acutely aware of the design and schedule issues around the integration of a cathodic protection package into an EPC project. Once we are awarded a project, we adopt a rigorous design and project management approach while working closely with the EPC contractor to ensure that the cathodic protection system is successfully integrated into the client's overall project.

Operational Speed & Accuracy

Fast Track Accurate Execution

Our expertise in cathodic protection system design, strong supplier relationships and in-house manufacturing capability means that the delivery period for critical equipment is reduced. As a result, the design of both the cathodic protection system and the overall plant can be much further developed before material orders are confirmed. This reduces errors in construction and improves operational integrity.

AssetCon is committed to providing cost-effective service designed to ensure our customers receive the correct products, technologies and applications the first time and every time. Our Cathodic Protection wing can provide project management service covering site feasibility survey, design, engineering, installation, commission and hand over of the project within the stipulated time period.

AMPP / NACE / ICorr Standards

Design Consultancy

AssetCon Engineering Divison is ready to assist with your specifications and material selections. With reference to your specified international standards, our AMPP/NACE/ICorr certified CP specialists will develop cost effective solutions to ensure your assets are fully protected and fit for purpose.

We can also assist EPC contractors in performing site surveys and basic cathodic protection system design in order to produce well-defined project scope documents that allow for efficient cathodic protection project tendering and execution.

Operating throughout the Asia and Middle East, AssetCon taps into the expertise of a team of highly qualified engineers and a wide portfolio of developed solutions.

Asset Longevity & Remote Telemetry

Monitoring & Maintenance

AssetCon’s monitoring and maintenance programs are designed to help the clients to reduce costs and improve their competitive market position. Our approach is to provide solutions which allow companies to focus on their core business, while we take care of their facilities and assets.

For customers that have existing or newly deployed cathodic protection or corrosion monitoring systems, we can take over the monitoring and maintenance of these systems on an annual basis or through long term contracts where we ensure your systems continue to provide corrosion protection.

We can retrofit your systems with remote monitoring and control modules and routinely check up on your systems without a single visit to your site!

Root Cause Diagnosis

Trouble Shooting

"Troubleshooting is our specialty and passion."

If your production assets are at risk or underperforming, we have technical specialists with the expertise and experience to deliver practical solutions to your problems.

Sometimes our role can be as simple as bringing a fresh perspective. More often we need to apply our deep understanding of the engineering of corrosion and cathodic protection.

Regardless, there is no doubt that the insight we have gained - from thousands of engagements across different industrial situations, plant/equipment configurations and process conditions - enables our people to find the root cause of any equipment failures, AC/DC interference issues or corrosion problem.

How you can benefit:
Identify "root cause" sooner
Reduce uncertainty
Make more informed decisions
Manage risk
Access to expertise
Mitigate the Problem
Ensure Service Life
ECDA / ICDA Methodology

Direct assessment

Direct assessment can be External Corrosion Direct Assessment (ECDA) or Internal Corrosion Direct Assessment (ICDA). Direct assessment is a structured process used as an alternative to pigging it is performed in four stages:

01
Pre-Assessment
Collection and evaluation of historical data and pipeline characteristics
02
Indirect Inspection
Use of over the line survey techniques or internal flow and slope assessment to determine high risk areas for excavation
03
Direct Examination
Excavation and inspection
04
Assessment
Assessment of defects and definition of repair and inspection plans

Our ECDA team is capable to carry out over the line surveys to determine the depth and position of the pipeline, assessment of CP system effectiveness, coating failures, current requirement and attenuation test. The direct/indirect inspection techniques involve;

CIPS surveys
DCVG surveys
Electromagnetic surveys
CAT / ACVG surveys
Soil resistivity surveys, Soil/Water Chemical analysis
Bell Hole examination
RBI & Integrity Intelligence

Risk Based Inspection & Failure Analysis

Risk Based Inspection (RBI) combines the likelihood of failure due to degradation with the consequence, informing the choice of inspection intervals and methods.

RBI can be used to confidently extend inspection intervals and to target inspection methods at the right damage mechanisms, which carry the most risk.

RBI is most effective when inspection intervals are reviewed based on actual equipment deterioration. Due to the very large volume of data, business intelligence solutions form an important part of the review process.

AssetCon can help gather and maintain the data needed to optimize an RBI program. We can do the initial review, prepare inspection work packs and advise on inspection intervals and methods.

Failure analysis serves to determine remedial actions, or design improvements, to prevent recurrence of failure after replacement (or repair) of failed equipment, and thus the prevention of further undesirable safety and economic consequences.

Failure analysis can provide impartial and consistent diagnoses of the sequence of damage. This capacity is typically required when you need to confirm whether failure was induced by equipment service history or by manufacturing defects.

We can help you make sense of inspection data though custom developed business intelligence solutions.

Personnel Development & Qualification

Training and qualification seminars

Depending upon enduser specific requirements, we can provide seminars for the training and qualification of personnel.

Our range of this service includes:
Management / executive appraisal programs
