Specially developed high strength concrete - called grout - can be injected into selected diagonal and horizontal topside and subsea steel members to prolong the lifespan of a steel jacket platform.

Scope of Work

The following activities are typically part of a complete jacket reinforcement campaign:

  • Qualification and testing of grout alternatives - pump ability and mechanical properties
  • Grout storage and loading
  • Survey and location management
  • Cleaning of grout connector area
  • Drilling and grout connector installation
  • Hose deployment & handling subsea onto the grout inlet connector
  • Grout mixing on deck and pumping
