EnerMech Tests Subsea Flowlines with STM
As part of a recent North Sea pipeline project, EnerMech were contracted to flood and hydro test offshore subsea flowlines. The testing operations were to be conducted in standard industry fashion by using a vessel-based downline spread. This meant the vessel would need to remain connected to the flowlines via the downline throughout the test period, adding to client cost. EnerMech Process, Pipelines & Umbilicals director, Les Graves, said, “We suggested an alternative to the client, using our innovative Subsea Test Manifold (STM) combined with a data-logger as an interface between the
