CORROSION MANAGEMENT COOPERATION
agreement (SAA) for the joint deployment and commercialisation of BHGE’s real-time software and sensor-based predictive corrosion management (PCM) solution.
S
GS and Baker Hughes, a GE company (BHGE) have announced a strategic alliance
Leveraging the capability of the IIoT, PCM will enable asset owners to increase their ability to monitor their facilities, and detect and predict corrosion issues using real-time data powered by BHGE’s ultrasonic sensing technology and advanced analytics. François Marti, SGS COO North America, and Holger Laubenthal, CEO of Inspection Technologies for BHGE, signed the SAA at a recent conference. PCM generates wall thickness
and temperature measurements from Rightrax PM ultrasonic sensors placed on critical equipment such as pipes, tanks and vessels; the solution
applies advanced analytics, resulting in real-time assessment of data that has traditionally been gathered through risky and time consuming manual inspections. While particularly valuable to oil & gas downstream, petrochemical, and upstream asset operators, PCM can help any industry segment challenged by corrosion- related risk. PCM is one essential tool to help asset owners benefit from enhanced plant reliability and integrity programs, while maximising operational safety and extending asset life.
