Halfwave lands inspection contract for Nord Stream 2
Friday, Jan 12, 2018
Halfwave has been awarded a contract to design and build 48” ART Scan® in-line inspection tools for Nord Stream 2.
The
ART Scan® tools will be used to inspect the 48” twin gas pipelines in
the Nord Stream 2 project. The length of each of the twin pipelines will
be over 1,200 km, representing a challenge well-suited to Acoustic
Resonance Technology (ART).
The pipeline wall thickness, long range,
and high accuracy capabilities of the ART Scan® tools were key factors
for selecting this technology solution for the Inspection.
“This
is one of the largest and most exciting contracts that we have been
awarded, and we are pleased that Nord Stream 2 AG has recognized the
added value the ART technology provides,” said Halfwave CEO Paul Cooper.
He believes this contract shows the value that Acoustic Resonance
Technology provides and new market opportunities for the technology.
“After
a very diligent technology evaluation process, it is very rewarding to
be recognized by Nord Stream 2 AG as their leading technology provider
and preferred supplier of pipeline inspection services,” said Cooper.
