Extending the life of offshore oil and gas platforms beyond their original design philosophy has resulted in measurement technology being adopted across a number of major projects.
With expectations that oil and gas fields may still be producing for another 25 to 30 years, work is now underway for the re-fit of measurement fasteners on existing offshore production infrastructure, such as heat exchangers and high pressure pipe work and flanges, but it is where new designs and engineering techniques have had to be used that the fasteners have been helping to break new ground.
