Facing the constant rise and fall of water, challenging weather conditions and corrosive environment, both fixed and floating offshore structures are exposed to a range of threats in and around the ‘splashzone’.

The integrity management of critical infrastructure such as caissons, conductors and risers in these areas can be a significant challenge and cost to asset owners, particularly on mature assets. Often unseen or undetected, these integrity issues are frequently located in difficult to access areas underdeck or around the ‘splashzone’.

The inspection, repair and maintenance of critical infrastructure in and around the splashzone requires specialist personnel, equipment and services.
