Tritech RAMS monitors the integrity of risers and mooring lines on the Petrojari Foinaven FPSO

摘要

Tritech's Riser & Anchor Chain Monitoring System (RAMS) tool is being used to monitor the integrity of risers and mooring lines on the Teekay Petrojari Foinaven floating production storage and offloading vessel (FPSOs). Recently launched at Offshore Europe in Aberdeen, RAMS is a 360° riser and anchor chain monitoring system for FPSOs that uses Tritech's proprietary multibeam technology. RAMS is deployed beneath the vessel and monitors the presence, integrity, and position of mooring lines and risers 24/7 from a single sonar head. RAMS has been developed in conjunction with one of the world's leading international oil and gas companies, BP, who had a requirement for an automated system able to monitor the series of bend stiffeners, umbilicals and risers on an FPSO, pro- viding a warning system should the movement fall outside the design specification.
