The Hose Inventory Management solution is based on OCIMF guidelines and customized by KOTUG to the Client’s specific site and operational requirements, endorsed by our marine hose manufacturing Alliance Partners.

Hose Changeout

Hose change out is required as per OCIMF guidelines and in addition, needs to be replaced when damaged, obsolete or due to extreme events.  Such service includes:

• Installation
• Disassembly or assembly strings
• Flushing
• Removal
• Launch or recovery
• Towing
• In Situ Testing

Emergency Pipeline Repair Services

Our focus is on providing the emergency response service to repair pipelines in the greater intertidal zone where conventional open water and land-based ERS machinery can’t reach / or function efficiently. The objective is to minimize the environmental impact and loss of production associated with unplanned events associated with pipeline integrity failures or accidental damages by using appropriate machinery and proven repair techniques to identify, isolate, contain, expose, repair / replace, restore and rehabilitate the site.

The ERS services consider the following main categories;

• Intertidal Zone
• Deep Water
• OSR
• Fire Fighting
• Emergency Tow

Pipeline Solutions

Our focus is on providing pipeline cleaning, dewatering, de-oiling, flushing and fluid separation services, particularly for unpiggable pipelines and pipelines with sensitive linings, using elastic products.  The products are environmentally friendly and easily disposed of as they break down into non-invasive component elements.

We ensure the pipeline is filled correctly with preservation fluid and regularly monitors the condition thereof to ensure the protection of the pipeline during a preservation period.  The use of elastic pipeline products assists the filling of the pipeline with first oil to result in minimal mixing of the preservation fluid and first oil as well as it removes/cleans the pipeline before first use.

The pipeline solution services include the following main components;

• PLEM Integrity Management
• Pipeline Preservation & First Oil
• Cathodic Protection
• Free Span Correction
• Scouring

Interface Management

On complex EPCI (Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Installation) projects consisting of various subcontractors, consultants and stakeholders, we provide the interface between all parties to ensure successful completion of the projects, in particular during the commissioning phase, by focusing on the overall objective and not just the objectives of the specific element of the project. It provides for efficient and effective completion of the project and continuity into the operations phase.
