The Perfect Pair For Subsea Inspection, Repair And Maintenance
Thriving from its roots in marine inspection services, Cygnus has been a trusted brand for extremely reliable and easy-to-use ultrasonic thickness measurement (UTM) equipment for infrastructure above and below water.
Cygnus ROV UTM - The only ROV Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge with live A-scan.This dedicated ROV-mountable ultrasonic thickness gauge is purpose-built for measuring metal thickness in the harshest subsea conditions, up to 3,000m deep. Equipped with Cygnus’ Multiple-Echo technology and Echo-Echo measuring modes, it fits the bill for accurate measurements through coatings, as specified by Classification Societies - reducing time and costs. With the integration of Live A-Scan, users can achieve advanced verification of measurements through detailed visual analysis at the topside. Combined with a high-performance piezo-composite probe and auto-selection of an optimal measuring mode, this ultrasonic thickness gauging equipment delivers exceptional corrosion/thickness inspection accuracy and efficiency.
Amongst its many practical features, the Cygnus ROV UTM has an extra trick up its sleeve. The P50 Probe Handler is cleverly designed to self-align the ultrasonic probe onto straight pipes, from 50mm/1.97in diameter to flat surfaces. The spring-loaded probe and V-shaped block ensure the probe is positioned correctly and accommodates different pipe diameters. When used with an ROV manipulator arm, the gimbal allows the probe to move to align with the straight pipe surface. In often poor visibility environments, alignment can be extremely tricky and time-consuming, so under the client’s watchful eye, this saves precious time and money.
Once the probe is sitting correctly on the surface, the process is speeded up by the automatic selection of an optimal measuring mode for the best results; quick and reliable measurements are supported by visual verification of measurements through live A-scan.
Cygnus Mini ROV - The ideal solution for areas inaccessible to divers.Many subsea structures sit in tight spaces, extreme depths or poor visibility, making accurate thickness gauging very difficult for divers. For instance, as the search for oil and gas is forced into deeper waters, subsea pipelines are becoming unsafe for divers to reach, yet regular inspection remains crucial. Not to mention, hot, corrosive fluids running through cold pipes trigger fast cooling and threats of rupture with damaging environmental consequences.
The Cygnus Mini ROV Mountable thickness gauge can facilitate critical preventative inspection. Specially designed to be mounted onto small/observation ROVs with or without a manipulator facility, it allows the operator to carry out ultrasonic thickness measurement (UTM) in areas previously unfeasible using larger ROVs or divers. With the renowned ‘Multiple Echo’ technique at its core, it can achieve extremely fast and accurate measurements through coatings, requiring minimal surface preparation. It is paired perfectly with small ROVs for subsea inspection, repair and maintenance (IRM).
