January 09, 2017

ABERDEEN, Scotland -- Seatronics, an Acteon company, has formed a new partnership agreement with Force Technology, an international technological consultancy company.

The new agreement will provide Seatronics’ global customer base with access to Force Technology’s Field Gradient Sensor (FiGS) system. FiGS is a non-contact CP inspection tool, and the only tool on the market of its kind. The FiGS system offers a step change in CP integrity as it detects coating damage on exposed and buried pipelines and structures, accurately measures anode performance and helps optimize CP retrofitting. The beneficial features of the FiGS offers substantial cost savings for the client as well as reducing inspection time. 

Phil Middleton, group managing director, Seatronics, said, “We are delighted to have partnered with Force Technology, and the FiGS system is a product which we are genuinely excited about. Seatronics has always been synonymous with the latest innovative technology, and we are actively developing our portfolio of equipment, which can assist our clients in assessing the long-term integrity of their assets.”

The FiGS system will be available for rental throughout Seatronics’ global bases in Aberdeen, Houston, Singapore and Abu Dhabi.
