Aberdeen-based Seatronics (
seatronics-group.com), which sells marine electronic equipment, has signed a partnership agreement with Force Technology, a Danish international technological consultancy.
This agreement will give Seatronics’ customers access to Force Technology’s Field Gradient Sensor (FiGS) system, which detects coating damage on exposed and buried pipelines and structures, accurately measures anode performance and helps to optimise cathodic-protection retro-fitting.
The FiGS system is said to offer substantial cost savings for the client as well as reducing inspection time. Leiv Laate, vice-president of Force Technology, said: “We are happy to partner up with Seatronics — a leading player in the market — and we look forward to fruitful co-operation for years to come.”
Phil Middleton, group managing director of Seatronics, said: “We are delighted to have partnered with Force Technology, and the FiGS system is a product that we are genuinely excited about.
“Seatronics has always been synonymous with the latest innovative technology, and we are actively developing a portfolio of equipment to help our clients in assessing the long-term integrity of their assets. We feel the FiGS system is unmatched in this respect, and we look forward to working with Leiv and his team.”
