Following on from earlier success in the Norwegian North Sea over the past two years, AIS is announcing another substantial project award for insulation covers.
Previously, AIS secured a Subsea Production System (SPS) contract for the same project in 2023/2024, and delivered insulation for Christmas Trees, Flow Control Modules, and Manifolds.
Requiring multiple highly engineered cover designs, AIS will supply over 50 removable covers to provide insulation to bulkheads and flanges. In alignment with the project’s requirements, these will be delivered in 2025 through to 2026.
These will be manufactured at AIS’ headquarters in Gloucester, UK, utilizing the high performance ContraTherm® C55-750-30. With a 25-year track record with major global operators, this material is proven to deliver excellent thermal properties while affording robust mechanical properties.
Neil Patrick, Subsea Sales Manager, commented: “It has been a great technical challenge to secure this award, utilizing our technical and engineering capability during the tender phase to ensure we deliver a bespoke solution to meet the client’s needs in a relatively short timeframe.”
ContraTherm® C55 is reputable solution based upon a phenolic resin system, providing advanced temperature resistance of up to 150°C and resistance to depths of up to 3000msw. With a range of applications worldwide, this is a testament to AIS’ commitment to protecting vessels and infrastructure offshore.
