The RFMS pro- vides field measurements of stress and fatigue on drilling risers, wellheads, and other subsea systems in near real time. It significantly improves riser integrity management by using measured data and advanced algorithms at strategic loca- tions to reconstruct stress and fatigue damage along the entire riser. “We were contacted by one of the oil and gas majors,” says Company Principal, Kenneth Bhalla. “Their concern was safety and ensuring that the fatigue loads on their wellhead–which is the last barrier to the environment–were within design limits and that, under any and all circumstances, there would be no release of hydrocarbons into the environment. So from a green point of view, from a safety point of view, this is what the real-time, fatigue monitoring system performs.” That’s just one example of the type of solu- tions that Stress Engineering Services has been providing its clients since 1972.
