YEAR: 2012-2013
PROJECT: ZAKUM NORTH ISLAND
COUNTRY: ABU DHABI
COMPANY: NMDC
CLIENT: ADNOC
HISTORY:
NMDC was to build four oil islands on the ZAKUM site. Two with X-bloc ® and two with ACCROPODE ™ II.
IDMer, now CLAS inspectors assisted NMDC full-time.
THE KEY NUMBERS :
NORTH ZAKUM Island: 40,000 ACCROPODE ™ II of 4 m3.
THE MISSION :
IDMer has become CLAS intervened as an independent consultant with the mission:
Train all personnel in ACCROPODE ™ II specific safety.
Train ACCROPODE ™ II installation teams.
Ensure the interface between the company and CLI.
Establish and implement certification procedures.
Issue the certification documents.
PRODUCTION:
Production is calculated on the basis of actual installation hours. Stoppages due to bad weather, breakdowns and generally causes unrelated to the installation of X-bloc ® or ACCROPODE ™ II are not taken into account in this calculation.
NMDC used the ECHOSCPE associated with divers to pose.
ACCROPODE ™ II: 8 units per hour.
PROCEDURE:
The CLAS inspectors intervened full time in order to carry out several daily inspections and thus not delay the work by imposing significant dismantling.
The personnel responsible for installing the ACCROPODE ™ II have been trained and supervised continuously to maintain the highest level of safety and quality.
The inspections were carried out underwater by IMCA and HSE certified CLAS inspectors, who strictly apply the principles defined in the CLAS TECHNOLOGY COMPLIANT ™ trademark and out of the water by foot and by boat.
RESULT:
The work was delivered on time and received without reservation.
