ProTek™ Composite Passive Fire Protection to be presented at ONS Stavanger August 22nd -25th.
Solent Composite Systems Ltd (SCS) manufacturer of ProTek™ passive fire and blast restraint systems will exhibit at the 17th ONS Conference and Exhibition in Stavanger August 22nd- 25th 2006. SCS will be exhibiting on Stand 935/4 located in Hall J, within the Scottish Development International Pavilion
The SCS ProTek™ PFP system meets all current Norsok requirements for jet-fire, pool fire and blast protection. The ProTek™ enclosures are typically used for ESDV/actuator protection must also withstand wind and wave load acceleration movements under extreme climatic conditions. The high insulation properties of the ProTek™ system ensures minimum temperature rise, thus providing essential integrity of the equipment functioning.
Recently Statoil specified ProTek™ for the Norne FPSO and the Snøhvit LNG plant in Hammerfest. The flexible design of the ProTek™system allows penetrations of cables and pipes, without compromise to clashes with existing equipment. The ProTek™ enclosures are designed with low weight access panels for easy maintenance and rapid low cost installation. ProTek™ has a major life-cost advantage over traditionally used soft jacket systems which tend to deteriorate over time, and thus have a higher lifetime cost than rigid enclosures such as ProTek™
ProTek™ is manufactured from an advanced composite panel system which is lightweight and has wide design versatility. Being virtually inert, there is zero corrosion risk and outstanding weather resistance, thus offering a maintenance free life for at least 30 years, with no pollution risk. The fire performance is certified by Lloyds and DNV and will withstand a two hour jet fire test at 0.3 kg /sec gas release, and blast tests up to 1.5 barg. ProTek™ enclosures fulfil the Norsok sound dampening requirements at a value exceeding 30DB
In addition to ESDV/actuator protection ProTek™ is used for fire and blast walls, marine fire partitions, underdeck/splashzone and flexible riser passive fire protection as well sub-sea structures and encapsulations. SCS expects its composite engineering expertise to be widely utilised in the growing sub-sea gas exploration market
