Teams Engineering provides Direct Assessment (DA) solutions for unpiggable and difficult-to-inspect pipelines, offering an engineering-based pathway for evaluating and managing pipeline integrity where conventional in-line inspection may not be practical or technically feasible.

Our DA capability is supported by our broader experience in Asset Integrity, pipeline engineering, inspection, reliability and field execution. We are also participating in the development of the DA market in Nigeria, working with qualified Nigerian and international technology partners to deliver practical integrity solutions for challenging pipelines

Our DA capability includes:

• External Corrosion Direct Assessment (ECDA)
• Internal Corrosion Direct Assessment (ICDA)
• Stress Corrosion Cracking Direct Assessment (SCCDA)
• Integrity assessment of unpiggable and difficult-to-inspect pipelines
• Data integration, threat identification and engineering assessment
• Field verification and integrity recommendations

Our capabilities are supported by our broader experience in Asset Integrity, pipeline engineering, inspection, reliability, and field execution, enabling us to address pipeline integrity challenges from an integrated engineering perspective.

We are also actively participating in the development of the Direct Assessment market in Nigeria, where a DA solution has been successfully applied by our Nigerian partner, Brisktrade, in collaboration with Jee Engineering of the UK, on an offshore pipeline originally operated by ExxonMobil and now operated by Seplat following ExxonMobil's divestment. Brisktrade has also obtained NUPRC approval to deploy the technology in Nigeria.

Creating a New Path for Unpiggable Pipelines

For operators with pipelines that cannot readily accommodate conventional in-line inspection, Direct Assessment can provide an additional pathway for understanding and managing integrity threats.

Our objective is to bring together internationally proven DA methodologies, local asset integrity expertise, and Nigerian field capability to deliver practical integrity solutions for pipelines that have traditionally presented inspection challenges.

Teams Engineering is committed to expanding its Direct Assessment capability and collaborating with qualified technology and engineering partners to provide specialized DA solutions for the Nigerian oil and gas industry and the wider West African market.
