Decommissioning
Using a unique blend of proprietary chemicals SafeClean efficiently clean and remove deposits, coatings, marine vegetation, low-level radioactive sediments, Mercury (Hg) and other environmentally hazardous and non-environmentally hazardous compounds from oil and gas processing systems.
Decommissioning of outdated oil and gas production assets
Outdated oil and gas production assets often contain significant amounts of hazardous materials such as mercury, benzene, LRA/Norm, and other toxic substances. SafeClean addresses this challenge by using a closed-loop chemical removal system, which enhances the efficiency and safety of the decommissioning process. This method prevents exposure to hazardous materials and radioactive content, safeguarding human health.
During the decommissioning of offshore assets, SafeClean employs the same proven equipment, chemicals, and methods that were successfully used during the asset’s production phase.
Cleaning In Place (CIP)
The processing system can be chemically cleaned both before an infrastructure shutdown and after the asset has been taken out of operation. For maximum cost savings during decommissioning and to minimize human exposure to hazardous materials, the most ideal solution is to perform a chemical flush as the last step before personnel leave the platform.
Additionally, the processing system can be cleaned using CIP (Clean-in-Place) on the processing components after they are no longer operational.
Regardless of when the system or components are cleaned with CIP, the client will experience significant time and cost savings compared to other cleaning methods.
A preferred decommissioning partner
SafeClean AS operates two state-of-the-art facilities dedicated to cleaning and handling waste for the oil and gas industry. At these facilities, SafeClean AS offers services such as chemical and mechanical cleaning of oil country tubular goods (OCTG) and ultrasonic cleaning of oil and gas processing components.
Additionally, SafeClean AS is Norway's leading actor in handling low radioactive materials and other hazardous substances from the oil and gas sector.
