Sealane Inshore, alongside Metec Group and Shepherd Offshore, has played a key role in the successful installation of Phase One of the galvanic anode cathodic protection system at Neptune Energy Park on the River Tyne. This project underscores Sealane’s commitment to preserving important local infrastructure.
Project Details: Galvanic Anode Cathodic Protection System
The system comprises 245 stand-off anodes, each weighing 115kg, designed for a 25-year lifespan to combat corrosion effectively. This installation is critical in protecting the infrastructure from the challenges posed by the marine environment.
Sealane Inshore’s collaboration with Metec and Shepherd Offshore ensured the installation ran efficiently and safely throughout February and March, with no incidents and minimal disruption to ongoing operations.
Collaborative Success Among Local Companies
Paul Wheeler, Technical Director at Metec, stated:
“This project represents yet another successful venture in partnership with Sealane Inshore. Together, we’ve designed, manufactured, and installed multiple cathodic protection systems along the Tyne, reinforcing the area’s infrastructure.”
Ryan Wilkinson, Director at Sealane Inshore, shared:
“Working closely with Metec Group and Shepherd Offshore continues to be a rewarding experience. Their expertise and cooperation are vital to the success of projects protecting the Tyne’s infrastructure.”
The Importance of Cathodic Protection
Cathodic protection is essential for preventing corrosion of underwater metal structures, especially in harsh marine conditions. The galvanic anode system installed at Neptune Energy Park will ensure the longevity of the infrastructure and reduce future maintenance costs.
Looking to the Future
Sealane Inshore is proud to be part of this vital project and remains committed to supporting the protection of the River Tyne’s infrastructure. The company looks forward to future opportunities to work alongside local partners to deliver high-quality, sustainable solutions.
