Special Services
Beside project services, special services as described below are required in order to check CP system, the status of protected objects, to investigate on special corrosion problems or interferences, which might harm the steel object.
For these tasks, special measurements, techniques and long lasting experience can be provided by us, such as:
Regular monitoring and routine maintenance
GCP is providing this service to a large number of clients in Germany for many years. The
company always has greatest concern for health and well-being of systems / installations
under its periodic surveillance and...
Remote monitoring and control service
In addition to skilled maintenance technicians, the company provides remote monitoring
and control system for new or existing CP-systems. Our engineers design, install and
maintain the highest quality systems by using wire- or wireless communication systems...
Intensive survey
The basic objective of these surveys and investigations, is to determine whether or not
does exist a limitation which is not visible to the "naked eye" of routine system monitoring
surveys but...
Stray current investigation
Effects of stray currents from direct current (DC) sytems (railways, tramways, mines HVDC
transmission, cathodic protection etc.) are so well-known that investigation and
implementation of remedial measures against them...
Pearson survey
Based on method first introduced by Mr. J. M. Pearson, the company has versatile
equipment and manpower to carry out this survey to determine...
Fault location
Cathodic protection systems may have faults which could be observed after the start-up of
the system. These faults reduce or prevent the...
Survey of subsea pipelines
The company provides its services for the external survey of subsea pipelines in
collaboration with experienced and well-equipped marine survey companies...
Close Interval Potential Survey-CIPS
In order to analyse the external corrosion of buried pipelines, pipe/soil potential
measurements are made. Pipe/soil potentials are normally measured at fixed test points
spaced about 1 km to 5 km along a pipeline...
Computer based calculation of AC induced high voltage
Effect of alternating current is a matter of serious concern for safety of pipeline,
connected equipment and operating personnel. This problem has become more serious
now than what it was in the past due to rapid increase in...
Computerized geophysical soil survey
The determination of electrical soil resistivity to assess the corrosivity of soil and designed
performance groundbeds, especially deep groundbeds protection systems...
Data management software
Each software program is tailored for clients under consideration of specific requirements
and the structure of CP-systems, substantially eliminating paper work, document retention
and duplicate efforts...
Training and development seminars
Depending upon client`s specific requirements, the company provides services for the
training and development of manpower...
