    DNV GL leads 7 new ‘collaborative projects’ in North America

    04 May 2016, Sweetcrude, Houston, Texas – In a concerted drive to find smart solutions to safely reduce complexities and cost in the North American oil and gas industry, DNV GL is leading seven new joint industry projects (JIP) from the region in 2016. The initiatives will support overall efficiency efforts in the pipelines, wells and subsea, umbilicals, risers, and flowlines (SURF) sectors.

    Key focus areas for DNV GL in 2016 will be centerd around solving challenges around standardization, operations (OPEX services), safety, environment, regulations, and performance.

    “Our collaborative projects are pivotal in strengthening the industry throughout the Americas and helping it move forward and out of the difficulties we are currently facing,” said Peter Bjerager, executive vice president, Oil & Gas – DNV GL Region Americas. “As an independent third party we are uniquely positioned to provide a neutral ground for collaboration.”

    DNV GL is inviting industry players to take part in the following JIPs: extended application of corrosion resistant alloys; guidance for qualifying materials in compliance with API 17TR8 HPHT design guidelines for subsea equipment, increased consistency for sour service testing and assessment, and sour HPHT fatigue testing for clad subsea components.

    The company is also inviting players to take part in prediction of internal flow induced vibration of complex subsea pipework, jumper VIV instrumentation and field measurements – expanding ongoing JIP and safe assessment of embedded flaws in sour pipelines

    According to a recent research report published by DNV GL1, one-third of North American respondents are concerned that they do not have a strategy in place to maintain innovation in a declined market. However, 31% see greater involvement in JIPs as a priority over the next 12 months, while four in ten want to increase collaboration with other industry players (40%)
    The report also found that six out of ten (60%) respondents agreed that operators will increasingly push to standardize their approach globally- up from 42% in 2015. Only 9% expect an increase in spending in R&D and innovation, a figure that has more than halved in two years from 20% in 2014.
