Hazard detection experts Groveley Detection has supplied three custom-made gas detection aspirators to SEC AS based in Norway.
The single and dual channel aspirators were fitted with H2S detectors and will be used on Statoil's Statfjord B platform. Statfjord is one of the oldest producing fields on the Norwegian continental shelf, and the largest oil discovery in the North Sea.
GDA-aspirators use minimal compression fittings which help reduce maintenance costs by reducing leak paths. These compression fittings should never need altering - no other aspirator manufacturer offers such a system. The GDA-aspirators will be utilized to monitor gas turbine exhaust ducts.
Statoil have a number of GDA-aspirators on other platforms in the North Sea including Statfjord C, Kvitebjorn and Troll A.
