Balmoral Subsea Test Centre
The Balmoral Subsea Test Centre offers a comprehensive range of test
procedures including hydrostatic, mechanical and laboratory testing.
Although predominantly used for in-house testing and development
work these facilities and services are available to external customers.
Hydrostatic testing
Substantial investment has been made in improving and expanding the
Balmoral Subsea Test Centre which now offers the largest commercially
available hydrostatic vessel in Europe. Upgraded vessels, software and
procedures are in place offering independent testing for all types of
subsea equipment to 7000msw equivalent.
The hydrostatic vessels use air driven liquid pumps and can accommodate
electric, hydraulic and instrumentation connections. Each vessel can be fitted
with chart recorders, pressure and temperature data loggers providing
highly detailed results for analysis.
In common with all the other vessels, PV6 is available for third party testing.
