Crimson Midstream, LLC needed to repair a buckled pipeline in the Gulf of Mexico’s South Marsh Island Area Block 59. The deflection in the 10-inch crude oil pipeline was discovered during an in-line inspection.
The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) required the pipeline to be structurally reinforced due to its weakened cross section. Chet Morrison Contractors, LLC (Morrison) was hired to repair the damaged line and tasked Chapman Consulting with sourcing a custom fitting that included 3D scanning, engineering and drafting services.
