Water Stop Plugs
Project Description
IK Subsea engineered and supplied 32 ROV-operated water stop plugs, comprising 16 with a diameter of Ø300 mm and 16 with a diameter of Ø150 mm. These plugs were specifically designed to completely plug inspection holes on the leg of a North Sea platform. The Polypropylene plugs were made with spacer plates allowing for the wall thickness variations in the platform leg. Insertion was performed by ROV, with six elastomer friction knobs keeping the plugs in place during the deployment. The ROV then turned the locking latches, ensuring an effective barrier against water flow and debris.
