DNV GL has set up a joint industry project (JIP) in a bid to develop practical methods to minimise the risks and lifetime cost of steel wire ropes for subsea lifting applications.
According to the Norway-based ship and offshore classification society, 14 diverse industry players, especially oil and gas operators, have already signed up for the project.

DNV GL oil and gas CEO Elisabeth Tørstad said: "Over half of the industry executives we interviewed for our industry outlook report ‘Challenging Climates’ said they expect subsea technologies to absorb the strongest investment this year, to support exploration into new or challenging environments."
According to DNV-OS-E407, the new integrity management methods of steel wire ropes are said to form the basis for documentation of the safety of integrated systems.
Issues pertaining to system integration, monitoring, condition assessment, inspection, maintenance, lubrication and production will be included in project.
