While you may think that corrosion is one of the biggest risks that marine pipelines face, anchor and net damage actually account for more risk in deeper waters, and vessel collisions account for still more in shallower areas. There is no sensor technology currently available to help find where pipelines are at a distance. Even
Read More...In the oil and gas pipeline industry, there is nothing more important than ensuring the safety of the products, equipment, and employees. Submar’s philosophy is simple: if a job cannot be done safely, it should not be done at all.

As part of the Avalon Beach Subdivision Roadway Stabilization, Erosion Control, and Monitoring Plan being worked on between commissioners and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, $68,000 was approved to create and expand protection measures at the Indian Bayou.
Read More...Recently, scientists have begun discovering that the seafloor is eroding in much the same way as the land loss now occurring on the coast of Louisiana. This can mean a detrimental loss in the wake of powerful waves, hurricanes, and flooding to the offshore and inland infrastructure.
Read More...Submar is the leader in pipeline erosion control for the oil and gas pipeline industry. Pipelines are at risk of pipeline exposure caused by wind and water erosion. Pipelines, like the ones featured here, are exposed over time by seasonal flooding and wind erosion. To address these challenges, Submar employs proven pipeline exposure remediation techniques,

In 2017, Submar installed a special system of articulating concrete revetment mattresses in New Mexico: Armadune mats, which are designed to work in desert environments. The mats’ tapered cells help collect sediment while the excelsior matrix collects moisture and allows root system development. Tate Salas, our Southwest Regional Sales Manager, is conducting a post-construction site assessment

Wildfires are often under-looked as a threat to pipelines but can cause significant damage, especially when it comes to erosion and altering a landscape. Fortunately, there are some tools available to the industry that
