E!113452 Cyclic and Extended Penetration CPT Tool

During the project period it has been carried prototype testing in the workshop of the all electric CAEPCPT tool. A total of 15,000 load cycles have been completed and the results are very positive. Most of the tests have taken place in a workshop. However, some tests have been performed in the hyperbaric test chamber to verify that the system works in a subsea environment. During the spring of 2022 pilottesting was done onboard the vessel MV Investigator. The results from pilot testing was good and we are now ready for commercialization of the final CAEPCPT tool.

Excess Engineering har hatt en jevn vekst i hele prosjektperioden. Og vi har økt antall ansatte fra 5 til 12. Prosjektet har økt vår kompetanse innenfor geotekniske havbunnsundersøkelser og bidratt til at vi har hatt mulighet å utvikle vår egen elektronikk lab samt nye produkter. "spinn off's" Vi har søkt flere patenter som er innvilget i Norge, og en jobber nå videre med internasjonale patenter.

The CEPCPT project has high ambitions. The production and development of the CPT and other related technologies that might be derived from the actual development, will create labor opportunities and more business in the areas where Excess Engineering and Geoquip Marine are operating. When the product goes global, the ties between Switzerland and Norway will strengthen and the profile of European technology as a whole will be raised throughout the world.
