System Verification & CVA

2H Offshore performs independent third-party verification of offshore structures including risers, flowlines and fixed and floating offshore wind systems for operators and developers around the world.

Our extensive experience in design, fabrication, and installation enables us to conduct verification activities for all types of offshore systems such as SCRs, TTRs, hybrid risers, flexible risers, fixed wind piles, floating wind mooring lines and power cables, minimum facility platforms, and subsea flowlines. We are also one of the only companies to conduct CVA activities for gas lift umbilicals.

We have performed independent third-party verification of offshore structures across the globe including the US, Guyana, offshore Africa and Asia. For systems in US waters, this is carried out as a certified verification agent (CVA). Independent verification is a requirement of the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) for certain offshore structures. Under 30 CFR 250.910(B)(1)(i) and (2)(i), pipelines connected to floating platforms are subject to the platform verification program as associated structures. Similarly, renewable energy and alternate uses of existing facilities in the outer continental shelf are also subject to CVA requirements per 30 CFR 585.
