Vår Energi and CoreMarine have extended the deployment of the CoreIntegrity digital integrity management platform on Goliat FPSO offshore Norway.

The renewed agreement builds on several years of work covering mooring system monitoring, integrity verification and operational decision support on the floating production, storage and offloading vessel.

According to CoreMarine, CoreIntegrity has developed from a standalone monitoring tool into a wider operational support system. The platform now brings mooring data, wave radar, draft sensors and inspection records into one centralized digital environment.

The system has also supported improved mooring load verification methods and fatigue assessment programs through updated calibration and data validation workflows.

CoreMarine said the next phase is expected to add functionality for riser monitoring, automated model calibration, expanded fatigue tracking and enhanced survey interfaces to support offshore re-tensioning operations.

Future upgrades are also being aligned with NORSOK standards and could support broader deployment across additional offshore assets.

CoreMarine CEO Ben Fitzgerald said digital integrity management is becoming more important as operators work to improve operational reliability, reduce risk and extend offshore asset life.

Goliat FPSO, located in the Barents Sea, remains one of Norway’s key producing offshore assets and has become a focus for offshore digitalization and integrity management work.
