About
Dr. C. J. Forrest is a leading authority in subsea inspection and integrity management, with a specialized focus on the non-destructive evaluation of flexible risers used in offshore oil and gas production. His most notable contribution is the development of "RiserSure," an automated deployment system for digital radiography that enables high-resolution, in-situ inspection of these critical components. This work addresses a major industry challenge: the harsh subsea environment accelerates fatigue in flexible pipes, making regular, reliable inspection vital for preventing catastrophic failures. By automating the imaging process, Dr. Forrest’s system improves both the safety and efficiency of integrity assessments, reducing the need for costly and risky manual interventions. Although his highly specialized work has garnered 4 citations to date, its impact is deeply felt within the subsea engineering community, where it has set a new standard for practical, field-ready inspection technology. His research bridges the gap between advanced imaging techniques and real-world operational constraints, making him a key figure in extending the safe service life of offshore infrastructure.
