Semco Maritime Corrosion Detection

Client: Semco Maritime (offshore/marine services) Domain: Industrial corrosion detection

Project Overview

AI-powered corrosion detection system for offshore and marine infrastructure inspection, demonstrating Trifork's capability in harsh industrial environments.

Relevance to YPF

Capability	Semco Deployment	YPF Application
Environment	Offshore, harsh conditions	Desert, dust, extreme temps
Detection	Corrosion patterns	Leak patterns, equipment degradation
Visual Analysis	Surface condition assessment	Asset integrity evaluation
Integration	Enterprise reporting	SAP PM work orders

Technical Approach

Detection Methodology

• Surface condition classification
• Corrosion severity grading
• Progression tracking over time
• Prioritized maintenance recommendations

Accuracy Achieved

Metric	Result
Detection Rate	>90% for visible corrosion
False Positive Rate	<10%
Severity Classification	4-level grading

Transferable Learnings

For YPF Use Cases

1. Mechanical Integrity Evaluation (Use Case #15)

   • Surface condition assessment methodology
   • Degradation pattern recognition
   • Severity scoring approach

2. Thermal Anomaly Correlation

   • Heat signature + visual correlation
   • False positive reduction through fusion

3. Enterprise Integration

   • Automated reporting patterns
   • Work order generation logic

Environmental Considerations

Factor	Semco Challenge	YPF Challenge
Lighting	Salt spray, marine haze	Dust, glare
Motion	Ship/platform movement	Wind
Access	Offshore logistics	Remote locations
Conditions	Corrosive atmosphere	Extreme temperatures

Trifork's experience with challenging industrial environments directly applies to Vaca Muerta operations.
