At AMPP Annual Conference + Expo 2026, one of the leading events in the industrial and energy sector, ClampOn showcased its focus on non-intrusive monitoring technologies applied to asset integrity. During the event, Jacob DesAutels, General Manager of the company, explained how the firm has built a solid proposition based on ultrasonic sensors and solutions oriented toward operational reliability.
In this context, ClampOn's participation highlights the growing need for tools that enable operators to anticipate failures and improve maintenance management in critical infrastructure.
Since its founding in 1994, ClampOn has established itself as a global provider of smart sensors based on non-invasive ultrasonic technology. Headquartered in Bergen, Norway, with an international presence that includes offices in Houston, the company has developed an extensive portfolio oriented toward both surface and subsea applications.
Over more than three decades, the company has focused its efforts on research and development, which has enabled it to evolve its solutions and adapt to the changing needs of the energy industry. This track record has contributed to positioning it as a regular technology partner for operators globally.
At the core of ClampOn's proposition is the use of passive acoustic ultrasonic technology. This approach enables monitoring of crucial parameters without the need for physical intervention in pipelines, which reduces operational risks and facilitates installation.
The company's portfolio encompasses solutions such as:
As Jacob DesAutels explained, the differential value lies in the fact that all these capabilities are integrated under the same technological principle, which facilitates their implementation in different industrial scenarios.
On the other hand, one of the most relevant aspects of these solutions is their direct impact on operations. Continuous monitoring enables operators to understand the evolution of asset wear over time.
Consequently, this visibility facilitates:
Likewise, by eliminating the need for pipeline intrusion, downtime and risks associated with physical interventions are reduced. This translates into more efficient operation and better data-driven decision-making.
Now, developing sensors capable of operating in demanding conditions represents a significant technical challenge. Subsea applications or aggressive environments require robust and highly reliable solutions.
In this regard, ClampOn has dedicated years of work to the evolution of its products, successfully deploying sensors in both subsea and surface installations on a global scale. According to DesAutels, this accumulated experience has enabled validation of equipment durability, with operational cases spanning several decades.
This practical knowledge is crucial for meeting the demands of major operators in the energy sector.
In terms of positioning, the company stands out for its specialization and the consistency of its technological development. The combination of experience, continuous innovation, and portfolio expansion has enabled ClampOn to maintain a proposition aligned with the real needs of the industry.
Furthermore, the company has committed to complementing its existing solutions with new technologies, which strengthens its ability to offer integrated tools oriented toward maximizing operational performance.
Longevity in the market and relationships with international operators reinforce its credibility in a highly competitive environment.
Finally, ClampOn maintains an international structure that facilitates access to its solutions. From its headquarters in Bergen and its office in Houston, the company supports clients in different regions, enabling it to accompany projects across diverse geographies.
This global approach, combined with its technological specialization, consolidates its role within today's industrial ecosystem.
