'Spotting the rot' - Permasense featured in the Economist
As part of a global PR strategy The Think Tank has been promoting a new wireless corrosion monitoring system for the oil and gas sector developed by technology company, Permasense. This new system is being welcomed worldwide, improving safety in oil refineries through continual monitoring of pipe corrosion in inhospitable environments.
As a part of this activity we have broadened our reach to great effect, culminating in an article published in the Economist this week.
The article comments, 'Oil men, then, should welcome an invention by Peter Cawley and his colleagues in the non-destructive testing research group at Imperial College, London. They have devised, and just finished testing at some of BP’s refineries, an automatic way of keeping an eye on the integrity of pipelines—and have helped set up a company called Permasense, to commercialise it.'

Building cities on the ocean
In a recent article the Economist looked at Seasteading or building floating cities.
The discussion features modern libertarians, such as Peter Thiel, one of the founders of PayPal, who have the dream of setting sail to found colonies of like-minded souls and to do so they have decided that they must build new cities on the high seas, known as seasteads.
The Economist says, 'It is not a completely crazy idea: large maritime structures that resemble seasteads already exist, after all. Giant cruise liners host thousands of guests on lengthy voyages in luxurious surroundings. Offshore oil platforms provide floating accommodation for hundreds of workers amid harsh weather and high waves. Then there is the Principality of Sealand, a concrete sea fort constructed off Britain’s coast during the second world war. It is now occupied by a family who have fought various lawsuits to try to get it recognised as a sovereign state.'
