UK-based Spin Echo (SE) Limited, an OEM specialising in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) flow measurement, collaborates with the Astute Centre of Excellence to advance magnet shimming, potentially revolutionising permanent magnet Halbach arrays' applications in oil & gas, hydrogen transport, and healthcare. NMR, foundational for SE, offers precise fluid analysis, vital for efficient oil & gas and hydrogen integration. In A4I Round 10, novel shimming methods are pursued to minimise magnetic field errors and enhance homogeneity, promising a breakthrough in flow measurement accuracy. Targeting sub 500 ppm field errors could democratise accessible, low-cost MRI scanners, playing a pivotal role in early disease diagnosis and prevention.This collaboration not only holds the potential for transformative environmental, economic, and medical impacts but also aims at cost savings. Enhanced flow measurement accuracy in oil & gas could streamline production processes, leading to substantial cost reductions and improved sustainability practices. Moreover, enabling hydrogen integration into existing infrastructure with SE's technology could result in significant energy cost savings, fostering the growth of the hydrogen economy. As the project unfolds, it aspires to reshape industries while providing feasible solutions for budget-conscious industries, thereby driving a comprehensive positive impact.

总部位于英国的 Spin Echo (SE) Limited 是一家专门从事核磁共振 (NMR) 流量测量的 OEM，它与 Astute 卓越中心合作推进磁体匀场技术，可能彻底改变永磁体 Halbach 阵列在石油和天然气、氢运输方面的应用和医疗保健。 NMR 是 SE 的基础，可提供精确的流体分析，这对于高效的油气和氢气集成至关重要。在 A4I Round 10 中，寻求新颖的匀场方法来最小化磁场误差并增强均匀性，有望在流量测量精度方面取得突破。以低于 500 ppm 的现场误差为目标，可以使易于使用的低成本 MRI 扫描仪普及化，在早期疾病诊断和预防中发挥关键作用。这种合作不仅具有变革性环境、经济和医疗影响的潜力，而且还旨在节省成本。提高石油和天然气的流量测量精度可以简化生产流程，从而大幅降低成本并改善可持续性实践。此外，利用 SE 的技术将氢能集成到现有基础设施中可以显着节省能源成本，从而促进氢经济的增长。随着项目的展开，它希望重塑行业，同时为注重预算的行业提供可行的解决方案，从而产生全面的积极影响。
