Inspection is critical for maintaining the safety and reliability of offshore structures. However, relying solely on spreadsheets for NDT reporting presents challenges that can undermine the effectiveness of the whole process. We are committed to improving Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) reporting in offshore asset integrity inspections by overcoming the limitations of spreadsheets. Read about how we are offering practical solutions to enhance accuracy, efficiency, and data integrity: https://lnkd.in/enQT566F

Safeguard your pipeline assets by conducting baseline inline inspections, a vital step in preserving their integrity. These inspections assist operators in developing a precise integrity management plan by providing a detailed evaluation of the pipeline's condition at the beginning of its operational life. This allows partners like NDT Global to establish a reference point for future inspections based on the pipeline's unique fingerprint.

Today is Groundhog Day. Thankfully testing your storage tanks isn't something that needs to happen every day over and over, however it does need to be done regularly. Following the guidelines set out by EEMUA 159, a once a year visual inspection on your above-ground storage tanks is all that is required. External NDT inspections on your storage tanks must take place every 5 years. Every 10 years you must carry out comprehensive internal NDT inspections on your storage tanks.

10 Important Properties of Ultrasonic Waves Property 1: Ultrasonic waves vibrate at a frequency greater than the audible range for humans (20 kilohertz). Property 2: They have smaller wavelengths. As a result, their penetrating power is high. Property 3: They cannot travel through vacuum. Property 4: Ultrasonic waves travel at the speed of sound in the medium. They have maximum velocity in a denser medium. Property 5: In a homogeneous medium, they travel at a constant velocity. Property 6: In low viscosity liquids, ultrasonic waves produce vibrations. Property 7: They undergo reflection, refraction and absorption. Property 8: They have high energy content. They can be transmitted over a large distance without much loss of energy. Property 9: They produce intense heat when they are passed through objects. Property 10:Like sound waves, ultrasonic waves are longitudinal waves that produce alternate compressions and rarefactions.

What is Non-destructive testing? 💡 Non-destructive testing (NDT) includes various test methods that are used to detect material defects and weaknesses that will manifest themselves over time. What the methods have in common is that they avoid reducing the equipment's physical properties. NDT is used as part of production or installation control to check that quality requirements are met. Equipment and components must be checked at regular intervals to detect any defects or wear. 📑 AQMA is an approved supplier for NDT on classification projects, in accordance with DNV class program for onshore & offshore. 🚢 #ndtinspection #maritimeindustry #ndt #onshore #offshore #ndtservices

The gentle kiss that makes a huge difference! When making-up rotary-shouldered connections (RSCs), it is important to pay attention to the ‘seal kiss’. Check out these tips to keep in mind when making up your connections: 1)       Seals should touch each other when hand, chain, or spinner tight; if they don’t, there might be a problem with your connections and you may need to investigate. 2)       When torque is applied, the energy stresses the connections to a desired level, creating a metal-to-metal seal. If the seal faces do not come in contact when hand, chain, or spinner tight and part of the energy is used to get the seal faces together, the connections might not receive the desired stress calculated for a given torque. 3)       Ensure your connections are cut by a licensed shop with good quality control procedures, that RSCs are inspected to a recognized industry standard by a competent NDE organization, and that your team applies good make-up practices. #QAQC #Connections #RSC #OilandGas #Drilling

🚢 Ensuring Marine Safety with NDT & UTG 🌊 In the maritime industry, Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) plays a vital role in maintaining the integrity of vessels, pipelines, and offshore structures without causing any damage. One of the most effective methods in this field is Ultrasonic Thickness Gauging (UTG). 🔍 What is UTG? UTG is a precise technique used to measure the thickness of a material—often metal—using high-frequency sound waves. This helps detect corrosion, wear, and defects in ship hulls, underwater pipelines, and marine structures. By identifying potential weak points early, UTG helps prevent costly repairs and enhances safety at sea. ⚙️ How Does it Work? A technician places a probe on the metal surface. Ultrasonic waves are transmitted through the material, and their reflection is used to calculate the thickness. This fast and reliable method helps engineers and maintenance teams monitor the health of critical infrastructure in marine environments. 🏗️ Why is it Important? In harsh marine conditions, structures are prone to corrosion and degradation. Regular NDT and UTG inspections ensure the safety, longevity, and operational efficiency of vessels and offshore installations, preventing accidents and maintaining compliance with maritime safety standards. #AIMMSGroup #NDT #UltrasonicTesting #Safety #Reliability #Inspection #QualityControl

YES, Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) is evidence-based. NDT techniques rely on practical information and scientific principles to evaluate the integrity and properties of materials and structures without causing damage. The results obtained through NDT methods are based on the analysis of physical evidence gathered during the inspection process through various testing methods. These methods provide quality and measurable insights that are used to make informed decisions about the condition of assets, their safety, reliability, and maintenance requirements. Thus, NDT is a crucial component of evidence-based practices in industries where safety, reliability, and quality are paramount.
