Oil and gas non-destructive testing (NDT)

Non-destructive testing (NDT) is an inspection and analysis technique used by the oil and gas industry, among others, to evaluate pipeline properties without destroying the serviceability of the original system. Surface corrosion, mechanical damage and cracks are the most common discontinuities detected by visual examinations.

As NDT managers or project engineers working for a utility company, you supervise the team of technicians in charge of collecting data during pipeline inspections. You must verify and analyze the results to provide the pipeline owner with the correct diagnosis.

For you, inaccurate and unreliable measurements can lead to faulty analyses that can have major consequences. To ensure pipeline integrity and reliability, you must make the right decision using systems that allow you to have accurate and reliable data.

With PIDT pipeline and plant evaluation software, you can rely on data collected during pipeline or plant inspections. Measurements are accurate and reliable, regardless of the operator’s experience and skills. In this way, you can get the correct diagnosis from nondestructive testing.

Technology is vital to obtain the best, user-independent, simple and fast results that allow us to meet objectives and overcome challenges.

Accuracy: With accurate and repeatable results, regardless of the quality of the measurement setup, environmental instabilities and user experience, measurements have never been more reliable.

User independence: since 3D scanning is not a technique but a tool, the results are independent of how the measurements are taken and how skilled the technicians are.

Simplicity: with plug-and-play devices, easy-to-use interfaces, pre-configured parameters and pre-defined workflows, operators can take measurements quickly and reliably.

Speed: with the highest measurement rate and simple setup, scanning to results occurs in minutes, saving valuable acquisition and analysis time.
