Oil & Gas
The Oil and Gas sector is the backbone of the global economy
Working in this industry combines extreme strategic importance with high operational risks making adherence to safety and quality standards an absolute necessity
Avoiding NPT (Non-Productive Time), which can cost thousands of dollars per hour.
Dealing with fluids and gases under high pressure and temperature (HPHT) increases the likelihood of explosions or leaks.
Operations often occur in remote deserts or offshore, making maintenance and rescue missions exceptionally challenging.
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)
Acts as the “Preventive Eye” of the industry allowing for equipment inspection without causing damage.
Detecting a small crack in a pipe and repairing it costs a fraction of what a full pipeline failure would cost in terms of environmental fines and Unplanned Downtime.
Ensuring the integrity of welds and materials before installation prevents the loss of expensive raw materials and man-hours
Due to the Cyclic Loading that drill strings endure, microscopic Fatigue Cracks develop NDT:
- Determine periodic inspection cycles based on operating hours or drilling conditions.
- Analyze technical reports to make informed Pass/Fail decisions.
- Oversee equipment repair processes to ensure they safely return to service.
- In drilling sites, the failure of a single component (e.g., a pipe connection) can lead to oil spills or blowouts.
-
NDT Objectives:
-
Early Defect Detection:The ability to inspect equipment without causing damage or affecting its serviceability, through:
-
Ensuring Reliability:Identifying cracks, corrosion, or welding flaws before they lead to catastrophic failure.
-
Compliance with International Standards:Verifying that all drill pipes and wellhead equipment can withstand extreme operational pressures.Insure that all process are o apply global codes such as ASME, API, AWS & etc.
-
Extending Equipment Lifespan:Monitoring corrosion rates precisely to determine the optimal time for preventive maintenance.
