Inspect the asset without shutting down the facility
Non-destructive testing (NDT) gives you an efficient way to inspect equipment without shutting down or entering a facility, so uptime and productivity stay intact. Unlike destructive testing, NDT methods do not materially affect the integrity of the asset under inspection.
Our techniques detect and quantify specific damage and structural integrity. Ultrasonic testing (UT) detects and sizes active flaws, corrosion and erosion. Inspection needs are seldom at ground level, so our NDT services include at-height work, confined spaces and container crane structural inspections at ports around the world.
Industries we inspect


At height, in confined spaces and over water
Our inspectors work where the asset is: on container cranes at ports, inside vessels and tanks, on structural steel and on aircraft components. Radiographic examination leaves a permanent record of the inspection, so you can document an asset before and after treatment and through each stage of its operating life.
A project often begins with a visual inspection. Our team establishes the extent of existing damage and recommends the next step for a more in-depth examination.
