Follow on Google News | SGS Conducts Long Range Ultrasonic Testing in NigeriaSGS conducts Long Range Ultrasonic Testing (LRUT) of risers for Chevron Nigeria. This non-destructive inspection method can be applied for critical pipe work, risers under clamps, insulated or even buried pipes whilst in operation.
At this point SGS offered to conduct Long Range Ultrasonic Testing (http://www.sgs.com/ Long Range Ultrasonic Testing, also known as Guided Wave Technology, is a newly accepted Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) method (http://www.ndt.sgs.com/ The Guided Wave Technology screens 100% of the volume of the piping inspected. A typical application of LRUT is the detection of corrosion and metal loss in pipes and pipelines. This technology is particularly suitable for inspecting pipes being in operation, insulated and even buried as this Non-Destructive Testing technique will supply the requisite data while minimizing the need for removing the insulation along the piping. Cost-effectiveness, safety and speed were decisive factors in favor of performing the Long Range Ultrasonic Testing for Chevron in Nigeria. As the inspection services of risers performed by SGS in early 2008 proved to be a great success, Chevron mobilized the SGS team to cover all the risers in the field, the process pipe work as well as road crossings. SGS is now monitoring all critical pipe work offshore, underground pipe work as well as road crossings in the terminal.
