Beyond Conventional UT: How Advanced Imaging Is Changing Pipeline Integrity Evaluation
Pipeline operators rely on non-destructive examination (NDE) methods to identify corrosion, cracking, and other anomalies before they become larger integrity concerns. As assets age and operating conditions become more demanding, accurate inspection data plays a...
Understanding Variation in Pipeline NDE
The importance of accurate NDE characterization is evident from the repair decisions it ultimately drives. Accurate NDE helps operators verify ILI findings and determine the most appropriate course of action. Consequently, it serves as a final validation step before a...
