Storage tanks are equipment with infrequent maintenance periods, so they require continuous external inspections, to have a better control of their conditions during the time they are in service, minimizing or avoiding unexpected failures that generate operational delays and Unplanned emergency maintenance.
This article presents current technologies, tools and procedures for diagnosing the condition and inspectability of natural gas pipeline systems.
Summary Laser Induced Plasma Spectroscopy (LIBS) represents one of the most useful techniques for the selection and identification of materials. This article describes a brief
Summary. Brief dissertation about the characteristics of the Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) inspector and the peculiarities of our work as industrial inspectors; which is not only
Acoustic Emission (EA) is a very versatile NDT method; during the evaluation, the structure is not required to be out of service. The application of this technique has generated great advances in the reliability and mechanical integrity of assets in the business sector.
Thermography is one of the most common methods used by the Equipment Inspector in plants in service, to verify the existing conditions of any asset.
