Each year material corrosion and defects, if undetected and rectified, cause such problems as environmental pollution, risks to the health and safety of personnel, damage to property and loss of production. The financial cost of this to a company can be enormous and in some extreme cases disastrous to the point of bankruptcy.
   

Early detection of material corrosion and defects must be of paramount importance to any company wishing to prevent any of the above outlined problems. Utilising state of the art eddyMax® Eddy Current computerised technology is our solution. This is an inspection technique that has been proven on projects within the oil, gas, chemical, power generation and other industries both onshore and offshore in Europe, the Middle East, Asia and North America.
   

The technical advantages of utilising Eddy Current technology are

inspection of ferrous and non-ferrous metals
non-invasive inspection
remote controlled operation for inspection in high radiation areas
minimum pre-inspection cleaning preparation of the material surface
fast inspection rate - subject to access
high detection sensitivity
fast data retrieval
distinction between external and internal defects
on completing the work at site an immediate interim report is issued with plugging plan
user friendly colour mapped reports
monitoring progression of defects and corrosion for direct electronic recorded comparisons in order to enable realistic planned preventive maintenance
   
  and as such the resultant economic and operational benefits to the customer are very obvious.
