World Pipelines,
NDT Global, a leading supplier of ultrasonic inline inspection (ILI), acoustic resonance technology (ART), and advanced data analytics are proud to announce they have been awarded the contract to complete a baseline inspection survey for Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) AG, headquartered in Baar, Switzerland.
This 878 km large-diameter gas pipeline system possesses many challenging characteristics, including mountainous terrain, high elevation profile, high wall thickness and a complex subsea depth profile. NDT Global's ART Scan™ technology manages all these challenges, while seamlessly combining wall thickness, geometry, and mapping survey capabilities into a single inspection.
Willem Vos, Head of Product Management comments, "NDT Global are excited to begin this baseline inspection program with Trans Adriatic Pipeline. This award further illustrates that gas pipeline operators recognise the advantage of high accuracy UT inspections and further solidifies the future of Acoustic Resonance technology in the global gas pipeline market."
