NDT Global has announced the publication of 'The Evolution of Ultrasonic Inline Inspection' white paper.
Guaranteeing the safe operational conditions of pipelines is paramount to any integrity management program. Intelligent inline inspection (ILI) tools are widely used throughout the industry to guarantee such safe operations. Ultrasonic technology (UT) is the most accurate and reliable iteration of ILI technology available today.
These inspection tools record data while travelling through the entire pipeline from launcher to receiver. By taking advantage of the highly accurate data offered by NDT Global, alongside the overall service offering, operators rarely need to make major concessions or adjustments to their pipelines.
This white paper explores technological advances that have been made to support ILI using ultrasonic technology, to include hardware and inspection improvements. It further examines the role ultrasonic modelling plays to support and optimise inspection results.
The white paper can be downloaded here.
