Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), commonly referred to as NDE, is a qualitative methodology for identifying the presence of imperfections in new fabrications as well as verifying the condition of parts in service. In the oil and gas industry, which deals with exploration, drilling, extraction, and early production of hydrocarbons, and the petrochemical industry, which processes these hydrocarbons into petroleum products, NDT is crucial.
In between these stages, systems such as pipelines, tanks mounted on trailers, and ships are used for transporting raw liquids and products. All the equipment, piping, and storage in the upstream, midstream, and downstream areas of this industry must operate under various conditions, including high/low pressure, high/low temperatures, vacuum, static loading, and cyclic loading. The mechanical integrity of these components is essential to ensuring safety and efficiency.
Destructive testing methods like tensile tests and Toughness tests are used to assess the mechanical integrity of materials and joints. However, since 100% destructive testing is not feasible, large portions of the parts are tested non-destructively to locate any flaws that could affect their mechanical integrity. Pressure vessels, piping, storage tanks, and pipelines are all subjected to non-destructive testing during fabrication and are then pressure or load tested.
Enhancing Expertise with IITNDT PVT LTD:
At IITNDT PVT LTD, we recognize the critical importance of NDT in maintaining the integrity of these components. Our institute offers comprehensive training programs in various NDT methods, including those used in the oil and gas sector. We prepare students with the skills needed to conduct effective inspections, ensuring that they can handle the rigorous demands of the industry
In-service, these parts tend to deteriorate, and damages may occur due to operating scenarios. Non-destructive testing methods such as Ultrasonic Corrosion Mapping, Ultrasonic Thickness Gauging, Profile Radiography, ACFM, and Electromagnetic Testing are applied to detect and monitor in-service damages, predicting possible failures.
