Overview

Marine structure surveys at Anglesey Marine Terminal are carried out by NDTScan, the Oxford based non-destructive testing company that works the UK coast with its own survey boat. Anglesey Marine Terminal harbour appears in the Department for Transport's freight statistics as a minor port, so commercial cargo still crosses its quays. Behind that traffic is a stock of steel piles, jetty steelwork, concrete quays and sea defences that lose section every year, and NDTScan's work is to measure how much and to say plainly what it means.

What NDTScan records at Anglesey Marine Terminal depends on the structure. On steel: wall thickness on a repeatable grid, corrosion maps of the thinned zones, pitting at the splash zone and grooving at the mud line. On concrete: reinforcement and cover by ground penetrating radar, carbonation and chloride depth, in-place strength, and every crack, spall and delaminated area located on a plan. On timber and cast iron: section loss, decay and fixings. All of it photographed and positioned so the next survey can be compared with this one.

A marine survey that stops at a page of readings has not done its job. NDTScan's Anglesey Marine Terminal reports carry the thickness data on the drawing, the corrosion maps, the concrete condition record and photographs of every defect that matters, with a plain statement of what was found and what was not. Where asked, a remaining-life estimate and a reinspection interval follow from the readings rather than from a rule of thumb.

NDTScan's advice to owners at Anglesey Marine Terminal is the same as on land: measure before you decide. A jetty with thickness data on a drawing can be managed, strengthened or replaced on evidence. One that has only been looked at from the deck will be closed or rebuilt on fear. The survey is the smallest cost in the chain, and the one that sets the size of every cost after it.

Scan before you repair. That is the standing advice for every Anglesey Marine Terminal client, and the reason NDTScan reports what the concrete contains before anyone specifies what to do about it.

Services at Anglesey Marine Terminal

  • Ultrasonic Thickness Testing Remaining wall thickness and corrosion mapping on steel piles, sheet piles, jetty beams, dolphins, lock gates, pontoons and hulls at Anglesey Marine Terminal, measured on a repeatable grid from the boat, the deck or the foreshore.
  • Concrete Condition Surveys Reinforcement and cover mapping by ground penetrating radar, carbonation, chloride and strength testing, and unit by unit condition recording on quay walls, sea walls, breakwaters, pier decks and slipways.
  • Drone and ROV Inspection Drone survey of decks, fenders, ladders and superstructure above the waterline, and inspection-class ROV coverage of the piles and walls that stay submerged, all located on one plan of the Anglesey Marine Terminal structure.

Marine Work at Anglesey Marine Terminal

Instructions at Anglesey Marine Terminal and along this stretch of coast follow the life of the asset: baseline thickness surveys of piles and jetties before a lease or a sale, corrosion mapping where an engineer suspects thinning, concrete condition surveys of quays and sea walls ahead of a repair scheme, investigation of a berth after a vessel strike, reinspection at the interval the last survey set, and independent surveys for insurers and legal teams after a failure.

NDTScan also surveys marine structures at Milford Haven, Holyhead, Newport, Cardiff, Swansea and Fishguard and every other port and harbour in Wales. The service is described in full on the marine surveys page.

About NDTScan

NDTScan is a specialist non-destructive testing company based in Oxford and led by Neil Smuts. Its marine work brings together ultrasonic thickness testing and corrosion mapping of steel, concrete scanning and condition surveys, drone inspection and ROV inspection, delivered from its own survey boat or from land. NDTScan is a Level 4 UKCSS Operator, the first in the UK to achieve that certification, and it attends Anglesey Marine Terminal and the whole of the UK coast from its Oxford base.

Yes. NDTScan surveys steel and concrete marine structures at Anglesey Marine Terminal and along the whole UK coast, attending from its Oxford base with its own survey boat where the structure cannot be reached from the deck or the foreshore.
With calibrated ultrasonic thickness gauges on a grid the engineer can repeat, after the surface is cleaned back to sound metal at each point. Pitted surfaces are read with care, because a probe can report the pit or the plate, and the report says which. Where thinning is uneven NDTScan maps it so the thinned zones show as shapes on the drawing.
Yes. Chloride ingress and carbonation depth are measured alongside reinforcement mapping and strength testing, because marine concrete fails from the inside and the surface rarely tells the whole story. The findings are recorded on the Anglesey Marine Terminal structure plan with the visible defects.
From NDTScan's own survey boat, from the deck, from the foreshore at low water, from a drone above the waterline and from an inspection-class ROV below it. The method is chosen for the structure and the tide, and the survey is planned around the tidal window.
On the drawing, not in a list. Every reading and every defect is located on a plan of the structure, corrosion maps show the thinned zones as shapes, and the text says what was found, what was not found and how confident each reading is. The next survey can be laid over this one to show the rate of change.
