NDTScan provides advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) solutions tailored for oil and gas. Our services ensure accurate, compliant, and efficient diagnostics across all sectors, from aerospace to infrastructure. With cutting-edge equipment and over a decade of experience, we deliver certified inspections that minimise downtime and maximise safety. Trust NDTScan for reliable, data-driven reporting that enhances your decision-making and operational excellence.
NDTScan protects the safety, efficiency, and environmental integrity of oil and gas operations by delivering advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) services onshore, offshore, and across processing facilities. From pipelines and pressure vessels to platforms, refineries, and storage infrastructure, we assess asset integrity, detect hidden defects, and prevent catastrophic failures without interrupting critical operations.
Our inspections are essential for operational continuity, regulatory compliance, and environmental protection. We detect corrosion, cracking, weld defects, wall thinning, fatigue damage, and material degradation that threaten safety, production, and asset value. Using ultrasonic testing, radiographic inspection, magnetic particle testing, drone surveys, and advanced acoustic emissions monitoring, we deliver comprehensive asset intelligence to operators, engineers, and regulators.
We don’t just scan—we prevent leaks, protect lives, and optimise the performance and lifespan of oil and gas infrastructure worldwide.
Protecting Energy Infrastructure from Source to Supply
Oil and gas assets operate under extreme pressures, temperatures, and corrosive environments. Early detection of material weaknesses, corrosion, and structural fatigue is critical to preventing unplanned shutdowns, environmental incidents, and major financial losses.
NDTScan provides the forensic asset intelligence required to maintain compliance with stringent international standards including API, ASME, ISO, and HSE regulations, helping operators maximise uptime and safeguard communities and environments.
How We Survey Oil and Gas Assets
Our services extend to offshore platforms, FPSOs, drilling rigs, refineries, LNG terminals, subsea installations, pipelines, storage tanks, and pressure systems. Our scanning and testing equipment is field-proven, intrinsically safe where required, and capable of deployment in harsh offshore and hazardous area environments.
We work flexibly around maintenance shutdowns, operational windows, and inspection campaigns. Our reporting includes defect detection, corrosion mapping, wall thickness surveys, fitness-for-service evaluations, and recommendations aligned with statutory inspection regimes.
Our oil and gas sector survey techniques include:
- Ultrasonic Testing (UT) and Phased Array (PAUT): Detects internal flaws, corrosion, weld defects, and wall thinning in critical assets.
- Radiographic Testing (RT): Provides high-resolution imaging of welds, pressure vessels, and structural components without disassembly.
- Magnetic Particle and Dye Penetrant Testing: Reveals surface-breaking cracks and defects in pipelines, pressure vessels, and offshore structures.
- Drone Inspection: Enables safe, efficient aerial surveys of flare stacks, risers, platforms, and tanks without shutdowns.
- Acoustic Emissions Testing: Monitors live structures for signs of crack propagation and active defects during operation.
- Thermographic Imaging: Detects insulation failures, leaks, and thermal anomalies in process equipment and pipelines.
