Non-destructive inspection of oil pipelines and equipment

Course Overview

Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) is a fundamental technique in the oil and gas industry to ensure the safety and operational efficiency of pipelines and oilfield equipment. NDT allows for the detection of defects, cracks, and corrosion in pipes and equipment without the need to disassemble or damage them, thereby helping to reduce downtime and improve operational efficiency. This training program aims to equip participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively utilize non-destructive testing techniques in the oil and gas industry, focusing on the latest tools and methods used to ensure safety and quality.
