Webinar Abstract

Title: Real Time Radiography for the Non-Destructive Testing of Pipeline Girth-welds

Date: Thursday, 31st May 2012

Time: 14:15 GMT+1

The safety and quality standards within the oil/gas industry is ever increasing to adhere to the modern government regulations that focus on the environment and the workplace.

Safety becomes a great challenge when using radiography for non destructive testing. The use of a radiation source is dangerous to personnel and hazardous to the environment. Standard film is not always able to achieve the quality required for industry standard specifications and it is difficult to manage and store.

What you can expect to learn:

How to increase production rates to maximize the efficiency of new build pipeline projects
How to achieve new expectations for personnel and enviroment safety in the workplace
How the requirements of inspection specifications can be surpassed
The latest technology of Digital Radiographic inspection of girth welds within the new construction pipeline industry.
