Non-destructive testing (NDT)

ATIS carries out the following NDT procedures:

  • Magnetic particle inspection (MPI): a magnetic field is used to detect discontinuities in ferroelectric materials, including iron, nickel and cobalt
  • Dye penetrant inspection (DPI) or liquid penetrant inspection (LPI): a low-cost inspection method used to detect defects in all non-porous materials, such as metals, plastics and ceramics
  • Ultrasonic testing (UT): short ultrasonic pulse-waves are used to locate internal flaws in steel and other metals and alloys, as well as concrete, wood and composites

Proof load testing

Proof testing is designed to demonstrate the fitness of a load-bearing structure. Proof tests may be performed before a unit enters service, prior to performing additional uses or to verify the functionality of an existing unit. Testing can be performed at the client’s site with calibrated hydraulic jacking kits or at our purpose-built testing facility with the capacity to carry out load tests of up to 200t.

Offshore equipment testing is generally carried out to the following standards:

  • BS1290
  • BSEN12079
  • DNV2.7-1 (including prototype testing)
  • DNV2.7-3
  • DNV2.2-2

Our experienced engineers are available to inspect and test the following equipment:

  • Offshore frames and units
  • ROV and dive systems
