NDT & Ultrasonic Testing
Detect today. Prevent tomorrow. Advanced non-destructive testing for marine, offshore and industrial assets, with qualified inspectors and class-accepted reporting.
We inspect. We detect. You sail with confidence.
Hidden corrosion and weld defects sink budgets before they sink ships. Our NDT team identifies defects, measures material thickness, assesses corrosion and verifies weld quality, giving owners and class the data to act early.
We support dry dock and in-service inspections, CAP programs and steel renewals with modern equipment and inspectors qualified to recognised standards.
