PRE-ASSESSMENT IN-LINE INSPECTION SUPPORT

In-line inspection (ILI) success begins with proper planning. And proper planning requires practical experience, knowledge, and knowhow gained from years of experience running smart tools.

Our pipeline integrity professionals perform due diligence to justify an operator’s decisions for selection of the right assessment method (ILI or something else), the right ILI tool technology, and the right ILI tool run interval. In addition, we offer comprehensive, customized ILI procedures that help to ensure first-run success, maintain health and safety standards, and ensure the delivery of high-quality inspection data.
