Phased Array Ultrasonic Inspection by SGS

Phased Array Ultrasonic Inspection by SGS

On May 9, 2008, SGS conducted Phased Array Testing for Daewoo E & C Co Ltd at the Gbaran Ubie Integrated Oil & Gas Project. SGS Industrial Services is the only company in Nigeria offering Phased Array Inspection Services.

SGS has successfully conducted Phased Array Inspection for Daewoo E & C Co Ltd at the Gbaran Ubie Integrated Oil & Gas Project for the first time in Nigeria.

Phased Array Ultrasonic Inspection is one of the latest weld inspection methods and offers significant technical advantages for weld testing. This new advanced Non-Destructive Testing Method reveals defects hidden inside a structure or weld by testing the structural integrity.

In early 2008, Daewoo E & C Co Ltd was awarded the contract to construct a gas plant for the Gbaran Ubie Integrated Oil & Gas Project in Nigeria. In order to ensure high quality construction work, Daewoo asked for the support of SGS Industrial Services, the only company in Nigeria offering Phased Array Inspection Services.

On May 9, 2008, SGS’ team of five experts carried out Phased Array Testing on the Gbaran Ubie Integrated Oil & Gas Project in Nigeria, scheduled to take 15 man days. The project comprised two phases. The first phase involved the Phased Array inspection of 155 joints of heavy wall line pipes and the second phase included the follow-up inspection of 300 joints that were recently welded. The priority objective of SGS' Phased Array testing was to inspect the welds for defects and to provide a reliability report.

The successful completion of SGS' work resulted in the contract with SGS Industrial Services being extended until the Gbaran Ubie Integrated Oil & Gas Project in Nigeria is completed.
