site INSPECTION and corrosion assessment
We provide site inspection services dedicated to evaluating the corrosion condition of structures. Our expert team conducts thorough assessments using industry best practices to accurately gauge the extent of corrosion and its impact on structural integrity. Through detailed site inspections, we provide comprehensive reports that outline the current corrosion status, identify potential risks, and recommend appropriate maintenance or mitigation measures.
We specialize in thorough evaluations of pipelines, building infrastructures, foundation piles, and bridges. Our tailored assessments offer comprehensive insights, empowering proactive maintenance strategies to ensure resilience against corrosion challenges and optimize the longevity of your critical assets.
HYDROGEN CORROSION RISK MANAGEMENT
We specialize in the intricate realm of hydrogen embrittlement and hydrogen risk assessment. Our unique approach seamlessly integrates profound scientific insights with extensive industry expertise, enabling us to craft tailored solutions that efficiently mitigate risks associated with hydrogen-induced cracking.
Welding is a crucial part of pipeline construction, but it also represents a critical point of vulnerability in hydrogen pipelines due to the potential for hydrogen embrittlement. When welding materials that will be exposed to hydrogen, several factors must be carefully managed to avoid compromising the material’s strength and integrity.
In the context of hydrogen gas pipelines, we conduct a thorough review of welding procedures to ensure that the materials, processes, and post-welding treatments are suitable for hydrogen service. This includes evaluating the selection of appropriate filler materials, ensuring that welding processes such as TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) or SMAW (Shielded Metal Arc Welding) are carried out under controlled conditions, and confirming that the heat-affected zone (HAZ) is properly managed to minimize the risk of cracking. Our review process also involves verifying the use of pre- and post-weld heat treatments to relieve stresses and reduce the potential for hydrogen-induced cracking.
HIGH-TEMPERATURE CORROSION Testing
Our expertise in high-temperature corrosion assessment helps maintain the reliability and safety of steam and thermal power systems, supporting their continued operation and energy production. By thoroughly investigating corrosion challenges, we ensure that critical components withstand extreme conditions.
INTEGRITY PLAN DEVELOPMENT
We develop Corrosion Integrity Management Plans (CIMPs) designed to safeguard the integrity of your structures. Our approach includes a detailed assessment to identify corrosion vulnerabilities, followed by rigorous risk analysis to evaluate potential consequences and mitigation strategies.
