VERECO's unique UT WM+CD in-line inspection tools contain 2 measurement systems - UT wall thickness measurement and crack detection sensor arrays.
These tools provide the most comprehensive and complete data on the pipeline condition after just one inspection run - synchronized and aligned.
COMBO tools have been successfully run worldwide and are available for pipeline sizes starting from 14" and higher.
Running COMBO tools is advantageous in both economical and operational aspects, especially in case of gas lines inspection requiring significant resources and man-hours to arrange liquid batches and related facilities
Combined ultrasonic wall thickness measurement and crack detection inspection offers a comprehensive evaluation of pipeline integrity in a single run, since both types of sensors are installed emitting signals at different angles. This advanced technique utilizes high-frequency sound waves to accurately measure the remaining wall thickness while simultaneously identifying surface-breaking and subsurface cracks.
By integrating both capabilities, operators can detect corrosion, erosion, mechanical damage as well as other types of metal loss along with critical flaws such as stress corrosion cracking, HIC and other cracks and crack-like anomalies. This approach enhances efficiency, reduces downtimes, allowing comprehensive assessment with minimal disruption to operations
Our equipment is duly certified by the notified body in accordance with the requirements of Directive 2014/34/EU - ATEX as specified in "Specifications and requirements for in-line inspection of pipelines" issued by POF (rev. 2021) . Thus our tools are safe to use in the exposive areas and VERECO as an in-line inspection services provider complies with the highest industry standards ensuring safe and environmentally friendly approach to any job
