SGS Expert Panel Discuss AIM and Demonstrate Advanced NDT Techniques(firmenpresse) - On May 7, 2012, SGS successfully conducted an expert panel discussion on Asset Integrity Management (AIM) along with advanced NDT techniques’ demonstration session at the Regent Plaza Hotel in Karachi, Pakistan.
SGS Promotes Understanding of Theoretical and Practical Asset Integrity Management
SGS is committed to serving local industry through various seminars, workshops and technical demonstrations in which plant owners and operators may discuss asset integrity management issues they face with leading industry authorities.
The SGS presentation focussed on asset integrity management solutions designed to maintain asset “fit-for-service” condition by implementing effective asset management programs to ensure maximum productivity, reliability, technical integrity, safety and regulatory compliance.
Live SGS NDT Techniques
Furthermore, SGS provided a live demonstration of NDT techniques used to maintain the safe and efficient operation of equipment and other assets by detecting defects which could cause hazardous situations and severe property damage. These early detection methods applied by SGS specialists ensure perpetual compulsory compliance with international standards. SGS non-destructive testing services conduct complete or sample examinations of assets using well-designed procedures and highly-trained, certified NDT inspectors. In short, SGS comprehensive range of non-destructive testing monitors asset integrity, detects defects and irregularities before they result in costly damage or non-compliance, saves time and money with fast and effective testing throughout the lifespan of assets and equipment, and ensures safe and reliable facility operations.
A Special Event
Discussion sessions culminated into fruitful conversations with participants, including CEOs, Managing Directors, Deputy Managing Directors, Maintenance and Inspections Managers, and Maintenance and Inspections Engineers from all the major industries, and distinguished panelists sharing experiences, knowledge, research and suggestions regarding business related questions and exchanging advice on enhancing operational safety and strategies to maximize integrity and production. SGS extended this unique opportunity to provide insight into the latest fit-for-purpose inspection technologies and to boost confidence in asset reliability and functionality.
Live demonstrations of advanced non-destructive testing techniques were conducted throughout the day, allowing participants to attend at their leisure. Blue prints of the advanced NDT techniques and their applications were displayed and explained. Since the session was led by SGS NDT specialists, engineers and technical experts, attendees were not only given the opportunity to observe the technique being performed but also had the chance to access these highly-skilled professionals and to speak candidly with them regarding specific business and asset questions and concerns. Some of the techniques demonstrated were long range ultrasonic testing, time of flight diffraction, phased array, remote visual inspection, eddy current testing, ultrasonic-IRIS, creep head wave inspection, MPI with battery operated yokes and fluorescent lights, in-situ metallographic testing, remote UT through UT crawler, and magnetic flux leakage.
At the conclusion of the conference, participants were well informed about the basic and essential requirements for conventional and advanced NDT, appropriate applications of NDT techniques and services, NDT pre-requisites and limitations, operating procedures of NDT techniques, ASNT / PCN requirements for qualified operators, and the basic criteria for in-house qualification of NDT examiners.
In the end, SGS had achieved the goal of creating a forum in which business professionals could meet each other and have planned discussions and spontaneous talks regarding asset integrity issues facing the industry and current solutions. Thanks to the diversity of the panel, participants were able to connect with members of similar interests which resulted in a better understanding of discussion topics.
