Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

Numbers of NDT services are increasing, while the Oil & Gas industry are allocating investments into additional industries; NDT and inspection has become a competitive industry on its own with tight constraints of time and money.

This training highlights the importance of proper NDT in facilities, human error and limitation, NDT/ASME/API standard appreciation and strategic execution of complementing disciplines from regular and advance NDT methods. Enrolling in this training will also bring you the skill to evaluate reports with elevated precision, introduce you to the renewed concept of cross referencing and show you the margin of utility between regular and advanced NDT methods. With new builds of equipment, regular NDT methods will no longer fulfil their functions. Industrial development has pushed even NDT methods to develop rapidly, and advanced NDT methods will take the lead.

For NDT, ignorance is not bliss. Enrol now in this 3-day masterclass and gain leverage on the improvingly competitive industry of NDT. Protect your facility and equipment from unwanted failures and accidents with NDT intelligence as a new resource.

Featuring two keynote presentations and full day site tour on day 2
