Pipeline inspection

NDT Inspection

Non-destructive testing (NDT) uses equipment and techniques to identify structural variations, minute changes in surface finish, the presence of cracks or other physical discontinuities, measure the thickness of materials and coatings, and determine other object characteristics, all without causing damage.

Choosing the right method and technique maximizes the “probability of detection” in non-destructive testing. Apave can help you with all your NDT projects.

Your key issues

Guaranteeing the integrity, reliability and health of your equipment, structures and installations from the design stage and throughout their lifecycle helps optimize operational performance, minimize breakdowns and guarantee user safety. Non-destructive testing is an effective method for detecting and characterizing the smallest defects without damage the target.

Our solutions

Apave has a well appreciated and internationally recognized reputation for its Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). Years of innovation and development efforts are the base of our experience and knowledge. Our wide range of NDT services in Conventional & Specialized methods are as follows:

FOCUS

Our NDT Methods

NDT integrates the principles of physics, chemistry and mathematics, and uses various forms of energy to gather precise information. The scientific underpinnings of NDT are essential to understanding the mechanisms involved, while the challenge is to select the appropriate methods and techniques to maximize the “probability of detection”.

Apave supports you in all your NDT projects, guaranteeing optimum performance and reliability.

Fast, reliable local support

in the Middle East

Middle East Map
Middle East Map
The Apave Group is an international leader in risk management, with 150 years of experience, and has been present in the Middle East for almost 25 years (in Kuwait, Oman, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, etc.). However, our highly mobile teams can travel to your construction sites anywhere in the country, and deliver unbeatable turnaround times. In Saudi Arabia, for example, we carry out inspections on over 6,000 buildings every year

Our teams are made up of highly qualified and experienced experts. Thanks to their advanced technical know-how, combined with their in-depth knowledge of the local regulatory framework, they carry out highly reliable and precise technical inspections, taking into account the specific requirements of the country, sector of activity and building concerned. 

Our other services

Fire prevention services
As the operator, owner or manager of a building, it is your responsibility to ensure that fire risks are controlled within your establishment at all times, right from the design stage. To do this, our Apave teams offer you high-quality, tailor-made support, wherever you are in the Middle East.

Inspection of installations and equipment

The regulatory compliance of equipment and facilities is of central importance to all operators; it contributes to improving performance and safety for the benefit of the teams, customers, and users. 
 
In a globalized world, many goods and equipment are manufactured beyond local borders, and it is essential that their compliance be verified to meet the standards in force in the country of operation. Furthermore, any accident potentially threatening human safety or the preservation of the environment is now immediately made the focus of media coverage. This can have significant repercussions on a company's image, the achievement of its production targets and its profitability.
