Through Insulation Inspection with Eddyfi Lyft Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC)
                                                                   
Our through insulation inspection services utilize the Eddyfi Lyft pulsed eddy current (PEC) system to efficiently detect and quantify corrosion in pipelines, tanks, and other structures. This advanced technology enables accurate assessments of insulated and coated surfaces without the need for stripping or surface preparation, significantly reducing inspection time, minimizing costs, and preventing unnecessary downtime. The Eddyfi Lyft system enhances data reliability, ensuring more informed maintenance decisions while maximizing asset integrity.

Laser Scanning & 3D Modeling

We utilize the Creaform HandyScan 3D Laser Scanners to perform high-precision analysis of external corrosion and mechanical damage across pipelines, pressure vessels, tanks, and other critical oil and gas infrastructure. These advanced handheld scanners enable our team to capture accurate, metrology-grade 3D data directly in the field, making them especially valuable during ILI investigation digs where comparing “as found” conditions with inline inspection results is critical. This verification of ILI tool accuracy is essential for ensuring the integrity of assessment data. The HandyScan also provides detailed profile measurements of metal loss and surface deformation, helping to assess the true condition of large components with precision. By leveraging this technology, we deliver thorough, data-driven evaluations that support proactive maintenance strategies, regulatory compliance, and the long-term reliability of critical assets across the energy sector.

Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT)

PAUT is a highly advanced ultrasonic technique that delivers detailed imaging and precise flaw detection for a wide range of applications, including weld inspection, corrosion mapping, and structural assessments.

• Weld Inspection: PAUT ensures accurate defect characterization in girth welds, long seam welds, and other critical joints, improving the reliability of pipeline, pressure vessel, and structural weld assessments.
• Corrosion Mapping: With high-resolution imaging, PAUT effectively detects and quantifies wall loss in storage tanks, pipelines, and pressure vessels, aiding in proactive maintenance strategies.
• Structural Inspections: PAUT is utilized for evaluating beams, columns, and other load-bearing components to identify cracks, laminations, and other integrity concerns.

JANX utilizes the latest PAUT technology, including the Total Focusing Method (TFM), to enhance resolution and deliver superior imaging. This advanced capability improves flaw detection accuracy, providing more reliable data for informed decision-making and ensuring the highest level of asset integrity.

Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD)

Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD) is a powerful ultrasonic technique used for inspecting circumferential girth welds and long seam welds, providing highly accurate flaw detection and sizing. By utilizing the diffraction of sound waves at defect edges, TOFD delivers precise measurements of crack depth and growth, making it a critical tool for weld integrity assessment.

When paired with Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) on the same scanner, TOFD enhances inspection capabilities by combining high-resolution imaging with superior defect characterization. This dual-method approach improves probability of detection, increases data reliability, and provides a more comprehensive assessment of weld integrity, reducing the likelihood of undetected flaws and ensuring compliance with industry standards.

Corrosion Mapping with Automated UT Solutions

Our automated ultrasonic testing (AUT) solutions provide high-resolution corrosion mapping to accurately detect and quantify wall loss in critical assets such as pipelines, pressure vessels, and storage tanks. These advanced systems enable precise and repeatable data collection, allowing asset owners to monitor corrosion trends and make informed maintenance decisions. By automating the inspection process, we increase efficiency, reduce human error, and enhance data accuracy, ultimately minimizing downtime and maintenance costs.

Advanced Corrosion Inspection with Encoded Scanners

Our encoded scanner solutions, paired with Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) probes, offer superior data collection for corrosion assessments. These systems ensure high-resolution, encoded data acquisition across large surface areas, providing reliable detection of material loss. With consistent and repeatable results, our scanning solutions deliver the most dependable data, empowering maintenance teams to optimize asset integrity and mitigate risks before they lead to costly failures.

SciAps PMI (Positive Material Identification)

We utilize the SciAps PMI LIBS (Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy) analyzer to accurately identify material alloys and determine carbon equivalency in the field. This advanced handheld technology plays a critical role in verifying welding procedures, ensuring that materials meet specified requirements before, during, and after fabrication. By providing rapid and reliable elemental analysis, the SciAps LIBS helps confirm material composition, which is essential for maintaining compliance with industry codes and standards. It is especially valuable in situations where traceability is limited or historical records are unavailable, enabling our team to confidently assess legacy components and prevent costly material mismatches. Whether used for pipeline construction, plant maintenance, or structural fabrication, our application of the SciAps LIBS enhances quality assurance, improves operational safety, and supports the long-term integrity of assets across the oil and gas industry.
