Thickness and Flaw Inspection Solutions

Offshore Platform

Offshore Platform Inspections

Offshore oil platforms are steel structures that are particularly susceptible to corrosion. Consequently, NDT corrosion and weld inspections are essential. For rope access technicians working on oil rigs, the EPOCH 6LT flaw detector is comfortable to use and has the features to get the job done. With an innovative corrosion module software option, corrosion scanning is fast and efficient, even while suspended above the ocean from a rope. And with a comprehensive set of weld-related support features, you can accomplish inspections guided by a variety of procedures and sizing techniques.

Features for Offshore Platform Inspections

The EPOCH 6LT flaw detector features an improved corrosion software option, including:

Automatic probe recognition and configuration with center pin ID
Dynamic toggle between flaw scanning and high precision spot measurement modes
Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
Thickness gage high precision measurement algorithm
Automatic zero function (“Do Zero”)
Grid view for data visualization

Standard Flaw Sizing Software

Dynamic DAC/TCG: Compares signal amplitude to a DAC curve or reference echo amplitude; the DAC version includes standard, custom DAC warning curves, and 20-80% views
DGS/AVG: Compares signal amplitude to a DGS/AVG diagram, which illustrates the relationship between echo height, flaw size, and distance from the transducer
