NDT & WELD COORDINATION
NDT & Weld Coordination
NDT and weld coordination services including inspection planning, technique selection, procedure development, and reporting. Ensuring the right method at the right time.
SV Inspection Services provides NDT and weld coordination services for offshore and onshore assets across the energy, renewables, and transportation sectors. Our qualified engineers and technicians ensure the right inspection method is applied at the right time.
Inspection Planning
We develop comprehensive inspection programmes tailored to project requirements and applicable codes. Our plans define inspection hold and witness points, acceptance criteria, and resource requirements to ensure full coverage without unnecessary inspection.
Technique Selection
We select the optimal NDT method based on material type, component geometry, expected defect type, and access constraints. Where multiple techniques are applicable, we recommend the most effective and cost-efficient approach for the specific application.
Procedure Development
We write and review NDT procedures to meet project specifications and regulatory requirements. Our procedures define equipment, calibration, scanning patterns, acceptance criteria, and reporting requirements in accordance with the applicable code.
Weld Procedure Oversight
We review welding procedure specifications (WPS), coordinate welder qualification testing, and provide in-process weld monitoring to ensure compliance with approved procedures. Final acceptance inspection is performed against AWS, ASME, EN, and DNV welding codes.
Compliance Management
We manage inspection compliance across projects, tracking inspection status, maintaining records of qualification certificates, and ensuring all NDT and welding activities meet project specifications and regulatory requirements.
Reporting & Documentation
We deliver clear, traceable inspection reports with full documentation. Our reports include inspection results, defect records, disposition recommendations, and supporting documentation in formats specified by the client or classification society.
