ULTRASONIC THICKNESS MEASUREMENT (UTM)
Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement (UTM)
Ultrasonic thickness measurement for monitoring pipework corrosion, vessel integrity, and structural steel. Reliable single-side measurements across a wide range of materials.
Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement (UTM) determines the thickness of materials from a single side, providing reliable measurements for monitoring metal loss caused by fatigue, corrosion, or erosion. Results enable informed maintenance decisions that reduce costs and maximise operational performance.
Pipework Corrosion Monitoring
We perform thickness measurements on pipework systems to monitor wall thinning due to corrosion and erosion. Our measurements track degradation over time, supporting risk-based inspection planning and remaining life assessments.
Vessel Integrity Assessment
We measure wall thickness on storage vessels and pressure vessels to verify structural integrity and compliance with minimum thickness requirements. Our surveys identify areas of localised thinning requiring repair or further investigation.
Structural Steel Surveys
We perform thickness surveys on structural supports, deck plates, and steel members to assess condition and remaining section. Measurements are taken on carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminium, alloys, composites, and glass.
Corrosion Mapping
We carry out corrosion mapping programmes to produce detailed thickness profiles across components, identifying areas of localised and general metal loss. Results are presented as colour-coded thickness maps for clear visualisation of corrosion patterns.
