In-service inspection is a central part of the safe and efficient operation of plants and equipment. Through systematic inspection, in-service inspection helps to detect degradation, wear and damage early, so that unforeseen shutdowns, leaks and incidents can be avoided. The inspections are adapted to the condition of the plant, the risk picture and applicable regulations.
We offer complete services within in-service inspection, from analysis and planning to execution and follow-up.
