Pipeline Integrity Assessment
Our proven NDT 3D scanning solutions for corrosion, denting (mechanical damage), and wrinkle analysis, service companies and pipeline operators can stick to planned budgets and timelines—all while ensuring pipeline integrity and public safety.
Refinery Surface Damage Solutions
The Surface Damage Inspection Module delivers absolute measurements of thickness loss—with no possibility of human error— on curved and complex geometries that plant owners can fully trust when making the decision to shut down their plant or refinery for maintenance work
Reliable NDT Monitoring Solutions
The Monitoring Module is the only NDT solution available on the market with the required accuracy, noise level, and data quality to characterize, follow, and compare damage evolution over time—detecting even the slightest variation in geometry or thickness.
FEA Simulations for Pipeline Level III
New 3D scanning tech for burst pressure simulations. API 579 Level I & II are often too conservative. Level III, using nonlinear FEA, gives accurate assessments. VXintegrity uses Creaform’s 3D scanning for efficient FEA and burst pressure analysis.
Creaform / Ametek's Inspectioneering Content
This paper details how advanced simulation methods can provide more accurate pipeline burst pressure assessments than traditional, more conservative approaches.
