The importance of Non-Destructive Testing to many sectors:

NDT can also be known as Non-Destructive Examination (NDE), Non-Destructive Inspection (NDI) and Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE).

NDT encompasses many analytical and testing techniques that are used across a wide range of industries. These techniques can identify and assess defects; different methods are used in different circumstances. NDT is utilised to examine materials, properties and structures without causing any damage to the item/area being inspected, as NDT does not alter the part or structure. It is an extremely useful technique that can lead to cost and time savings when applied to fault identification and repairs, product assessments and regular asset maintenance regimes.

Stork's global NDT teams bring added value:

Our NDT services can be fully integrated into Stork's wider solutions including: Cooperheat (heat treatment manufacturing and services), Full Vessel Management, Corrosion Under Insulation Solutions as well as our Integrity Corrective Action Teams (ICATs).
