Services
Tank Inspections
Our API-certified tank inspections evaluate structural integrity and regulatory compliance for field-erected and shop-fabricated tanks. Using ultrasonic testing, magnetic flux leakage, and visual examinations, we identify corrosion, leaks, and damage. Clients benefit from tailored repair recommendations and compliance with environmental safety standards.
Non-Destructive Testing
ASNT-certified staff perform non-destructive testing using ultrasonic, magnetic particle, and liquid penetrant methods. This ensures asset integrity without compromising material structure. Clients receive detailed reports to prevent failures in critical infrastructure like pipelines and pressure vessels.
3D Laser Scanning
Faro Laser Scanners create precise 3D point cloud models for dimensional analysis and structural assessments. This technology supports volume calculations, settlement surveys, and repair planning. Clients gain accurate digital twins for facility documentation and forensic analysis.
Engineering Evaluations
Licensed engineers conduct fitness-for-service analyses, seismic studies, and corrosion assessments using API 579 and ASME standards. Clients receive actionable solutions for structural integrity, disaster preparedness, and regulatory compliance.
SPCC Plan Development
We develop and review Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) plans to ensure EPA compliance. Services include facility assessments, integrity inspections, and plan updates. Clients mitigate environmental risks and avoid regulatory penalties.
