Pipelines
Non-destructive testing and integrity assessment services for oil, natural gas and process pipelines during fabrication, installation and operation.
Transmission and distribution pipelines are linear assets of high environmental and operational risk, carrying fluids under high pressure over long distances. The quality of field welds (particularly girth weld seams) directly determines line integrity; corrosion, mechanical damage and weld defects are the most frequently encountered damage mechanisms. Pipeline inspection therefore requires continuity through both construction and operational periods.
TÜV AUSTRIA SILA KALİTE provides evaluation of pipeline girth welds by automated ultrasonic testing (AUT) and radiographic methods, surveillance of installation quality, and detection of corrosion-induced thinning during operation. Türkiye is a geography hosting large-scale transmission infrastructure; in projects of this type, fast, highly repeatable inspection based on acceptance criteria is critically important.
