Our Capabilities

End-to-End Inspection Services

Eight integrated inspection disciplines — from coating specification through final acceptance and ongoing integrity monitoring.

Coating & Painting Inspection

Comprehensive inspection of surface preparation, paint application, and coating systems for structures, equipment, piping, and offshore platforms. Aligned to NACE, SSPC, and project-specific specifications.

  • Surface preparation verification (blast profile, cleanliness)
  • DFT measurement and holiday detection
  • Adhesion testing and cure verification
  • ITP development and NCR management
  • Final acceptance reporting

Tank Lining Inspection

Full inspection scope for internal tank lining systems — fiberglass, epoxy, and specialty coatings — covering application quality, cure, and fitness-for-service verification.

  • Fiberglass (GRP/GRE) lining inspection
  • Holiday and pinhole detection
  • Lining thickness verification
  • Cure and hardness testing
  • Pre- and post-lining documentation packs

Pipeline & Subsea Coating Inspection

Inspection of external pipeline coating systems including CTE, PE, HSS, and epoxy — covering factory applied and field joint coating for onshore and offshore pipeline laying operations.

  • Factory coating inspection (FBE, 3LPE, concrete weight coat)
  • Field joint coating inspection and wrapping verification
  • HDPE/HDPP wrap inspection during laying
  • Holiday detection on installed pipeline
  • Subsea coating condition assessment

Offshore & Marine Inspection

Structural coating inspection for offshore platforms, jackets, topsides, and marine vessels — compliant with Norsok M-501, AMOCO, and operator-specific specifications.

  • Platform and jacket coating inspection
  • Marine zone and splash zone assessment
  • Structural steel coating condition survey
  • Corrosion mapping and risk rating
  • Maintenance painting inspection support

Preservation Services

Warehouse and equipment preservation programs for stored assets — protecting capital equipment from corrosion during fabrication, transport, and long-term storage.

  • Equipment preservation planning and execution
  • Preservation inspection and monitoring
  • Re-preservation and remediation
  • Storage condition audit
  • Preservation records and handover documentation

Corrosion Assessment & CP Advisory

Technical assessment of corrosion risk, corrosion protection methods, and cathodic protection systems — providing operators with independent verification and advisory.

  • Corrosion risk assessment
  • Cathodic protection system review
  • Coating/CP interaction evaluation
  • Remediation strategy development
  • Independent technical advisory

Fireproofing & Passive Fire Protection Inspection

Inspection of intumescent and cementitious fireproofing systems to verify specification compliance, application quality, and thickness requirements.

  • Fireproofing system specification review
  • Application and thickness inspection
  • Adhesion and bond testing
  • Documentation and certification packs
  • Third-party verification support

CIP Training & Inspector Qualification

Structured training programs for coating inspection personnel — delivered by a NACE-certified CIP instructor with 25 years of field experience across major international operators.

  • CIP fundamentals and NACE exam preparation
  • Practical coating inspection workshops
  • Client-specific inspector qualification programs
  • ITP and reporting skills development
  • Mentoring and on-the-job assessment
