| SGS accredited by BINDT to conduct TKY weld joints UT training in China |
China continuously undergoes rapid development in industrial manufacturing and related products, including aviation, steel structure, shipping, marine, petrochemical, pressure vessels and special equipment. During the manufacturing process of these products, the highest priority is placed
on the quality of the components, including the weld joints, of which many are of the node, nozzle and ‘T’ configuration. Consequently, there is a demand for NDT personnel to determine the quality and lifespan of the products containing TKY weld joints and thus save costs (and possibly lives) which could arise from catastrophic failure, unplanned downtime or extended maintenance periods. >> more |
| BINDT Roadshow – a huge success |
Rolls-Royce had a number of NDT engineers who wanted to know more about The British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing (BINDT) and the services it offers. Instead of every interested person approaching BINDT individually, Dr Iain Baillie, Team Leader, NDE Laboratory, approached the Institute with a view to staging a BINDT Roadshow for Rolls-Royce personnel at Derby. >> more |
| SGS provides hot hydrogen attack inspection for Shell in the Philippines |
|
Hot hydrogen attack (HHA) is a form of degradation caused by carbides reacting in steel, thereby forming methane (CH4). The probability of HHA damage in industrial plants is dependent on its partial hydrogen pressure and operating temperature. In the worst cases, HHA may lead to damage, which can have catastrophic results for people and the environment. Since even a minor failure could cause unacceptable downtime and a substantial loss of money, conducting regular hot hydrogen attack inspections is indispensable for detecting failures and discontinuities at the earliest stage possible. >> more |
| Roger Lyon retires from BINDT |
This feels a bit like déjà vu, having already retired from RWE nPower in 2009. Having served 12 years in the Royal Navy, my first involvement in NDT was when my uncle, Ron Burgess (who worked alongside Ron Halmshaw (Past President) in the Woolwich Arsenal), persuaded me to attended the Lloyd’s-approved course on industrial radiography, run by the Kodak School in Pinner, north London. I did quite well for a novice, but that was largely due to the training school being run by John Grimwade (Past President) and tutors Peter Forsmen and Alan Clark (the A Team). >> more |
