From Insights to Actionable Information

The journey from raw dataUnprocessed data from all sensors attached to the respective inspection tool during a pipeline inspection. to actionable insights is complex. It requires advanced algorithms and analytics for processing and identifying the right insights for each situation. The data gathered through ultrasonic inspections can reveal critical issues like corrosionThe deterioration or degradation of a pipeline caused by chemical or electrochemical reactions with its environment. Corrosion is a significant concern as it ca…, cracks, variations in wall thickness, and other potential risks.

But diagnostic insights alone aren't the end of the journey. Once the data and analysis have yielded results, our engineers and data scientists are there to help develop them into information companies can use. This deep experience adds the human element to advanced data analytics.

At NDT Global, we help you decipher the data and guide you in making informed decisions.
