Leading international technical service provider TÜV Rheinland is set to showcase new solutions and techniques, including its latest e-inspection strategy for plants operating at high temperatures, at the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (Adipec) show in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

One of the world's most important oil and gas exhibition and conferences, Adipec will be held from November 7 to 10 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre.

The exclusive four-day event is being held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE.

During the event, companies operating in the Middle East will have the opportunity to meet TÜV Rheinland experts to learn about these and further solutions in the area of ultrasonic inspections at elevated temperatures with the help of their interdisciplinary expertise.

The German-based global provider of safety and certification services said the objective placed by the strategy is aimed towards assisting plant operators of oil companies in maximizing the availability and production efficiency of their assets and to reduce or even avoid shutdown time.

The application of conventional and automated ultrasonic techniques is currently possible up to temperatures of 475°C.

Experts at TÜV Rheinland have developed a set of standard procedures to be able to conduct corrosion mapping and weld inspections in low-alloyed carbon steel at up to 350°C.

The resulting services can be performed quickly and reliably at reasonable costs all over the world. Besides regular inspections, TÜV Rheinland has made progress in providing the appropriate solutions for inspections from 350°C up to 475°C at elevated temperatures on complex geometries.

Clients benefit from higher production efficiency based on standardized high quality services and from reasonably priced inspections according to the highest safety standards, it added.-TradeArabia News Service
