- Description:
TesTex NDT Ltd has been providing quality inspection services to the refinery, energy from waste, chemical, offshore and power industries throughout the UK and abroad since 2000. It offers a wide range of specialist inspection services covering assets such as pipelines, tanks, boilers, columns, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, condensers and storage tanks.
The company offers an Asset Integrity Management Service, including software, helping to maximise the efficiency and lifespan of plant assets through targeted inspections. This service aids clients in identifying critical areas of inspection using risk-based inspection methodology and by producing written schemes of examination identifying how and when to conduct an inspection.
