New issues of ENIQ guidance documents published

16/07/2019

The European Network for Inspection and Qualification (ENIQ) is a network dealing with the reliability and effectiveness of non-destructive testing (NDT) for nuclear power plants (NPPs). ENIQ is driven by European nuclear utilities and is working mainly in the areas of qualification of NDT systems and risk-informed in-service inspection (RI-ISI). Since its establishment in 1992, ENIQ has performed two pilot studies on in-service inspection (ISI) qualification and has issued more than 60 documents. ENIQ is recognised as one of the main contributors to today’s global qualification guidelines for ISI.

Recently, ENIQ has fully revised all of its guidance documents, the ‘European Methodology for Qualification of Non-Destructive Testing’, the ‘European Framework Document for Risk-Informed In-Service Inspection’ and the ENIQ Recommended Practices, as well as the ENIQ Glossary of Terms. The new issues of the ENIQ guidance documents and all other ENIQ publications (for example technical reports and position papers/discussion documents) can be downloaded from the NUGENIA website, via: http://nugenia.org/eniq-reports
