IAEA expert mission on NDT data management

05/10/2012

Nuclear Malaysia, in collaboration with other organisations such as SIRIM, University Putra Malaysia and University Malaysia, has embarked on an NDT project aimed at developing an NDT data management system.

The project was supported by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) under the Technical Cooperation (TC) Programme MAL 1011. As a start, the IAEA dispatched an expert, Dr S C Sood of CIT Ltd, Milton Keynes, to evaluate the status of the current facility and other infrastructure required for the project. In addition to this task, the expert was also requested to make a special presentation to members of MSNT. The presentation, entitled: ‘The status of digital radiography throughout the world’, was presented on 1 August 2012 and was attended by more than 40 members.

The MSNT thanks Dr Sood for his role in helping it to explore the possibility of developing an NDT data management system to be applied to various sectors of industry.
