SHAPING THE FUTURE

In a market where asset integrity is a fundamental principle, Exova has a proven track record of supporting organisations at the forefront of global oil & gas exploration, production and distribution.

Through the provision of technically demanding testing, we are a partner for life – independently assuring the performance of assets from R&D, through operations, life extension and disposal.

Exova’s portfolio of global oil & gas testing services includes:

COATINGS

We support customers at all stages of the coatings life cycle, from product pre-qualification testing and application through to onsite inspection of construction materials and protection systems.

Our teams provide coatings testing services across a range of sectors spanning pipelines, rigs, chemical plants and ships. Our technical disciplines include Cathodic Disbondment; NORSOK; ageing and marine coatings performance standards.

CORROSION

The Exova Corrosion Centre links a global network of specialist laboratories where our teams recreate an extensive range of environmental challenges, giving you assurances on asset performance and safety.

Our services cover a full spectrum of environmental testing simulations, including pipeline corrosion testing for sour and non-sour applications; hydrogen testing; pitting; full ring tests; and a full range of SCC tests.

ENVIRONMENTAL TESTING

Our experts provide accurate analytical testing services including water and soil analysis, drilling waste, microtox, remediation, reclamation, contaminated sites and spill response.

Our environmental testing helps you deliver efficient operations that respect the environment and ensure your integrity and reputation.

FAILURE ANALYSIS

Our teams of qualified metallurgists, chemists, materials and polymer scientists are among the most experienced and recognised in their field.

Working with oil & gas customers around the world, they provide expert failure analysis and failure reporting through a range of technical services including pipeline failure assessment, stress analysis, trace evidence analysis and forensic engineering.

IMMERSION ULTRASONIC TESTING (IUT)

This enhanced version of Automatic Ultrasonic Testing (AUT) is particularly sensitive to smaller defects in girth welds that may be missed by traditional non-destructive methods. IUT also reduces both the risks associated with under sizing a flaw and the costs of needlessly fixing flaws which have been oversized.

Our capabilities help secure project quality and provide assurance that pipelines are free from critical defects.

PIPELINE SERVICES & ECA

Through a range of technical capabilities, we simulate operational conditions for pipeline installations, providing data and analysis on potential materials performance.

Pipe reeling and impact tests replicate extreme sub-sea stresses on materials and welds. We provide a full spectrum of weld certification and consultancy including Engineering Critical Assessment (ECA) helping you to reach the right decision on material selection and weld design, process and procedure.

WELD TESTING SERVICES

Exova is a recognised leader in weld testing services. Our teams include CPN and AWS/ASNT/CSWIP-qualified weld inspectors as well as certified welding engineers, who together offer a comprehensive service in this critical technical area.

We conduct welding services to recognised international codes and standards. Whether your requirement is in weld procedure qualification / welder certification, testing, inspection or failure analysis, we can support you at every stage of the asset life cycle.

METALLURGICAL TESTING AND FRACTURE MECHANICS

Our network of experts and specialist facilities can conduct a range of destructive and static testing including tensile and charpy testing, to more technically demanding fatigue fracture toughness (CTOD, J-R Curve, J1c & K1c) and SENT tests.

Supported by dedicated machine shops, we ensure rapid sample processing giving our customers the answers they need cost-effectively and within their time scales.

LOCAL TALENT, GLOBAL SOLUTIONS

Our teams of oil & gas testing experts are committed to delivering independent assurance on safety and performance. We lead the way in corrosion, coatings, fracture mechanics & SENT, asset life management, failure analysis, environmental testing and Immersion Ultrasonic Testing (IUT).

We also have world-class capabilities in critical routine testing. These include weld procedure qualification & certification, metallurgy for pipelines and other oil & gas assets.
