✅ Trusted PAUT Weld Inspection for Lifting Equipment in Guyana
Looking for certified PAUT weld inspection services for your lifting equipment in Guyana? Qualitest Offshore Inc is your premier provider of Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT)—an advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) technique designed to ensure the integrity, safety, and compliance of lifting systems used in offshore and heavy industrial operations.
Our ISO 9712 and ASNT-certified technicians utilize the latest PAUT technology to detect internal weld flaws with unmatched precision—helping your team maintain compliance, reduce risk, and avoid equipment failure.
🔍 What is PAUT and Why It’s Essential for Lifting Equipment?
Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) is a sophisticated ultrasonic inspection technique that uses multiple ultrasonic beams at various angles to scan welds and structural materials. PAUT delivers real-time, high-resolution 2D and 3D imaging, making it the ideal method for inspecting critical welds in lifting devices subjected to dynamic loads and harsh offshore environments.
It’s a preferred choice in the oil & gas, marine, and construction industries for early detection of defects, preventive maintenance, and ensuring equipment reliability.
🔩 Components We Inspect Using PAUT
At Qualitest Offshore Inc, we provide comprehensive weld assessments on a wide range of lifting equipment, including:
- Offshore pedestal cranes & gantry cranes
- Spreader bars, pad eyes, and lifting lugs
- Derrick and mast structures
- Load-bearing frames & supports
- Winches, sheaves, and gear housings
- Chain blocks and hoists
Our inspections detect critical flaws such as cracks, porosity, lack of fusion, corrosion, and more—protecting your operations from hazardous lifting failures.
