Expert Heat Exchanger Tube Inspection Using Eddy Current Testing (ECT) in Guyana


Trusted Eddy Current Testing (ECT) Services for Heat Exchanger Tubes in Guyana

Looking for ECT heat exchanger tube inspection in Guyana? At Qualitest Offshore Inc, we specialize in Eddy Current Testing (ECT)—a highly effective, non-destructive testing (NDT) method ideal for evaluating non-ferrous heat exchanger tubes without requiring system shutdown or tube removal.

Our ECT services deliver accurate detection of internal and external tube flaws, enabling efficient maintenance planning and cost reduction for critical industrial and offshore systems.

We proudly support clients across Guyana, Suriname, Trinidad, Brazil, and South America, serving industries such as oil & gas, power generation, petrochemicals, HVAC, and marine operations.

🔍 What is Eddy Current Testing (ECT)?

Eddy Current Testing (ECT) is an electromagnetic NDT method used to inspect non-ferromagnetic tubing made from materials like copper, stainless steel, brass, and titanium.

ECT uses high-frequency alternating currents to create electromagnetic fields. When these fields interact with the conductive tube surface, any defects—such as corrosion or cracks—alter the flow of eddy currents. These changes are precisely measured to identify:

  • Internal pitting or erosion
  • External corrosion or surface wear
  • Cracking due to stress or fatigue
  • General wall thinning and deformation

ECT allows for accurate, high-speed inspection without damaging or extracting the tubes.


✅ ECT Inspection is Ideal For:

  • Copper, brass, stainless steel, and titanium heat exchanger tubes
  • Chillers, evaporators, and condensers in industrial HVAC systems
  • Tubing in power plants, refineries, and chemical processing units
  • Heat exchangers on FPSOs, offshore oil rigs, and marine vessels

Whether you operate a refinery or an offshore platform, ECT provides non-intrusive testing that supports preventive maintenance and operational reliability.


🔧 Common Applications of ECT in Guyana

Qualitest Offshore Inc offers advanced ECT inspection solutions for:
