Reliable PMI Testing for Material Verification and Quality Control

Qualitest Offshore Inc. provides accurate and efficient Positive Material Identification PMI Services in Guyana for its offshore and onshore industries. PMI is a critical Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) method used to verify the chemical composition of metals and alloys.

We help our clients avoid material mix-ups, ensure compliance with specifications, and reduce the risk of costly failures. Whether it’s for piping, valves, structural steel, or pressure equipment, PMI testing ensures the right material is used for the right application.

What is Positive Material Identification (PMI)?

PMI uses advanced X-ray fluorescence (XRF) or optical emission spectroscopy (OES) analyzers to identify elements and match them to material grades. This quick and non-invasive method is essential for confirming alloy types like stainless steel, carbon steel, Inconel, Monel, and more.

It is commonly used during fabrication, maintenance, and shutdown inspections to ensure material traceability and integrity.

Key Benefits of PMI

• Quick and accurate material verification
• Non-destructive and portable for field use
• Helps meet regulatory and client requirements
• Reduces risk of equipment failure due to material mismatch
• Ideal for positive traceability in critical systems
