NDT Inspection
Non-destructive testing is carried out to ascertain that the components or materials being used are not damaged or faulty and are fit to be used by personnel. The result of testing can show whether the components need to be repaired or if they are safe for operation. Gold marine invests in inspection methodology and has become one of the industry leaders in Africa working with partners and OEMs in deploying cutting edge innovative techniques in advanced Industry Projects. We participate in other industry inspection bodies such as the British Institute of Non Destructive Testing (BINDT), Energy Institute, ASNT, NACE and are certified by other regulatory bodies such IRATA, ISO and the likes. Gold marine inspectors meet and exceed the industry standard competency requirements for the task in hand. In instances where our innovative methods are ahead of the development of industry standards we have developed internal training and certification procedures to ensure personnel competency.
