QAQC Services

Inspection services are an integral factor in successful project management. The necessary requirements are personnel with experience, expertise, certifications and relevant training. PTI offers inspection personnel with the appropriate credentials necessary to verify compliance with customer specifications. These include AWS certified welding inspectors, NACE certified coating inspectors, API and ASME qualified inspectors, as well as ASNT rated inspectors. This guarantees the highest level of performance by contractors in any marine construction or pipeline environment.

Our personnel have been involved in ultra deep water pipe lays, J-lay operations, directional drills, beach approaches, river crossings, high temperature, and H2S pipelines. Platform, deck and module construction, metering facilities, pressure vessels, interconnecting piping, along with instrumentation and electrical inspections, have been performed by PTI personnel, often in conjunction with the Lone Star PTS. (Pipe Tracking System) program. PTI inspectors have worked in pipemills in the USA, Mexico, Brazil and as well as in coating yards using the entire spectrum of applications.

Inspection of underwater construction is carried out by our personnel with expertise in diving, ROV, and one atmosphere diving suit operations and have included platform inspections, hyperbaric weld repairs, tie-ins, platform removals, riser installations and hot taps. Most importantly, PTI inspectors maintain a communication link with our clients insuring the exchange of information critical to the successful completion of the project. Inspectors are available in all disciplines including welding, nondestructive testing, mechanical, rotating equipment, paint and/or coatings, electrical, instrumentation, civil, structural, HVAC, and more.

For example, on pipeline construction projects, PTI can provide a complete team of experienced personnel including the Chief Inspector, Welding/NDT, Utility, Right-of-Way, Environmental, Safety, Coatings, SCADA, Technical Clerks, and any other positions as required.
