Early detection of high-temperature hydrogen attack
(HTHA) damage can help oil, gas, and petrochemical facilities avoid
catastrophic failures of critical high-pressure assets. While it is essential
to evaluate the equipment’s condition, HTHA is challenging to detect and
assess, including for ultrasonic testing (UT). For this reason, Olympus has created
probes specifically designed to detect HTHA-induced damage at an earlier stage.
The solution comprises Dual Linear Array™ (DLA) probes that are used to perform
the pitch-catch technique, as well as phased array (PA) probes that are
fine-tuned for the total focusing method (TFM). These methods, combined with
TOFD screening, are used as part of a complete multi-technology inspection
strategy. Sponsored by Olympus. Visit: https://www.olympus-ims.com/en/
