Guided Wave Inspection

    Guided wave testing uses low-frequency ultrasonic waves that are transmitted to the pipeline. Once the ultrasonic waves are generated in the pipeline, they propagate and/or interaction with defects or geometric features. does not change if the frequency and wave mode are the same. Therefore, the MsS system can inspect any pipeline unlike other guided wave systems because it has a stronger guided wave generation and wider frequency range than other systems. The applications for GWT in piping structures are: piping systems in oil, gas, and petrochemical facilities; offshore piping systems/risers; power generation piping systems; road crossings/ levee penetrations; elevated or complex piping systems with limited clearance; and buried pipelines.
