Based on the science of stress-magnetisation of steel, the unique and patented SCT inspection method is a versatile and potentially game-changing tool that can provide clients with a comprehensive insight into the condition of their pipelines.

• It can detect all sources of localised stress including (but not limited to) internal and external corrosion, coating defects, and metallurgical defects due to sagging or twisting.
• It is remote and non-invasive, targets non-piggable pipelines and is not limited by pipeline configurations such as tight turns or valves.
• It does not require pre-inspection preparation activities that entail hidden costs or the disruption of normal pipeline operations.
• It is currently being used as a screening tool and a complementary inspection technique with potential to become a standalone inspection method.
