Surveying the Ship Pipelines

Surveying ship pipelines is an important process aimed at checking the condition, safety, and compliance of ship pipelines with established standards and requirements.

The company SpecMorService offers services for defect detection, inspection and repair of ship pipelines.

Flaw detection and repair are carried out on the basis of certificates of classification societies: RMRS, RKO, NKK, RINA, BUREAU VERITAS

This procedure is part of the ship's maintenance and may include the following main stages:

1. Preparation and Planning

Development of an inspection plan: Sections of the pipelines to be checked and types of inspection work are determined.
Determination of inspection methods: Diagnostic methods are chosen, such as visual inspection, ultrasonic testing, hydrostatic testing, and others.

2. Visual Inspection

Assessment of the overall condition of the pipelines: Checking for corrosion, mechanical damage, signs of leaks, and other visible defects.
Examination of supports and fastenings: Evaluating the condition of clamps, brackets, and other fastening elements.

3. Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

Ultrasonic testing: Used to detect internal defects such as cracks, voids, and delaminations.
Radiography: Provides visualization of the internal structure of the pipelines.
Magnetic particle testing: Used to identify surface and subsurface defects in ferromagnetic materials.

4. Hydrostatic Testing

Pressure Testing: Conducted to check the tightness and strength of pipelines. The pipelines are filled with water and subjected to pressure above the working level.
Leak Testing: Carried out at working pressure to identify leaks in flanged connections, valves, and other elements.

5. Analysis of Results

Documentation of Results: All inspection and test results are recorded in the relevant acts and protocols.
Condition Assessment: A conclusion about the current state of the pipeline system and the necessary repair work is made based on the collected data..

6. Repair and Maintenance. Reinspection and Control

Correction of Found Defects: Repair work is carried out to eliminate identified malfunctions.
Scheduled Maintenance: Preventive measures are taken to keep the pipelines in working condition.
Follow-up Inspection: A follow-up check is conducted to confirm the quality of the repair work performed and the overall soundness of the system.
