Nikham offers a wide range of Drill Pipe Inspection services to meet the specific requirements of our clients, including:

Our experienced inspectors use high-intensity lighting, magnifying glasses, and borescopes to scrutinise the pipe’s internal and external surfaces, thoroughly examining the drill pipe surface to identify visible defects such as cracks, corrosion, pitting, and wear.

We apply a dye capable of permeating any surface-breaking defects to detect them. This method is particularly effective at detecting fine cracks and other surface discontinuities that may not be visible to the naked eye.

We apply magnetic particles to the pipe surface, which are attracted to areas of magnetic flux leakage, to detect subsurface defects. Operators commonly use this method to inspect welds and other critical drill pipe areas.

We transmit high-frequency sound waves into the pipe and analyse the reflected waves to detect internal defects. Ultrasonic testing can detect a wide range of internal defects, including cracks, corrosion, and delamination.

We use advanced ultrasonic methods, such as phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) and time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD), to identify critical flaws and defects that may compromise the structural integrity of the drill pipe. These methods provide detailed information about size, location, and defect orientation.
