In this blog article, we’ll discuss the challenge of Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) detection and the benefits of using Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC) to address it. We also discuss the applications of PEC in the pipeline and petrochemical industries, where CUI is likely to occur […]
In this blog post, we’ll explore the challenges associated with inspecting hard-to-reach areas and the specialized non-destructive testing (NDT) solutions required for these environments. Additionally, we will share a success story that showcases how Nucleom used drones to assess the integrity of an underground pit […]
In this blog post, we’ll discusses the importance of inspection in the pulp and paper industry. Inspections preserve the reliability and integrity of installations, support asset maintenance, and reduce the risk of production downtime, which can significantly impact profitability. Regular inspections of heat exchangers, tubes, […]
In this blog article, we’ll explore the challenges faced by the mining industry and how Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) inspections help preserving equipment integrity. We’ll discuss various equipment inspections, including ball mills, gears, winches, tanks, mining trucks, conveyors, and share a success story of a ball […]
In this blog post, we discussed how Nucleom‘s pipeline integrity assessment solutions leverage advanced technology and expert analysis to help clients maintain safe and reliable pipeline operations. We highlighted the benefits of our solutions, including minimizing downtime, and improving data/results accuracy. We shared a success […]
What is Finite Element Analysis (FEA) ? FEA is an advanced method to approximate a discrete or continuous physical system (governed by differential equations) which consists of a subdivision of the physical domain called finite element. Why are FEA simulations interesting ? The objective of […]
In this blog post, we’ll explore how Nucleom’s cutting-edge drone solution optimizes petrochemical tank inspections. Our drone inspection services enable high resolution inspections of tank roofs and internals, without the need for personnel entry to identify corrosion, cracks, leaks, and other defects that may cause […]
