The ATI system has been shown to have significant benefits in terms of inspection reliability over conventional visual techniques.

This means the likelihood of putting cracked components downhole is reduced.

The standard system covers 4tpi threads in the size range from NC38 upwards using a basic skeleton array probe and a range of adaptors in both box and pin.

Additional adaptors or probes for use with other threads can also be produced as required by the customer.

ATI is a versatile system. Inspection can be carried out either in the open on platform pipe racks or in storage yards.

Probes are IP54 rated, and for use in harsh environments and adverse weather conditions, a rugged laptop PC is used.

Providing there is access to the pin and box ends, the probes can be deployed both horizontally and vertically.
