Weld inspection

AUGA.node - award-winning weld inspection

Weld inspection is a vital stage in the laying of oil and gas pipelines because welds must adhere to strict criteria before they are passed for use. Failed pipeline welds cause project delays, increased costs and can result in far more significant consequences such as environmental disaster. Our weld inspection system can drive itself to a weld up to 1km away, inspect it and send the resulting information to the cloud to be interrogated or stored anywhere in the world. The OMS AUGA.node weld inspection technology provides the most comprehensive weld information on the market. Equipped with ultra HD cameras and cutting-edge laser sensors, the AUGA.node captures data vital for defect identification and quantification. Data generated is traceable and easily accessed by clients.


WeldAnalysis Software

WeldAnalysis is flexible, customisable software developed in-house and continuously enhanced by our specialist team. Its user-friendly interfaces and go/no go indicators are ideal for use in challenging energy environments and provide comprehensive data records to ensure project meets standards.


OMS guide to weld inspection

Ideal for pipeline engineers, weld inspectors, project managers and senior managers, the OMS guide to weld inspection covers the history and role of welding in the oil and gas sector, the most common types of welding, the importance of inspection, weld inspection methods and the role of a weld inspector.


Inspection in the firing line

Developed to solve the challenge of inspecting welds on a laying vessel, the AUGA Reach integrates fully with the ILUC, allowing easy access to welds at a time-critical stage and a simple go/no go indicator for rapid and accurate decision-making.


Long range weld inspection

OMS inspection systems allow critical sections such as stalk tie-ins and spool pieces to be inspected at distances up to 1km, thus improving safety, maximising asset lifetime, increasing efficiency, boosting production and reducing costs. Our technology pushes the boundaries of what is possible in pipe inspection.
