Non-Destructive Testing, Lifting Equipment Inspection and Rope Access Services
SWA have extensive experience operating in Offshore, Oil and Gas, Industrial and Mining Industries providing NDT, Lifting Equipment Inspections and Rope Access.
Rope Access Inspections
All of our Inspectors are trained to IRATA Standards and comply to the highest level of safety, No job is too small or too high for our highly trained specialists.
Asset Reliability
SWA have a range of services to offer to make your workplace safe, compliant and more cost effective.
Ultrasonic Thickness Testing
UT Thickness works by measuring the time of pulse-echo from a probe through a material to determine the thickness and determine wall loss and assess for internal laminations.
Magnetic Particle Inspections
MPI is used to detect surface and slightly subsurface discontinuities in most ferromagnetic materials that can not normally be seen from visual inspections.
Dye Penetrant Inspections
DPI is a widely used to check for surface breaking flaws and defects that can not be seen with visual inspections. Unlike MPI it can be used on non-ferromagnetic components.
Eddy Current Inspections
ECI uses the process of electromagnetic induction through a probe using alternating current through a coil to generate a magnetic field and can detect an impedence change in conductive materials.
ECI is used by detecting a change of impedance and can be used to inspect welds and structure through a coating to eliminate the need for paint/coating removal.
Rope Access
All our technicians are trained to IRATA standards and require ongoing training to keep a high standard of quality and safety.
All rope access teams are led by a level 3 with the knowledge and experience to provide access and perform rescues in any scenario. Rope access personnel can be utilized as standby rescue teams in high risk jobs involved confined spaces and working at heights.
Ultrasonic Weld Inspection
Ultrasonics use high-frequency sound waves to detect imperfections in metal materials and changes in the materials qualities that could lead to difficulties or failure of the component undergoing testing.
Lifting Equipment Inspection
With regular independent audits and ongoing training we can guarantee the integrity of all lifting equipment inspections & record keeping is kept to the highest standard.
Proof Load Testing
SWA offers proof load testing of lifting equipment and pull testing on anchor/lifting points. A proof load test helps to ensure that the equipment is up to the task, by verifying that there are no material or welding flaws, or other fundamental mechanical defects. By performing a proof load test, SWA can help to ensure that your lifting equipment is safe and reliable.
Dropped Object Prevention Scheme (DROPS) surveys
DROPS are an important part of any condition inspection. This can improve safety on any facility to minimise the potential of a near miss, injury or fatality.
Our technicians can perform NDT on potential structural related dropped objects to determine the likelihood and give recommendations.
No job is too big or too small
All jobs will be performed to the highest quality with full focus on safety whether it be performing inspections in a workshop to hanging off ropes performing NDT on an offshore platform.
