Thermal Imaging For The Oil & Gas Industry
Our thermographic surveys are best undertaken while equipment is operational at a minimum of 40% load. Some examples of previous offshore thermographic surveys include:• Non-invasively detecting loose bus-bar bolts and faulty SCR units as part of your rigs’ annual PM requirement
• Identifying loose terminal block connections, failing fuses and load imbalances to reduce accidental shut down and fire risk through wire insulation ignition
• Monitor bearing temperature at mud pump shafts during high-pressure pumping
• Assess connections in mud pump and draw work terminal boxes
• Determine equipment suffering from drive shaft misalignment problems
• Identify passing valves in high-pressure process piping and poorly torqued bolts at pipe flanges
• Define loose or incorrectly tensioned mud pump motor brushes
