Oil & Gas
GE's Inspection Technologies addresses all major inspection needs for our oil and gas customers. We
strive to deliver high-quality products that detect corrosion and inspect welds in a variety of situations
and conditions while helping improve productivity. Our leading edge inspection solutions boost
productivity, help you improve safety and solve your toughest oil and gas inspection challenges.
Oshore and land-based production
Asset integrity management and asset life
extensions require inspection to provide
assurance of component integrity and
regulatory compliance. We have a complete
portfolio of inspection technologies, including
continuous erosion/corrosion monitoring with
installed sensors, remote visual inspection,
digital radiography, ultrasonic thickness
gauges and aw detectors, X-ray technology
and eddy current to inspect pipes, vessels and
parts of a rotating plant.
Rening
Inspection is a critical aspect of maintenance and process
management to help enable the safe and optimized operation
of an oil renery. We provide inspection technologies for high
temperature corrosion monitoring of critical locations and piping,
vessel and rotating plant inspections using ultrasonics, remote
visual inspection, eddy current, digital radiography and X-ray.
Liquid storage
Storage tanks require inspection to help ensure they
operate safely and within the regulatory standards.
We have tools for large area remote visual inspection
and ultrasound technology for checking remaining
wall thickness and weld quality.
Re-injection stations
Rotating equipment requires regular non-
intrusive inspections to help ensure the
safe working of the machines. We provide
a comprehensive suite of remote visual
inspection, eddy current ultrasonic systems
and unique software tools to provide improved
quality of inspections and immediate
reporting.
Subsea pipelines
Our radiographic, devices are often deployed by clients working
subsea to assess the in-service integrity of pipes and risers.
Reservoir engineering
With high resolution CT, the spatial distribution of the
pore network in a drilling core can be visualized and
analyzed. Clear knowledge of such a pore system
is of utmost importance in the eld of reservoir
engineering.

Inspection Technologies
Transmission pipeline
From upstream through downstream, we
have a range of testing and inspection
products for transmission pipelines. In the
pipe mill, we provide testing machines to
ensure material and weld quality. In the
construction phase, we provide automated
ultrasonic and portable X-ray and digital/
lm solutions. For in-service inspection,
we oer continuous monitoring, portable
ultrasonic and remote visual inspection
devices.
Petrochemical
Nondestructive testing and inspection are a critical
part of maintenance and process management
to optimize the safe operation of a petrochemical
facility. Our solutions oer corrosion monitoring of
critical locations and piping, vessel and rotating
plant inspections using ultrasonics, remote visual
inspection, eddy current, digital radiography and
X-ray.
Manufacturing
We design, manufacture and support a full range
of testing machines for plate, billet, bar and pipe
inspection using ultrasonic and X-ray technology.
Compression stations
Rotating equipment requires regular
non-intrusive inspections to ensure the
safe working of the machines. GE provides
a comprehensive suite of remote visual
inspection and eddy current systems and
unique software tools to provide improved
quality of inspections and immediate
reporting.
Liqueed Natural Gas (LNG) liquefaction
Rotating equipment requires regular non-intrusive inspections to help
ensure the safe working of the machines. GE provides a comprehensive
suite of remote visual and eddy current systems and unique software tools
to provide improved quality of inspections and immediate reporting. For
new LNG projects, a large number of welds need to be inspected to ensure
weld quality. GE provides a full suite of radiography and ultrasonic systems
for high quality weld inspection.
Image Management Software - Rhythm
Used widely in the oil and gas industry, Rhythm is a multi-modal inspection software
platform incorporating digital radiography, phased array ultrasound, remote visual
inspection and eddy current. Rhythm encompasses the image management tools
required to help provide asset assurance through proprietary tools such as the wall
thickness measurement tool for digital radiography, menu directed inspections for remote
visual and a complete archive and web access suite for long-term data management and
retrieval. Rhythm is 100% DICONDE compliant, the industry standard for inspection data
protocols.
