Detect corrosion before it turns costly

Shutting down in-service lines and stripping insulation and coating before starting a traditional inspection is an inefficient allocation of money and resources for inspection and integrity managers.

MISTRAS’ ART Crawler services utilize digital radiography (DR) to inspect for internal corrosion and CUI in your insulated and uninsulated aboveground piping and pipeline assets. These services help to reduce and/or eliminate the need to remove product or insulation from the lines.

The ART Crawler delivers key efficiencies to your operations by:

  • Targeting maintenance resources to damaged pipe sections
  • Maintaining uptime by keeping in-service lines operational
  • Optimizing inspection schedules and enhancing safety

Get the eGuide to learn more about the ART Crawler services and other CUI inspection technologies and best practices.

MISTRAS’ patented crawler technology has the unique ability to screen 100% of piping & pipelines in the time it typically takes to inspect 5-10% using traditional methods. The ART Crawler also inspects in-service lines, with product still flowing through them, greatly reducing the need for costly shutdowns.

Advanced Robotic Inspection Technology
Utilizes advanced, patented technology to help you stay on the cutting edge of CUI detection

Rapid Corrosion Screening
Can inspect up to 1 mile of pipeline in a day and cut down on time, safety hazards, and costs

More Targeted Asset Protection
Serves as an ideal solution for large-scale corrosion screening, enabling operators to detect corrosion defects and target follow-up inspection and maintenance activities

High Efficacy for CUI Detection
ART is more sensitive to light external corrosion than other leading pipeline inspection tools

Reduce Downtime and Lower Asset Protection Costs
Maintain operations by keeping insulation intact and product flowing during inspections

Non-Disruptive
No impact on production or other simultaneous operations (SIMOPS)

Trusted Corrosion Detection Methodology
ART provides data that is typically at least as accurate as other leading inspection methods

MISTRAS’ ART Crawler is a modern inspection tool that boasts advanced features for operators to pinpoint internal corrosion and CUI in above-ground piping and pipelines and delivers:

  • 4-Wall View Coverage
  • High Resolution, DICONDE-Compliant Images
  • 2-Axis Robotic Arm for Autonomous Navigation
  • Digital Data Reports
  • Built-In Fall Arrest Technology
  • Self-Leveling Motion Control System
