Optical Gas Imaging is the method of using thermal infrared cameras to visualize gas, including methane and many other organic gases. These specialised Thermal cameras are fast-acting gas leak detection devices. They help keep your workers, your workplace, and your environment safer.

A variety of cameras exist which enables a very wide range of gases to be surveyed for their emission. Regular inspections can identify problems before they arise, saving you time and money in the long run.

Thermal imaging or IR cameras have a wide range of applications. Thermal imaging cameras can be used to identify a many issues, such as problems with thermal insulation on hot vessels or pipework and threfore critically when moisture is getting in and creating the potential for CUI.

Control rooms and sub stations must be regularly checked for electrical faults, panels can have IR windows fitted so that surveys can be done more safely.

Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC) and other advanced eddy current inspection techniques are ideal tools for detecting corrosion under insulation (CUI) and fireproofing (CUF).

Advanced eddy current inspection technology can help detect hidden corrosion before it becomes a potentially expensive and hazardous problem.

Inspectahire utilizes Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC) and PEC Array (PECA) inspection services for tanks, spheres, piping systems, and other assets.

Storage tanks come in all shapes and sizes and contain solids, liquids and gases, so all pose inspection challenges.

Our EMMUA153 qualified tank inspectors guide clients and our teams as to the requirements of the inspection standard and what can be done to ensure compliance. These can be the fire water tank through to fuel tanks.

Power plants contains many significant structures, buildings, chimneys, walls , jetties, culverts, outfalls to name a few and they are exposed to the environment as well as usage. Engineers therefore try to monitor these structures over time.

We have worked with a number of sites, doing physical inspections, and they have then requested that sensors are applied to the subject, and via WiFi, the outputs from the sensors are transmitted to interested parties.

Void Scanning laser surveying system for void mapping and stope mapping. Our system is utilised by Network Rail for site investigations.

The C-ALS Void Scanner is the most reliable, cost-effective way to carry out the regular mapping of underground voids and stopes, through a relatively small diameter access core, and from this we can provide both visual surveys and also measurment dimensions.

Our technicians use a number of different UAV's to carry out visual and IR surveys of many tall structures such as flares, masts, chimneys, tanks and boliers. Our teams can also deploy units designed for inside confined spaces.

We have extensive experience of using these devices both on and offshore as well as in Europe and the Middle East where conditions can be very challenging to operate such technology.

Ultrasonic Testing is one of the NDT Services that can be provided by Inspectahire. We have a range of UT instruments - ATEX / Waterproof / and even bespoke for the differing applications our clients have.

Verifying the thickness of metal and its condition is widely required throughout the power generation industry and its affiliates.

Probes can be deployed by our technicians or mounted onto mechanised deployment devices and now even by drone.

Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC) is industry accepted NDT inspection technique, which is an ideal tools for detecting corrosion under insulation (CUI) and fireproofing (CUF).

Advanced eddy current inspection technology can help detect hidden corrosion before it becomes a potentially expensive and hazardous problem.

Inspectahire utilizes Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC) and PEC Array (PECA) inspection services for tanks, spheres, piping systems, and other assets.

Power Stations can contain gas or steam turbines and these criticial assets require regular inspections, and usually have dedicated inspection ports built into them for the use of videoprobes or borescopes.

Given the extensive range of these instruments which we have from 1m to 30 m long, our technicians can help inspect these pieces of plant. Some of the videoprobes have stereo measurement capability.
