"Pipes and tubes are critical mechanical structures used in all aspects of the Oil and Gas industry. Whether it be drill strings, well casings and gathering lines in the upstream world to on and off shore midstream transmission pipelines to distribution lines, the integrity of an individual pipe is paramount to safety and profitability of major Oil and Gas companies. This paper outlines inspection standards required for various tubular product types used in the Oil and Gas industry and describes current and forward looking ultrasonic inspection methods that can be implemented now to meet and exceed these requirements. Understanding the impact of inspection capability on the manufactured value of tubes and pipes will allow Manufacturers to choose a strategy to improve their overall competitiveness on a global basis.
