Industrial Asset Management Made Simple

Our Inspectors are certified ASNT-SNT-TC-1A Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) technicians. Our NDT methods yield in-depth quantitative results, allowing us to calculate corrosion rates and find areas of excessive deterioration. We can then recommend the preventative maintenance needed to mitigate the probability of a hazardous discharge into the environment and avoid more costly repairs later on.

We perform both fixed interval inspections and risk-based inspections to provide insight into the structural integrity of your assets when it is most needed. Our expert API 653, API 510, STI SP0001, and API 570 inspections will uncover exactly how well your tank is holding up, to both outside elements and the product it contains.

Why Austin is Choosing NDT Tanknicians

NDT Tanknicians are a leader in tank inspection services in Texas, asset protection, and industry compliance. Industrial companies in Travis county and the Austin-Round Rock metro have the peace of mind of knowing that the structural integrity of their vessels is of the utmost focus for NDT. The humid subtropical climate of the Texas capital area puts above ground storage tanks and pressure vessels through a cycle of intense heat in the summers and cool, occasionally below freezing conditions in the winters. NDT Tanknicians offers the tank inspection services that will ensure the mechanical integrity of your storage vessels. In addition to tank inspections, NDT Tanknicians offers high-quality anti-corrosive coating and lining services, safeguarding the future of your assets, as well as repair services to remedy existing areas of corrosion.

Large geographical formations such as the Eagle Ford Shale and the Haynesville/Bossier Shale have helped make Texas the largest crude oil and natural gas producer in the United States. The East Texas Oil Field remains the second largest oil field in the nation. With over 480,000 miles of pipeline and substantial Liquid Natural Gas exports, Texas is both a national and global leader in energy production, transportation, and storage. Nearly 6 million barrels of crude oil are refined per day in the Lone Star State and Texas is home to 3 of the 10 largest oil refineries in the world. Chemical manufacturers in the state process and produce half of the nation’s total chemical production, supplying material used to make everything from computer components, pharmaceuticals, and everyday household items. Texan petrochemical companies know the importance of consistency, accuracy, and safety when it comes to asset management on a global scale.

Incidents such as the 2019 Deer Park Chemical Fire, the 2022 Freeport LNG explosion, and the Texas City Y Oil Spill reiterate the importance of experienced, professional testing of structural integrity. In response to such incidents, Senate Bill 900 was signed into law, requiring an owner or operator of a storage vessel to assess and report to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. NDT Tanknicians offer the experienced, reliable, tank inspection services that can support your businesses safety and inspection needs.
