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.

OUR NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING SERVICES INCLUDE:

  • Vacuum Box Testing

Why Wichita is Choosing NDT Tanknicians

Wichita is the economic and cultural center of Kansas. Nicknamed “The Air Capital of the World,” the city has historically been home to several aircraft manufacturers and hosts a number of airports including McConnell Airforce Base and the Wichita Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport. This historical investment in aviation was made possible by an early 20th century oil boom that brought oil and gas production business to the city and was influential in founding corporations like Koch Industries. For nearly a century, oil, gas, manufacturing, and energy industries have been important economic drivers for Kansas. Centrally located in the heartland of the United States along three major rail lines, Wichita is precisely positioned to facilitate distribution and storage for a variety of industries. NDT Tanknicians are ready to assist Wichita businesses in continuing the city’s history of industrial excellence.

Kansas is in the top 10 of ethanol producers in the nation, with a production capacity exceeding 600 million gallons a year. Conway, located about an hour north of Wichita, is a major hydrocarbon gas liquid products storage and pricing hub. Wichita’s innovative manufacturing and agriculture industries are also integral to its economy. Cargill recently contributed new investments for their biofuel facility and a new headquarters for protein. Advanced and traditional manufacturing in Wichita remains the top employer industry.

NDT Tanknicians offers pressure vessel inspection and tank inspection services for Wichita area petrochemical companies including those involved in the oil, gas, and asphalt industries. Our experienced, highly-trained technicians assist our clients in protecting their assets in Wichita’s humid subtropical climate.
