Weight-optimized bell probe with carbon fiber rod and integrated filter technology. Extremely light, yet very robust construction for fatigue-free work. The bell probe has a dust and a water filter integrated in the lower section and is used for unpaved surfaces. When the carpet probe can no longer be used, the bell probe is used for above-ground control or for concentration measurement in the ppm range. Both probes are often carried along; the CFRP mini bell probe is ideal for this. The Bell Probe CFRP Mini is particularly suitable for carrying along with the carpet probe during pipeline network inspections. The Bell Probe Mini is clicked into the rod of the carpet probe. Together with the Carpet Probe CFRP, the combination of both probes weighs less than a metal constructed probe, with the same or higher strength.

Cygnus ROV Mountable ultrasonic thickness gage is depth rated to 500m and designed to operate in the harshest operating conditions, ideally suited for asset integrity inspections and pipeline inspections using ROV. Dedicated software displays and logs thickness measurements from the ROV UTG on to a computer at the surface. The Cygnus Topside Repeater (TSR) is available as an option and has the facility to display the thickness measurements remotely and overlay them on to a video signal. This allows the measurements to be superimposed on the ROV camera’s monitor screen. Supplied with CygLink software to display and log thickness measurements from the ROV wall thickness gauge on a computer at the surface which can be saved to a file and printed out. CygLink has two data logging facilities Quick Log for simple recording of thickness measurements and Structured mode with four templates available Single Point, Multi Point, Grid Point and Key Point.

With the development of CHARM®, Open Grid Europe is providing an efficient leakage control method for natural gas pipeline networks and thus an alternative to the labour intensive practice of conducting on-site inspections of the pipelines with gas detection devices. CHARM® is a highly accurate infrared laser system integrated in a helicopter that is capable of precisely detecting even very low methane concentrations from the air. Even in the case of very complex pipeline topologies, the course of the pipeline can be detected consistently on a large scale during the flight by an automatic, highly precise scanning beam control system (autotracking), thus ensuring a reliable leak tightness inspection of the natural gas pipeline.

JME Advanced Inspection Systems has a reputation as the market leader for the design and manufacture of high quality inspection systems, this includes our range of Pipeline Crawlers used by the ‘Non-Destructive Testing’ industry. For over 30 years, JME Pipelines Crawlers have been continually improved and updated to produce panoramic radiographs of the highest quality. Our range of systems are designed to inspect circumferential butt welds in new pipelines, such as oil and gas transmission pipelines, from 6” to 72” (15.24cm to 183cm). As a self-contained and self-powered exposure vehicle, they are ideal for a vast range of NDT applications both on and off shore. Over the past 30 years, JME has built its reputation on innovation, quality, service, and commitment to our clients. As a company, JME thrives on customer satisfaction, which is why many of our customers have been using our services for nearly 30 years.

The precision detector utilizes digital signal processing technology with high sensitivity levels to clearly identify the presence of a metal contaminant. Ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless steel fragments are successfully detected, and when equipped with a reject valve, rejected from production. A variety of valves, pipe materials and fittings are available to easily integrate into existing systems; all standing up to high pressure, temperature and washdown environments.
