Ultrasonic testing facility
17 October 2016
Sandvik has inaugurating a new, state-of-the-art, fully automated ultrasonic testing facility for pipes to the oil and gas industry.

Per Olsson Artberger, Sandvik Global Product Manager for OCTG, commented: “This new ultrasonic testing facility allows us to increase our capabilities and capacity significantly. Despite the current downturn in the oil and gas market, we see continued good business opportunities for Sandvik material grades, especially in the Middle East and Caspian Sea regions.
"What the new, automated facility provides us with is a much speedier throughput and greatly enhanced testing capabilities which meet the toughest requirements from customers in this segment."
