Shaw Pipeline Services is a North American midstream market leader in conventional gamma radiography (RT). Our highly-trained and certified technicians; rapid on-site deployment for projects of virtually any scale; and more advanced equipment resources make the difference.
Conventional Radiography Testing (RT) is a non-destructive testing method that uses gamma rays or X-rays to detect damage, corrosion, wall thickness and welding imperfections on field and piping welds, investment casting and pressure vessels.
Shaw Pipeline Services performs highly-accurate girth weld inspections of pipelines for gathering systems, gas plants, storage facilities and other midstream infrastructure—ensuring our customers remain within code compliance and receive greater mechanical integrity assurance for the long-term. By utilizing only the highest-quality Class 1 films for gamma ray inspection of pipeline welds, we produce high-quality images of our customers’ pipelines for rapid, efficient detection of any anomalies.
Conventional film can also be digitized for electronic storage.
