METALLOGRAPHY

Non-destructive metallography, also known as replica testing, is used to examine the microstructure of metallic components without removing any material from the equipment.

This method allows the in-situ assessment of grain structure, phase distribution, and potential degradation mechanisms such as creep, overheating, or material embrittlement.

It is an essential tool for remaining life assessment and condition monitoring of offshore and onshore critical equipment, helping to plan maintenance and prevent unexpected failures.
