Corrosion is the number one threat to the integrity of pipelines and industrial facilities.
Colawood has the regulatory knowledge and specialized technologies to prevent failure, maintain compliance, and extend asset life
The US Department of Transportation regulates 425,000+ miles of onshore pipelines. We understand 49 CFR 192-193-195 and offer complete compliance services, from data and reporting to inspection and verification to prevention and response.
- Traceable-verifiable-complete (TVC) records
- Assessment: engineering critical + external corrosion direct (ECA/ECDA)
- Confirmation: moderate/high-consequence area + maximum allowable operating pressure (MCA/HCA/MAOP)
- Leak detection
- Cathodic protection design-installation-testing
- Alternating current (AC) interference management
NDT solutions for facility integrity
We get the right inspection data to determine the condition of any component, including process piping, power piping, vessels, tanks, heat exchangers, and valves. Our API and ASME inspection services use nondestructive ultrasonic techniques such as guided-wave, short-range, magnetic flux leakage, and phased-array. Difficult-to-inspect or hazardous areas are achievable with drones, ropes, robotics, and LiDAR.
Proactive risk management for your whole facility
- Detect defects early (internal/external corrosion, cracking, environmental damage)
- Evaluate damage mechanisms (erosion, corrosion, creep, fatigue)
- Plan maintenance + save downtime with data trends
- Evaluate + prove fitness for service
- Extend asset life
For safe, reliable operations and long performance life, Colawood delivers.
