ABOUT THE WEBINAR

This webinar will explore advanced non destructive testing (NDT) techniques that are critical for ensuring the integrity and safety of welded components, particularly in energy-related industries including nuclear.

As countries expand their energy infrastructure, the need for reliable welded systems and qualified inspection personnel continues to grow. This webinar will cover:

  • NDT methods such as Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD), Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT), and Electromagnetic Testing
  • The role of regulatory frameworks in nuclear and pressure equipment applications
  • Examples of capacity building and training through the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), including certification efforts in Africa

Each session runs for 90 minutes and includes time for live questions and discussion.


WHO SHOULD ATTEND

Engineers working in welding, inspection and fabrication
Professionals involved in design, maintenance and quality control
Anyone focused on the performance and safety of welded joints


INDUSTRY SECTORS
