“Growing Use of NDT in Oil & Gas and Power Sectors Driving Market Expansion”
- The demand for non-destructive testing (NDT) methods is rapidly increasing in the oil & gas and power industries, playing a major role in market growth. NDT techniques, including ultrasonic, magnetic particle, liquid penetrant, and visual inspections, are widely used to assess pipeline corrosion and material integrity without causing any damage.
- In the oil and gas sector, these methods help ensure the safety and reliability of pipelines by detecting internal and external defects. Similarly, in the power industry—especially nuclear—NDT is essential for inspecting steam and gas turbines, pressure systems, small valves, and waste management components. These services are crucial for preventing failures, reducing downtime, and maintaining safety standards.
- For instance, in early 2024, several power plants in Europe adopted advanced NDT techniques to extend the life of aging infrastructure and reduce operational risks. As industries aim for safer, more efficient operations, the reliance on NDT is only expected to grow, pushing the market to expand at a steady pace in the coming years
