Materials, Corrosion & Engineering Mechanics Lab Service Overview
Viking Engineers have extensive experience in supporting material selection for diverse industries, based on design, environment and application conditions. Our services include material recommendations review, material evaluations, sour service evaluation and testing, welding engineering, material compatibility assessment and material specification development.
We can perform corrosion studies in local settings (i.e., specific equipment), or wide field studies (i.e., oil and gas fields, facilities). We undertake our analysis with a holistic and integrated approach that includes multidisciplinary review of all factors contributing to the corrosion risk, from the operational and corrosive environment conditions to the material qualities.
Viking engineers are also capable of undertaking any type of Engineering Mechanics assessment by using commercial software packages (i.e., TDAS® , WELLCAT™ ,FEA Software ABAQUS ®, OLGA ®, OLI ®) or proprietary in-house developed models.
Viking engineers and metallurgists are also knowledgeable in the areas of fit-for-service evaluations, microstructural characterization, materials selection, corrosion testing, fracture surface evaluation (SEM/EDS fractography evaluations), mechanical testing (tensile, hardness, CVN), fracture mechanics and fracture mechanics testing t (KIC, JIC, J-R).
Viking engineers, metallurgists, and technicians, possess the knowledge, experience, and state of the art equipment to perform field inspections, such as:
In-situ metallography (replica testing)
Positive Material Identification (PMI) by Optical Emission Spectroscopy
Hardness testing
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)
Visual examination
Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI)
Liquid Dye Penetrant (LDP)
Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
