Quality

Mechanical testing

Quality Lab carries out a number of mechanical tests and has a special engineering workshop for taking samples. We test in accordance with

most standard test methods, and tests are also according to the customer’s own specifications and wishes.


Metalographical testing

We have personnel with long experience in metallography. With our know-how we will be able to provide our customers with a deeper understanding of the material’s qualities. Metallography is used in connection with material verifications, welding procedures, damage assessment, heat treatment, requalification/recertification.


Recertifica

tion

Quality Lab carries out recertification/requalification of existing equipment. An example of this is equipment that has inadequate documentation where we can carry out tests without damage to the product. Systematics and methods have been based on DNV-RP-E101, Recertification of well control equipment. We issue a document that describes the material’s strength class, qualities and chemical analysis with refer to the associated standard. Our personnel have experience in steel production

, maintenance and repair of drilling equipment.


Damage analysis

The industry is constantly experiencing that equipment does not meet expectations. We use a combination of analyses, visual inspection, physical tests and experience to identify the cause. A metallurgist thoroughly evaluates all aspects of the damage and gives a conclusion and a recommended solution.


Consultancy

Quality Lab can be a good partner in solving the problems with materials and problems associated with product quality.


Our personnel have many years of experience and will give recommendations with regard to choice of materials,

welding, heat treatment, etc.
