Track: Drones & Robotics
This Technical Exchange meeting will focus on robotic inspection technologies that enhance detection of corrosion under insulation (CUI) and improve asset integrity for piping, pressure equipment, and structures.
Presentations include:
“Reversing the Asset Inspection Paradigm: Robotics for Higher Coverage, Lower Risk, and Greater Value” by Zach Wright – ARIX Technologies
This presentation highlights how robotic and aerial system expand inspection reach.
“Advanced Robotic Internal Pipe Inspection” by Jay Pierson – ScanTECH
Showcasing multi-sensor UT, vision, and laser profiling for accurate corrosion and weld assessments across complex geometries.
“Design Once, Deploy Everywhere” by Sam Perez - NEXXIS
Outlining how modular, data-driven inspection technologies scale across mining assets to predict wear, reduce maintenance time, and improve site-wide reliability.
“Corrosion Mapping in Oil & Gas: A Comparative Study of Conventional UT, PAUT, and Plane Wave Imaging" by Gavin Dao – AOS/TPAC NDT
This presentation compares conventional UT, phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT), and plane wave imaging (PWI) for corrosion mapping in oil and gas assets, with emphasis on inspection reliability, acquisition speed, encoded data integrity, and real-time imaging capabilities.
