First Nations non-

destructive testing

company. our primary

service sector is the oil &

gas, pipeline and mining

industries in North

america and globally. our

services are provided

24/7, 365 days of the

year, on-site and in the

field.

We’re determined to be

leaders in developing and

providing technology-

based, site-specific

solutions that help reduce

costs, increase productivity

and promote growth for

our customers. by focusing

on safety, our qualified

technicians are equipped

with leading technology to

meet all of our customers’

inspection requirements.

We also supply technical

training to our clients,

so they may better

understand the advanced

methods and applications

used in producing reports.

Leveraging their extensive

knowledge, experience

and investment in

Research & Development, Eagle Eye NDt’s senior

Management team is

dedicated to offering

expert recommendations

for industry requirements.

our dedicated, full-time

employees represent

the structure behind our

company operations.

Qualified technicians and

inspectors are trained and

certified with appropriate

industry accreditation,

including CGsb/NRCan

certification and the

Canadian Welding bureau (CWb) certification. Eagle

Eye NDt is also a

member of IsN and

actively working towards

the Partners In Injury

Reduction’s Certificate of

as a diverse NDt company, Eagle Eye NDt

is partnered with the

Canadian company, Focus

NDt, to provide leading-

edge, specialized services.

Eagle Eye NDt is

committed to

supporting and

enhancing the lives of

the people in the many

First Nations

communities in which

we operate. through

collaborative efforts with

First Nations bands, we

will train future industry

leaders and offer new

opportunities in the non-

destructive testing field.

SECTORS THAT WE SERVE

WHAT IS NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING?

Oil & Gas•Pipeline Inspection•Mining•

Non-destructive testing (NDT) uses analysis techniques to evaluate

the properties of a material, component or system. Because it does

not alter the components, NDT saves both money and time for

product evaluation, troubleshooting and research.

MAINTENANCE WELDING LIFTING SAFETY

OUR SERVICESEagle Eye NDt’s diverse background gives usadvanced expertise to perform the latest,state-of-the-art Non-Destructive testingtechniques and services when evaluating theproperties of materials, components orsystems in the oil & gas, pipeline and miningindustries.

These analysis techniques do not permanently alter the components. With site-specific, specialized mobile and stationary services including examinations, inspections and assessment, NDT saves both money and time in product evaluation, troubleshooting and research.

• Ultrasonic Testing - Manual (MUT)• Magnetic Particle Testing (MT)• Liquid Penetrant Testing (LT)• Radiographic Testing (RT)• Electromagnetic Testing (ET)• Visual Testing (VT)• API 510/570/653• Positive Material Identification (PMI)• Rope Access Inspection

Phased Array Ultrasonic is a powerful NDT technology that quicklyand reliably evaluates embedded flaws, unlike conventional testing.

Eagle Eye is connectedto qualified weldingcompanies with vastexperience in all welding environments.

Our inspections complywith lifting equipmentregulations with thorough inspections of critical components.

autoMatED uLtRasoNIC tEstING (aut)

one of the more commonly used NDt methods, ultrasonic testing (ut) takes

measurements of high-frequency mechanical energy, such as sound waves,

to test materials.

automated ultrasonic testing (aut) takes this technology and detects flaws on

newly fabricated and in-service welds using computer-controlled, mechanized

scanners. Moving a number of different transducers over the surface of material , these scanners reflect optimized data using a predefined grid on the

computerized interface.

aut utilizes any ultrasonic transducer or technique in operation, including

conventional ultrasonic transducers, Phased array ultrasonic testing (Paut),

time-of-Flight Diffraction (toFD) transducers or any combinations of these.

as the real-time data is collected and optimized, technicians can immediately

analyze areas of interest.

to reveal irregularities in the magnetic field. testing is done in the field or at the Eagle Eye NDt facility.

damage to pipelines,

while also improving

data quality, inspection

speed, accuracy and

repeatability.

the Field-Pack, with its

pROCESS

setup1.Clean, sandblasted pipeline surfaces yield the best

results for calibrating the unit and scanning. the 3D

positioning system also compensates for vibrations in

field environments by using 6mm diameter reflective

targets.

data Collection2.once the corroded area is determined, the scanner

begins the acquisition by moving manually along the

pipe and the final 3D file is saved in stL format.

reporting3.before launching the calculation, a technician enters

parameters and analysis criteria for the pipeline’s

3D scan file. these parameters are useful for burst

pressure calculation and applying interaction rules.

a final report, auto-generated in Excel format, helps

assess and determine the proper remediation

technique for the pipe.

RAISED FACE (RF) & RING TYPE JOINT (RFJ) FLANGESAs the most common flanges in piping systems, thechoice between Raised Face (RF) & Ring Type Joint(RFJ) Flanges is decided based on the fluid, PT rating,construction material and connecting equipment.

The flat gasket on the RF Flange is designed to gobetween the raised faces of two mating flanges.Because the raised faces have prescribed texture,the grip retains force on the flat gasket.

RTJ Flanges are applied in high pressure, hightemperature environments, from Class 150 andhigher pressure rating to a limit of 180ºC.

MINING

Our Non-Destructive Testing Methods For the Mining Industry Include:

For the Mining Industry, We Examine, Inspect and Assess:

Non-destructive testing benefits the mining industry in two ways: improved safety by detecting flawsand irregularities before equipment fails or personnel is injured; and improved productivity. Eagle EyeNDt can perform both underground and surface inspections to mining equipment and assets.

• Ultrasonic techniques such as Phased Array Ultrasonic, Time-of-Flight Diffractions (TOFD)and Automated Ultrasonic Testing (AUT )

• Electromagnetic (EM) Wire Rope Testing

• Mobile and Stationary Equipment• Tanks• Bull Gears (phased array and magnetic particle inspection)• Wire Rope• Lifting Components

The following page describes one of the testing methods used for the Mining industry.

Features

PREVENTATIVE SAFETY

In many jurisdictions, government regulations require underground mining operations using steel wire ropes to conduct regular EM testing.

Protecting against steel wire rope deterioration requires two essential steps—regular non-destructive EM Instrument testing followed by visual inspections. This two-fold method provides the most accurate assess-ment of a steel wire rope’s complete condition and whether it needs to be replaced. Consistent data collections can track a rope’s rate of deterioration and reveal steps to prevent or slow it down.

ELECTROMAGNETIC (EM) WIRE ROPE TESTING FOR THE MINING INDUSTRYFerromagnetic steel wire rope, found in locked coiland plastic coated ropes, are susceptible to corro-sion,wear and shifts in rope structure.

Electro-Magnetic (EM) Instruments can detect bothexternal and internal deterioration, providing reliabledata to read the Local Fault (LF) patterns and Lossof Metallic Cross-sectional Area (LMA). Broken wires,lay distortion, inter-strand nicking, external wear orcorrosion pitting can cause LF patterns.

Combined LF and LMA results help engineers:• Determine when a steel wire rope surpasses its

safe working life and should be removed• Estimate the Loss of Breaking Strength (LBS) of

for a steel wire rope

Portable EM Instruments bring steel wire rope testing on site. These instruments consist of two interconnected components:• Test Head, through which the rope travels• Console, which displays the test results

Regular non-destructive EM Instrument testing,combined with visual inspections, protect againstdeterioration and ensures safety for steel wire ropes.

This two-fold method is the most accurateway to assess the complete condition of steel wire rope.

By doing so, engineers can track a rope’s rate ofdeterioration, take preventative measuresto slow it down, or decide when to replace it.
