Guided Wave 2.0 | NDT Integrity

Industrial piping and pressure equipment in a mechanical integrity inspection environment

GUIDED WAVE 2.0

Guided Wave inspection reporting built for real-world long-range ultrasonic testing workflows, from shot setup and indication review through follow-up NDE, documentation, and final client deliverables.

Organize GUL results, inspection images, photos, qualifications, technique sheets, recommendations, and supporting NDE into one structured reporting workflow.

Follow-up NDE

Connect Guided Wave to prove-up inspection

Guided Wave screening can be supported by localized follow-up methods when additional characterization is required.

Follow-up results can be documented with the Guided Wave inspection package so screening indications and localized examination remain connected.

Support workflows for:

QSR
SRUT
EMAT
UT
Other localized NDE methods

Indication review

From screening response to documented finding

Guided Wave indications are documented as screening results and should be evaluated together with inspection conditions, system limitations, qualified interpretation, and follow-up examination where required.

Indication location
Distance from datum
Estimated circumferential position
Severity category
Screening response documentation
Follow-up NDE status
Photos and supporting evidence
Inspector comments
Recommendations

Drawings & visualization

Put the inspection in context

Visual inspection context helps reviewers understand where the shot was performed, what features influenced the inspection, and where indications were identified.

API 570 + GUL

Screening and piping integrity in one workflow

Guided Wave 2.0 can be used as a standalone GUL reporting system or combined with API 570 inspection workflows for projects requiring broader piping integrity documentation.

Designed around real GUL limitations

Screening data needs context

Guided Wave is a screening method. Inspection sensitivity and coverage can be affected by geometry, coatings, supports, soil contact, buried transitions, attenuation, accessibility, operating conditions, and other test-specific factors.

Guided Wave 2.0 is designed to document those conditions clearly rather than present screening results as direct measurement of remaining wall thickness.

From screening to follow-up

One workflow for the complete Guided Wave inspection.

Connect shot data, indication review, drawings, trace images, follow-up NDE, photos, inspector documentation, and final reporting in one organized package.
