DETECTING CORROSION AND WALL LOSS WITHIN PIPE BODY UTILIZING ADVANCE MAGNETIC TECHNOLOGY
Magnetic Flux density (MFD) technology is a safe and accurate means of locating and monitoring variations within the body wall of tubing and casing products. Older technology utilizing Gamma Radiation to identify these problems is very hazardous, typically produces limited results, and is physically limited to effectively evaluating only 6% to 12% of the total tube body. Improved MFD technology can offer a safe and effective method to evaluate 100% of the tube body for wall loss from corrosion, tool cuts, and sucker rod wear.
