Knowledge about the fatigue behavior of equipment used in offshore systems is very important for the deepwater oil exploration industry, not only to optimize the time-cost relationship of maintenance and operation but also to allow the forecast of possible faults, thus making it possible to modify the original project before Read more…
All installed equipment which is exposed to weather or to very dusty or damp environments must be tested for their degree of protection against dust and water, particularly in classified areas in the petrochemical industry (risk of explosion due to fuel vapors) and in public outdoor lighting. IPT performs tests Read more…
Wind tunnel testing is a reliable tool to determine the effect of wind loads on engineered structures such as buildings, bridges, tunnels, towers, roofs, cables, chimneys, trestlework, vehicles and others. This application is directly related to situations which require highly accurate and reliable information or cases in which knowledge about Read more…
Just as packaging is important for the preservation of its contents, the types of cargo unitization and wrapping are important to maintain the integrity of the packaging. Safety in cargo handling operations, ever more mechanized, requires better control of components for handling and unitizing materials and also their fastening systems, Read more…
Agência divulga finalistas do prêmio; IPT concorre na categoria colaboração com empresa petrolífera
Losses or accidents are undesirable events whose consequences vary from the simple loss of a few minutes up to the complete destruction of an industrial unit or construction. Once an accident has occurred, an investigation begins which may involve different types of studies, including criminal investigations, systemic investigations to prevent Read more…
Evaluation of microorganisms in tubings and pipelines is an important tool for the diagnosis and prevention of biocorrosion. One of the more representative groups of bacteria is anaerobic sulfate reduction bacteria (SRB). Damages caused by this microbiota may represent potential risks in oil transportation and storage tanks. IPT detects and Read more…
Geophysical methods consists of a set of investigative tools applied especially to the study of shallow submerged areas (coastal areas, rivers, lakes and reservoirs) considering the natural inaccessibility of these environments to conventional investigative methods. IPT uses mainly seismic methods called echo-sounding (double frequency), sonography (100 and 500 kHz) and Read more…
