About NDT Global
NDT Global is the leading provider of inline diagnostic solutions, advanced data insights, subsea inspection, and integrity management services that safeguard energy-sector infrastructure. The company is recognized for its expertise in both ultrasonic inspection technologies—such as Pulse Echo, Pitch-and-Catch, Phased Array, and Acoustic Resonance (ART Scan)—and ultra-high-resolution Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) inspection services. These differentiated offerings, along with non-ultrasonic technologies like Inertial Measurement Units and others in development, enable NDT Global to deliver comprehensive asset integrity solutions.
Innovation is at the core of NDT Global's mission. We continuously challenge the boundaries of existing technologies to deliver transformational solutions that empower the industry to achieve safer, more cost-effective pipeline management. Our commitment to research and development drives the creation of vital new methods and tools that address the evolving needs of our customers while setting new industry standards.
By strategically applying inspection technologies to detect, diagnose, and model various types of threats, NDT Global provides predictive, decision-ready insights. These insights, driven by the world’s most accurate data, enable asset owners to optimize infrastructure health, drive operational efficiencies, reduce risk, and minimize their carbon footprint
DUTIES: Conduct Non-Destructive Examination (NDE) on oil & gas pipelines for the verification of in-line inspections (ILI); Report the findings to internal and external customers; Review and analyze 3rd party NDE reports in terms of level of detail, accuracy, and reliability; Process Field Verification (FV) results for import to the FV database, and conduct its quality check level 2; Validate or determine the performance of ILI surveys in accordance with API (American Petroleum Institute) Standard 1163; Discuss results with data analysis and research departments; Communicate with internal and external customers regarding FV verifications and their outcomes; Support the definition of internal standards and procedures for NDE and its result processing; Review opportunities to improve performance and efficiency at the position level.
REQUIREMENTS: Bachelor’s or foreign equivalent degree in Petroleum Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, or related field; and 3 years of experience in the job offered or as a pipeline ILI data analyst, ultrasonic shear/compression wave or geometric data analyst, or in a related/similar position. Experience therein to include 2 years in evaluation of ILI data to classify, characterize and size metal loss or cracking/deformations; 6 months in evaluation of ILI data to detect and identify installations and welds for creation of a pipeline register; and 6 months in field verifications, including understanding NDE reports and the limitations and circumstances fostering mismatches, mistakes and errors; reviewing records from visual testing or magnetic particle testing and analyzing ultrasonic scan data from metal loss, cracking, or weld defects; and correlating field verification results, their statistical analysis, and assessing the performance of ILI surveys. Hybrid role, ability to work from home. Requires travel in the US and abroad for up to 30% annually.
