Ultrasonic testing

The ultrasonic method is currently the most reliable and effective way to verify the integrity of hatch covers and other ship closures. W Galship we use advanced diagnostic equipment that allows us to locate leaks without the need for water, which is particularly important during port stops and in sub-zero temperatures.

Advantages and scope of our Ultrasonic tests:

- Cargo security: Accurate identification of leak points eliminates the risk of flooding in the hold and damage to goods.

- Non-invasive and fast: Tests are carried out "dry", allowing them to be carried out in any weather conditions, including during handling operations.

- Microleak detection: The equipment detects seal and structural defects that cannot be seen during traditional water tests.

- Compliance with requirements: Our measurements are accepted by classification societies and P&I clubs as reliable proof of a vessel's technical performance.

With Ultrasonic testing, shipowners gain confidence in the technical condition of the seals and the test report is a key document confirming the ship's readiness for the safe transport of sensitive cargo.
