Why PMI Testing
According to the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), National Emphasis Program (NEP), and the American Petroleum Institute (API) PMI Testing & Inspection reduces or eliminates workplace hazards associated with catastrophic release of highly hazardous chemicals.
Studies show that in Petrochemical & Refinery facilities almost half of the largest losses are a direct result of failures in piping systems. Relying on spot checks is unacceptable in today’s litigation prone environments. The potential impact to the overall safety of employees and the bottom line to companies is significant.
PMI Testing also ensures traceability of components from manufacturing process to final assembly.
