Pressure Vessel Inspection
Our inspection services provide the detailed data and expert analysis you need to ensure compliance, safety, and optimal vessel performance.
How Often Should Vessels Be Inspected?
Regular inspection of pressure vessels is essential to prevent hazards caused by weakening or corrosion. According to the National Board Inspection Code (NBIC), pressure vessels must be inspected at half of their remaining service life or every 10 years, whichever comes first.
If the remaining life of a vessel is less than four years, inspections may occur at the full remaining life, up to a maximum interval of two years. The exact inspection schedule is determined by a certified inspector, based on the vessel’s condition and corrosion rates observed during initial and follow-up inspections.
