Description 
The Radiographic Examination Procedure provides a complete, field-ready methodology for performing radiographic testing (RT) on welds and piping components in Oil & Gas, EPC, fabrication, and industrial construction projects. Developed in full alignment with ASME Section V, ASME B31.3, and typical Client specifications, this procedure ensures consistent execution of radiographic inspections and full compliance with international NDE and project quality requirements. 

Key Benefits 

• Comprehensive and standardized RT methodology 
• Fully compliant with ASME codes and Client requirements 
• Ensures reliable defect detection and consistent inspection quality 
• Defines clear roles, responsibilities, and qualification requirements 
• Ready to use, practical, and easily integrated into project QMS
