 PRCI will host a Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) Summit on Tuesday and Wednesday, 11 and 12 October, 2022 at the Technology Development Center (TDC) in Houston, TX, USA. The purpose of this two day event is to improve the state of practice of pipeline non-destructive evaluation by providing an opportunity for the three pillars of the NDE triangle – equipment manufacturers, in-ditch service providers, and pipeline operator customers - to come together to discuss their successes, obstacles, and most importantly the opportunities for improvement. 

 This event builds on PRCI's NDE Day, held in 2019, which allowed PRCI to perform benchmarking with different technologies and their applications for different threats. Here, we expect to further increase our competencies in: 

 
	 how we procure NDE services, 
	 how NDT devices are manufactured to serve pipeline-specific needs, 
	 how NDT equipment is calibrated to the pipe and anomalies of interest, 
	 how we communicate between ILI vendors and NDE service providers, 
	 how we record and communicate NDE data from the ditch to the desk, and 
	 how we go about training and qualification of our service providers. 
 

 This continued collaboration will lead to increasingly relevant and innovative solutions for continuous improvement to the safety and integrity of pipelines. 

 Scheduled representatives from equipment manufacturers, in-ditch service providers, and operators  can be found in the detailed posted agenda material. 

 Representatives from the American Society for Non-Destructive Testing and the American Petroleum Institute are invited as well as knowledge transfer experts performing assessments of knowledge transfer within the industry. 

 Agenda topics include: 

 
	 Keys for successful NDE of hook cracks: PRCI Project NDE-4-12 project review 
	 Operator/Original Equipment Manufacturer collaboration for field success - eddy current 
	 Operator/Original Equipment Manufacturer collaboration for field success - phased array ultrasonics 
	 Updates on X-ray computed tomography development 
	 Human factors component to NDE 
	 Teaching, training, and certification 
	 Demonstrations of current technology 
 

 The summit will be held from 8:00am to 5:00pm CT at the Technology Development Center (TDC) at 6410-J Langfield Road in Houston, Texas. If you have any questions, contact us at  info@prci.org .
