Corrosion Under Pipe Support (CUPS) Inspection: Prevent Hidden Pipeline Damage
Corrosion Under Pipe Support (CUPS) inspection is an important asset integrity procedure used to identify concealed corrosion at points of contact between pipes and their supports. Periodic CUPS maintenance will help avoid unplanned pipeline ruptures, leakages, and expensive shutdowns. Corrosion under the support of the pipes can be detected early and enhance the safety of the equipment and its lifetime using high-quality NDT methods. Oil and gas, power plants, and process industries are all companies that use corrosion under pipe support inspection in order to maintain long term reliability and compliance of the pipeline.
