Pro-Tec Inspection employs qualified and certified personnel to perform wet magnetic particle inspection on drill collars and rotary sub thread connections as well as other drilling components. Parts are introduced to a longitudinal field so they can be inspected for transverse flaws (cracks) in the thread connections. All thread connection inspections are performed with a black light while looking for cracks as well as lead gauges and API thread profile gauges to determine thread wear.
Pro-Tec has clean and drift crews that rack pipe, tally, drift and clean casing. All casing is drifted with mandrels conforming to API specifications that are passed through the full length of each tube to assure compliance with API internal diameter specifications. If a mashed or dented joint is found that prevents drift, that joint is removed from the string and marked accordingly.
