De-Tect Unit Inspection was awarded a major contract at Koeberg Nuclear Power Station, taking full responsibility for project management and execution of comprehensive inspection scopes. These included manual ultrasonic testing, surface inspections, flow accelerated corrosion assessments, repair and replacement programmes, snubber testing, as well as marine and civil corrosion inspections.
During this period, De-Tect strengthened its strategic position by entering into an association agreement with Rotek Engineering (Pty) Ltd and securing additional contracts for inspection and testing services at Koeberg.
De-Tect also successfully executed the Inspection, NDE, and Testing scopes for Outages 110 and 210 within strict time constraints, achieving exceptionally low radiation exposure levels.
Beyond the nuclear sector, the company completed all ultrasonic inspection work on fabricated components for the Mossgas / Dresser Kellogg (Bredasdorp alliance) E-M field development expansion programme, along with surface inspection work on the R01 module and PLEM structure on the West Coast.
In addition, De-Tect demonstrated innovation by designing and manufacturing a cost-effective ultrasonic manipulator for the inspection of cast riding rings on cement kilns for PPC Cement.
