What Is PAUT Storage Tank Inspection?

PAUT Storage Tank Inspection is an advanced ultrasonic inspection approach used to evaluate the condition of storage tanks through phased array beam steering, multi-angle examination, and improved flaw characterization capability. It is widely used for the inspection of tank welds, shell joints, nozzle areas, roof-to-shell connections, repair welds, and selected accessible areas requiring detailed wall condition or corrosion assessment.

Compared with conventional inspection methods, PAUT offers improved scan flexibility, better visualization of indications, and stronger support for flaw detection, sizing, and interpretation. It is particularly valuable where tank reliability, product containment, and safe operation are critical to plant performance.

PAUT storage tank inspection can support the evaluation of:
➤ Shell weld quality
➤ Circumferential and vertical seam welds
➤ Nozzle and attachment welds
➤ Roof-to-shell and bottom-side accessible critical regions
➤ Repair weld condition
➤ Crack-related indications
➤ Lack of fusion and lack of penetration
➤ Localized corrosion or thinning in selected accessible areas
➤ In-service degradation concerns
➤ Critical tank regions requiring detailed condition review
