Safety
No confined space entry
Eliminate personnel exposure and avoid disturbance to equipment and pressure boundaries.
ENGINEERING-LED NII
Non-intrusive inspection, engineered properly.
Reduce shutdowns, lower inspection cost, and make confident integrity decisions without vessel entry.
Up to 80% cost reduction compared to intrusive inspection.
Trusted by operators including Santos, Woodside, BHP, and Beach Energy.
Over a decade delivering asset integrity outcomes in complex operating environments.
$32M → $2M inspection cost reduction
Achieved on a single processing train using engineering-led, data-driven NII.
Fully compliant with AS/NZS 3788 and API standards.
Cost
Up to 80% lower inspection cost
Avoid shutdown-driven scope, reduce inspection cost, and protect production revenue.
Operations
No shutdown required
Reduce disruption, minimise turnaround scope, and keep production online where suitable.
Insight
Defensible, high-quality data
Quantifiable results for confident, auditable integrity decisions.
Engineering-led inspection.
Built on data.
Most inspection programs are over-scoped before work even begins.
Most inspection programs are built around compliance requirements and historical practices. Scope is defined first, then executed, regardless of whether it is optimal.
NAS works differently: using engineering analysis and data to define only the inspection that is required before execution begins.
From individual vessels to full facility optimisation.
The difference is not the inspection method. It is how the inspection is defined.
Engineering analysis driving inspection decisions.
Conventional inspection approach
- Vessel-by-vessel decisions
- Fixed inspection scopes
- Driven by compliance requirements
- Limited use of data
- Outputs are static reports
Engineering-led NAS approach
- Optimised inspection at vessel and facility level
- Engineering-led strategy selection
- Data used to design, validate, and improve inspection
- Integrated with RBI and integrity systems
- Outputs are decisions, confidence, and cost reduction
NII is the tool. Engineering and data decide the outcome.
NIIPRO
Engineering-led inspection that delivers decisions
NIIPRO turns inspection into a controlled, end-to-end workflow, from scope definition to final decision.
CAPABILITY
Engineering-driven scope definition
Defined using engineering analysis, not templates.
Structured inspection execution
Controlled workpacks and consistent data capture.
Integrated data and evaluation
Spatially mapped data for coverage and damage assessment.
End-to-end traceability
Fully auditable from screening to close-out.
OUTCOMES
Defensible inspection decisions
Supports RBI and fitness-for-service.
Less reliance on shutdowns
Planned around live operations.
Consistent delivery across assets and sites
Repeatable and not person-dependent.
Scalable inspection programs
Expand without losing control or quality.
Full visibility of inspection coverage, condition, and data quality.
Without NIIPRO, data is fragmented.
With NIIPRO, it is structured, traceable, and ready for decision-making.
How we work with you
Start with NII where it delivers the most value
Start at the asset level for immediate value, or take a facility-wide approach to optimise inspection strategy across your plant.
Apply NII at the asset level for quick wins, or across the facility to optimise inspection strategy.
- Asset-level NII
Start with individual assets
Identify high-value candidates and execute NII where it delivers immediate cost and shutdown reduction.
View NII process - Facility strategy
Optimise inspection across your facility
Evaluate production impact, shutdown constraints, and integrity risk to define the most effective inspection strategy across the asset base.
Recommendations are cost-led, using NII, IVI, RVI, or combined approaches where they deliver the best outcome.

Why NAS delivers better inspection outcomes
Engineering-led from the start
Inspection scope is defined using engineering analysis, not default compliance assumptions.
Designed to reduce shutdown scope
Inspection is planned around production impact, not access requirements.
Executed on live assets
NII is delivered on operating equipment, not just defined on paper.
Built on traceable data
Decisions are supported by structured, auditable inspection data.
Up to 80% of vessels inspected without shutdown.
Inspection scope is engineered to minimise shutdown dependency while maintaining confidence in vessel condition.
NII is not a standalone test. It is part of an engineered workflow from screening through execution to evaluation.
Inspection outcomes are determined before execution begins.
