Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) Inspection:
Verification of coating thickness, adhesion, and uniformity in accordance with API 5L, NACE, and client-specific requirements.
Pre- and post-heating inspections, holiday detection, and surface profile assessments to ensure optimal coating performance.
Liquid Epoxy & Polyurethane Coatings:
Assessment of surface preparation, wet film thickness (WFT), dry film thickness (DFT), and curing conditions.
Monitoring of ambient and substrate temperature, humidity, and environmental conditions to verify compliance with manufacturer and project specifications.
Thermal Spray & Metallic Coatings:
Measurement of coating thickness, roughness, and porosity for arc-sprayed or flame-sprayed metallic coatings.
Ensuring uniform coverage, adhesion, and surface integrity to extend asset life in corrosive environments.
Field-Applied Coating Inspection:
Inspection of pipeline coatings, tanks, skids, and aboveground structures during construction and maintenance.
Holiday testing, adhesion testing, visual inspection, and documentation per NACE SP0188 and SSPC standards.
Vendor Surveillance of Coated Materials:
Factory and shop visits to verify coating application, cure, and quality prior to shipment.
Compliance auditing against project-specific requirements for valves, fittings, skids, and pressure vessels.
Documentation & Reporting:
Comprehensive inspection reports detailing thickness measurements, defect location mapping, photos, and recommendations.
Digital reporting compatible with client quality management systems for traceability and verification.

OMC International ensures your coatings perform right the first time—protecting your assets and project schedules.
Our team provides comprehensive preliminary coating inspection services, including holiday detection and two-part repairs where required. These inspections verify that your materials meet API standards and your project’s specified coating requirements. Our preliminary inspections include, but are not limited to:
Overall Coating & Steel Integrity – Visual assessment of surface and structural condition
Mil & Pit Readings – Accurate measurement of coating thickness and surface defects
Ovality & Bevel Angle Checks – Ensuring pipe geometry meets project specifications
UT Mic Checks – Ultrasonic verification when necessary
Holiday Detection & Two-Part Repairs – Identify coating defects and restore integrity
Full Traceability – Complete tracking of inspections and materials
MTR & Lab Documentation Review – Confirm material certifications and test reports
These services ensure your pipeline or equipment is compliant, high-quality, and ready for the next stage of construction or installation.
