“…Integrating advanced welding techniques with non-destructive testing (NDT) is paramount in ensuring weld quality, structural integrity, and safety in offshore structures. This collaborative approach combines the benefits of advanced welding methods, such as Friction Stir Welding, Laser Welding, and Electron Beam Welding, with the capabilities of NDT methods like Ultrasonic Testing, Radiographic Testing, Magnetic Particle Inspection, and others (Juengert et al, 2022;Raj, Subramanian, & Jayakumar, 2000).…”

“…Conducting NDT inspections immediately after welding enables early identification of defects in the fabrication process. This timely detection allows for necessary corrective measures to be taken and prevents the spread of defects that might compromise structural integrity and safety (Juengert et al, 2022;Lasserre et al, 2017;Rosado et al, 2010).…”

The offshore oil and gas industry plays a crucial role in meeting global energy demands; however, it is fraught with inherent safety risks that necessitate constant welding and testing techniques advancements. This research paper reviews the significance of advanced welding and testing for safety in offshore oil and gas operations. This article explores traditional welding methods and their limitations in ensuring structural integrity and safety. It delves into a comprehensive analysis of advanced welding technologies, including friction stir welding, laser welding, and electron beam welding, highlighting their potential benefits in mitigating safety concerns. Moreover, the study examines the role of non-destructive testing (NDT) methods, such as ultrasonic testing, radiographic testing, and magnetic particle inspection, in evaluating weld quality and structural integrity. An emphasis is placed on integrating advanced welding techniques with NDT, demonstrating how this symbiotic relationship enhances safety and effectively identifies flaws and defects. Real-life case studies exemplify the practical implementation of these technologies in safeguarding offshore structures. The paper also addresses the challenges of adopting advanced welding and testing methods and envisions potential future developments in these technologies. Furthermore, it sheds light on existing regulatory frameworks and standards governing welding and testing in offshore operations, underscoring their role in ensuring safety and compliance.
