Sonomatic were employed in order to carry out inspection modelling to determine the capability of the proposed inspection method to detect defects within the weld as defined by the DNV Offshore Standard DNV-OS-F101. The qualification process followed the guidelines set out by ENIQ (European Network for Inspection Qualification). Benefits: The Civa modelling was an important element in the qualification following the ENIQ guidelines. The benefits of completing Civa a
