In-Field Alignment of Backscatter Computed Tomography (BCT) Electro-Mechanical Platform
EF 2014-15
Résumé
The proposed project will enable Inversa's Backscatter Computed Tomography system to be used in harshenvironments such as off shore oil and gas platforms. The project team will develop processes and technicalsolutions focusing on in-field alignment, reliability, and portability. The potential impacts from this project arehigh as there are currently no readily available inspection technologies combining high precision and mobility.The mobility and ease of use will permit on-site inspection in remote locations commonly found in the oil andgas sector. This project not only gives a Canadian company an edge in creating and leading an emergingmarket, it will also provide benefits to the oil and gas sector which represents a key part of Canada's exportstrategy.
