Originally developed for applications within the nuclear industry, ABI® testing has been used on pressure vessels, forgings, coke drums, offshore platforms, and oil & gas pipelines to deterministically assess the structural integrity of these components following normal and accident service conditions.

Nondestructive testing helps companies reduce costs as the material to be tested can survive the process unharmed, thus saving resources. Nondestructive testing is also safe as it consists of methods that are harmless to humans. Nondestructive testing is also known for its high efficiency rate that involves thorough methods that offer a quick evaluation of materials. Nondestructive testing is also highly accurate and predictable without inflicting harm to workers.
Internal pressure or a hoop stress condition creates ONLY elastic stress on the internal surface of an in-service pipeline. The maximum allowed hoop stress cannot produce yield strength of the pipe in order to avoid pipeline bulging and any potential failure. Hence, the elastic stress (which is lower than the yield strength by the margin of safety used in the MAOP) cannot affect the test results of the ABI®test.
