The supply chain in the oil and gas industry is divided into three major segments - Upstream, midstream, and downstream. From the various activities conducted, drilling is a significant activity. Drilling activities are efficiently carried out using drilling rigs. A Drilling Rig is an equipment used to create holes or wells in the earth's surface. Drilling rigs are selected based on the requirements of the drill site. Rigs are generally categorized as onshore(land) and offshore(marine). You must know this topic in detail as it is an integral part of the oil and gas training courses online. Ons ..read more

Dye penetrant test is a type of visual inspection for the detection of surface flaws and discontinuities. In one of the earlier blogs, we discussed the various processes and materials involved in the test. We all know that penetrants are the key detecting elements that help in successful flaw detection. Here, we will discuss the type of penetrants used in dye penetrant tests. This is an essential topic in the oil and gas courses for mechanical engineers.
