Asset Reliability Inspections

🚁 Drone technology allows asset inspections to be conducted in difficult-to-reach areas without putting people at height.

It is changing the way inspections are performed across the asset integrity industry by reducing the need for scaffolding, rope access and confined space entry.

We offer drone-assisted inspections to help improve safety, reduce costs and provide faster access to data.

🔎 Why does asset inspection matter?

Asset condition can change throughout its service life due to operating conditions, environmental exposure and general wear.

Key outcomes of asset inspection include:
✔ Improve asset reliability
✔ Reduce unplanned downtime
✔ Extend asset lifespan
✔ Reduce maintenance costs
✔ Improve workplace safety
✔ Maintain compliance

Regular inspections help industrial operators better understand asset condition, identify potential issues and make informed decisions.

🗨️ Today is R U OK? Day, a reminder that checking in with the people around us shouldn’t be limited to just one day.

This morning, our teams across offices came together to learn more about our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and ways to check in with each other. 🤝

Looking out for one another is important for building a safe and supportive workplace. If someone’s on your mind, start a conversation today. It could make a real difference.

Results Matter reflects the purpose behind our work.

The services we provide contribute to safer operations and have a direct impact on people’s safety.

With Father’s Day coming up this Sunday, 6 September, we want to re-emphasise the importance of providing a safe workplace for everyone. 👷‍♂️

Asset inspections play an important role in identifying potential issues and reducing the risk of workplace hazards caused by equipment failure. Reliable inspection results help businesses make informed decisions about their assets and support safer, more reliable operations.

We hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable weekend!

💡 Do you have questions about industrial asset inspections?

We've put together a Frequently Asked Questions page to answer some of the questions we're asked most often, such as:
• What is Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)?
• When is radiographic testing used?
• How often pressure vessels should be inspected?

Mining operations rely on both fixed plant and mobile plant to keep production moving, minimise workplace hazards and support compliance with WHS requirements.

ARI provides non-destructive testing (NDT) and inspection services across a wide range of mining assets to identify defects early and provide actionable data.

Our inspection capabilities include:
• Fixed plant: crushers, conveyors, stackers, reclaimers and processing infrastructure.
• Mobile plant: haul trucks, excavators, loaders and other heavy mining equipment.

Corrosion under pipe supports (CUPS) is a common challenge for industrial assets. These defects are often hidden and require regular inspection to help prevent failures.

Using Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT), our team can rapidly screen for corrosion under pipe supports and provide quantitative wall loss measurements without lifting the supports. The data also provides actionable insights to support maintenance and operational decision-making.
