Petroleum and Chemical Industry Applications
About Us
The Petroleum and Chemical Industry has a wide array of
testing needs and analysis applications such as
verification of the metal chemistry or alloy grade of metal
components and raw materials.  

Positive Material Identification (PMI) is critical for assuring
safe plant facilities and components that require specific
alloy grade to insure their proper performance.

The produced fuel, oil, and chemicals require verification
of the composition and physical properties according to
specifications and for process control.
