Capabilities

Testing, inspection, and engineering services powered by IIT.

H2O Engineering delivers material testing, inspection, and engineering services using our in-house Instrumented Indentation Testing (IIT) technology.
We perform laboratory evaluation and on-site inspection of operational equipment and structures, including post-incident evaluation, acceptance inspection, and product and material testing.
Our work focuses on obtaining reliable material property data directly from real components, supporting maintenance decisions, product validation, and engineering design in demanding industrial environments where material reliability is critical.

Service scope
  • On-site testing and inspection
  • Laboratory-based material evaluation
  • Reporting and result interpretation
  • Engineering applications and product design support
  • Technical consulting and application guidance

On-site testing and inspection

We perform on-site material property evaluation directly on operational industrial assets under real operating conditions.

  • Field application of IIT methodology
  • In-situ evaluation without destructive sampling
  • Pipelines, pressure vessels, turbines, and process systems

Laboratory-based material evaluation

Laboratory-based evaluation is performed under controlled conditions using client-supplied samples for comparison, validation, and detailed material analysis.

  • Mechanical property evaluation using IIT methodology
  • Material comparison and condition assessment
  • Technical interpretation and reporting

Reporting and interpretation

Results are delivered with technical interpretation, ensuring material property data is clearly understood in the context of the asset or structure.

  • Technical reporting for client review
  • Interpretation linked to the asset or structure condition
  • Useful output for follow-up engineering action

Integrity, maintenance, and failure support

These services support condition assessment without operational interruption, enabling integrity evaluation, maintenance planning, and failure analysis.

  • Residual stress assessment using IIT methodology
  • Structural integrity assessment support
  • Support for RBI and FFS-related workflows

Engineering applications and development support

IIT is applied to prototyping, material evaluation, selection, and performance verification during design and validation stages.

  • Material property evaluation for engineering and design
  • Technical support for material selection and verification
  • Mechanical property assessment during design stages

Application guidance and technical consulting

We support correct application of IIT methods and integration of results into inspection, maintenance, and engineering workflows.

  • Scope planning for field and laboratory application
  • Guidance on result interpretation and deployment
  • Manufacturer-backed technical support
Context

Where the service is used

Depending on project requirements, testing is performed on client-supplied samples in the laboratory, directly on operational assets in the field, or through a combined evaluation approach.

Output

What clients receive

Clients receive measured material property data, technical reporting, and interpretation linked to the condition of the tested asset, along with guidance for follow-up engineering action.
