Welder Qualification Test (WQT)
Our Surveillance Department can independently witness and verify welders, who follow detailed written instructions to produce test pieces (usually in the form of a Preliminary Welding Procedure Specification – pWPS – or a Welding Procedure Specification – WPS). We then coordinate testing of these pieces through our independent NABL accredited laboratory to enable qualification or coding to a National, European or Internationally recognized standard.
We also offer a programme for managing the ongoing qualification/requalification of welders and for organizing documentation of evidence that can be used to support certificate prolongation
