SGS, the world’s leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company, will be making its first attendance at the Offshore Wind China 2011 Conference and Exhibition in Shanghai, and at the Wind Power Asia 2011 in Beijing, both of which are leading renewable energy events in Asia.
From June 15-17, 2011, SGS will be attending the Offshore Wind China 2011 Conference and Exhibition in Shanghai. At stand no. E4-B020 in Shanghai’s New International Expo Center, SGS Industrial Services will showcase its wide portfolio of services it has on offer for the renewable energy sector. The conference and exhibition present a unique chance for SGS to present its wide range of services for the renewable energy sector, including Coating Inspection and Failure Analysis. In addition, SGS’ expert, Jo Van Montfort, will hold a particularly pertinent presentation on SGS Coating and Corrosion Inspection Services on June 16, 2011, at the conference to be held at Pudong Shangri-La Kerry Hotel.
With Coating Inspection and Failure Analysis, SGS inspects the coating work and investigates the causes of coating failures such as concrete decay, corrosion and loosening adhesive coats, in order to ensure the durability of structures and components as well as avoid large repair costs and lengthy downtime.
From June 22-24, 2011, SGS will be participating in another renewable energy event – Wind Power Asia Conference 2011 at the National Convention Center in Beijing, China. During the entire event, attendees will have an exquisite opportunity to learn more about the complexity of various SGS’ Renewable Energy Services. Furthermore, Senior Wind Turbine Inspector Onshore and Offshore at SGS, Olaf Robenek, will give a presentation on SGS In-Service Inspections Services on June 23, 2011. The three-day event presents a unique occasion for SGS to present to the participants a wide range of its services for the onshore renewable energy sector, including Commissioning and In-Service Inspections.
SGS’s Commissioning and In-Service Inspections involve a series of activities in which the various components of a wind turbine are regularly inspected and monitored throughout their entire operational lifetime. Using a system of diverse inspection methods and analyses ensures that any unexpected degradation from normal operational conditions is detected as early as possible in order to prevent consequent damage to wind turbines.
