In-Water Ultrasonic Thickness (UT) Testing — Kotor Bay

Ultrasonic thickness testing measures remaining steel plate thickness through the coating, without grinding a bare-metal spot — the standard method for tracking corrosion and wastage against a vessel's original scantlings. Every sounding we take is logged against its exact position, then pinned directly onto the vessel's 3D digital twin, so a thinning trend across a ballast tank or a boot-top run is visible as a map, not a table of coordinates someone has to mentally place.

Why it matters in Kotor Bay

A deep natural bay on the Adriatic holding both the UNESCO-listed old town of Kotor and Tivat, where the former Arsenal naval shipyard was redeveloped into Porto Montenegro, one of the Adriatic's largest superyacht marinas.

A former naval shipyard turned large-scale superyacht marina means a genuine, standing local market for in-water hull survey, class inspection support, and routine marina seabed clearance.

Deliverable

A UT sounding report with every reading pinned to its location on the 3D model, plus the raw data set.
