Guidance on Non-Destructive Examination (NDE) by Means of Magnetic Rope Testing

This document has been published to provide guidance on the use of non-destructive examination by mneans of MRT for wire ropes, to assist with inspection and integrity management.

It is designed as supplementary guidance to IMCA SEL 022 - Guidance on wire rope integrity management for vessels in the offshore industry - in which NDE is identified as one of the five tools which can form part of a wire rope integrity management system. Where there are limiting factors to the use of NDE equipment, IMCA SEL 022 gives further guidance.

These guidelines are also available with the reference IMCA M 197.
