NORNER offers advanced durability testing at critical environments and life time studies for non-metallic materials

Industrial Impact

Today’s wide range of products and materials involves a broad range of requirements. Failures due to poor material selection are common in the oil and gas industry. This can be related to lack of awareness and understanding of properties and the influence of natural elements.

The Oil and gas activity involves operations in severe climate conditions. This environmental challenge introduces higher demands to chemical compatibility and resistance to high pressure in combination with high temperature.

Norner has the competence, equipment and resources to provide material testing according to international standards.Our modern laboratory support customers directly with required tests.
