Digital Twin for Asset Integrity in Teesside — NDT Data on a Live 3D Model
Atlantis NDT Digital Twin gives integrity teams in Teesside, UK one 3D model of the asset with every UT, PAUT, TOFD, RT, MT, PT and ET reading mapped to the exact location it was taken. Corrosion rates trend automatically, API 581 RBI scores update as data lands, and API 579-1/ASME FFS-1 Level 1 and Level 2 assessments run against measured thickness instead of a spreadsheet snapshot.
The Teesside asset base this is built for
Teesside on the Tees Estuary is one of the UK's oldest and densest chemical clusters, home to SABIC UK Petrochemicals' olefins complex, Huntsman's manufacturing plants, the Sembcorp-managed Wilton International site, and the Eni-operated CATS gas terminal that processes North Sea gas for onward distribution. The region is now also the site of Net Zero Teesside, one of the UK's largest carbon capture and storage projects, layering new CO2 gathering pipelines and compression infrastructure onto an estate of process plants dating back decades. UK HSE COMAH oversight and the scale of interconnected pipework between operators make cross-site asset visibility essential, particularly as ageing units approach end-of-design-life alongside brand-new CCS infrastructure. Digital twins combining UT/PAUT thickness survey data with RBI programs let Teesside operators manage FFS assessments per API 579 on legacy vessels while sequencing construction of the new CCS pipeline network without disrupting live production.

How the twin is built
Capture the geometry (LiDAR, photogrammetry, drone survey, or import your existing BIM/CAD and isometrics), ingest inspection data over REST API or file drop from any instrument, overlay the governing damage mechanisms per API RP 571, then publish colour-coded remaining-life and RBI views to integrity, maintenance and planning. Records are retained audit-ready under ISO 9001, ISO 17020 and ISO 17025.
Integrations
SAP PM, Oracle eAM, IBM Maximo, ServiceNow, AVEVA PI, OSIsoft historians, Bentley iTwin, Cognite and Atlantis NDT ERP. Full REST API and bulk data export — you keep your data in a format you can leave with.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Atlantis Digital Twin work in Teesside?
We start with a 3D scan of your asset (drone, laser, photogrammetry), build a CAD-fidelity model, and then overlay every NDT inspection event (UT thickness readings, TOFD/PAUT scans, MT/PT indications, RT defect maps). Inspection data updates the model in real-time and colour-codes condition zones for engineering review. Operators in Teesside use this to drive faster turnaround scoping, automated FFS evidence, and audit-grade regulatory reporting.
What does Digital Twin NDT cost in Teesside?
Atlantis Digital Twin is an affordable, accessible, fully customizable enterprise SaaS platform sized for up to 500 assets, with ASNT Level III consulting and unlimited NDT data ingest included. Enterprise tiers are available for multi-site fleets, and on-prem deployment is offered at the same price point. Request a Teesside-specific quote and we will model your asset count and data-volume requirements.
How long does deployment take in Teesside?
A typical first-asset deployment runs 8-12 weeks: 2 weeks model build, 2 weeks data integration, 2-4 weeks workflow configuration, 2 weeks user training. Multi-asset rollouts are sequenced asset-by-asset after the first deployment is live, with each subsequent asset typically taking 4-6 weeks once the platform is configured for your Teesside site.
Which NDT standards does the platform support in Teesside?
API 510 (pressure vessels), API 570 (piping), API 653 (storage tanks), API 579 FFS, API 581 RBI, ASME Section V articles 2/4/6/7, ISO 9712 personnel qualification, ASNT SNT-TC-1A, and local code requirements depending on Teesside's regulatory environment. Custom reporting templates can be configured for any additional national or operator-specific code.
Can Atlantis Digital Twin integrate with our existing CMMS in Teesside?
Yes. We support REST API hooks for IBM Maximo, SAP PM, IFS, Oracle EAM, and most major CMMS platforms. Work-order creation, asset master sync, anomaly hand-off into corrective work, and FFS evidence packaging for management-of-change submittals can all be automated, allowing your Teesside integrity team to focus on engineering judgement rather than data entry.
