Inspection and NDT ERP software in Oman
Atlantis NDT ERP is inspection-management software for NDT service providers, inspection contractors, fabricators and QA departments operating in Oman. It replaces the spreadsheet stack most inspection businesses run on — technician certification currency, equipment calibration control, inspection scheduling, multi-crew work orders, client asset registers, job costing and audit-ready document retention — on one Odoo-based platform.
Who operates in Oman
Petroleum Development Oman across the interior fields, OQ refineries and petrochemicals at Sohar and Duqm, Vale and Jindal industrial facilities at Sohar port, and the Duqm refinery and drydock complex.
What governs inspection work here
PDO and OQ contractor approval regimes set the practical bar, applied over ASME and API inspection codes. Oman's Ministry of Labour occupational safety requirements and radiation-source licensing apply, and in-country value (ICV) requirements affect how contractors staff and structure local operations.
What actually decides the purchase in Oman
Work is geographically dispersed between the interior fields, Sohar and Duqm, so crew mobilisation cost and scheduling across long distances materially affects contract margin — which makes work-order-level job costing more than an accounting nicety.
- Certification currency per method — SNT-TC-1A, ISO 9712, NAS 410 and client-specific approvals — with dispatch lockout the moment anything lapses.
- Calibration control with ISO 17025 traceability across flaw detectors, thickness gauges, probes, wedges, reference blocks and step wedges.
- Condition-driven inspection scheduling: next-inspection dates computed from measured corrosion rate under API 510/570/653 rather than a fixed calendar.
- Offline mobile field capture for confined spaces, vessels, offshore platforms and remote sites with no connectivity.
- Client-specific report templates rendered from one dataset, so the same survey issues three ways without re-keying.
- Work-order-level job costing including mobilisation, standby and travel, so per-contract margin is visible while the contract is running.
- Document control on procedures, written practices and technique sheets, with the revision in force on any historical inspection date recoverable.
Regional asset base in detail
- Muscat — Muscat serves as the operational hub for Petroleum Development Oman's extensive onshore oil production network, the OQ (Orpic) Sohar refinery, and LNG trains at Sur that export to global markets. PDO's ongoing digitisation programme and Vision Oman 2040 both emphasise technology adoption in asset management, making digital twin inspection data integration an aligned strategic priority.
- Sohar — Sohar is a Middle East operator centre where digital twin overlay of inspection + RBI + FFS data integrates with Aramco, ADNOC, KOC, KNPC, Bapco, NIOC, QatarEnergy operator stacks. Atlantis NDT Digital Twin platform — affordable, accessible, fully customizable — delivers operator-format dashboards, multi-language inspection workflow visualisation, and audit-ready RBI cycle automation..
- Duqm — Duqm is Oman's flagship Special Economic Zone (SEZAD), built around the greenfield Duqm Refinery operated by OQ8, a joint venture between Oman's OQ and Kuwait Petroleum International designed to process heavy and sour crude blends at 230,000 bpd, alongside the Duqm Port, dry dock, and a planned petrochemical complex. As a newly built refinery and industrial city rising in a previously undeveloped coastal desert location, Duqm's operators face the challenge of establishing digital-first asset integrity programs from first oil rather than retrofitting legacy paper systems, with Oman's Ministry of Energy and Minerals pushing RBI and FFS compliance across new pressure vessel and piping populations.
- Salalah — Salalah in southern Oman combines the Port of Salalah, one of the region's largest transshipment ports, with the Salalah Free Zone's petrochemical and methanol production, anchored by Salalah Methanol Company's world-scale methanol plant supplying regional and export markets. The methanol plant's high-pressure synthesis loops, reformers, and cryogenic-adjacent storage require rigorous API 510/570 mechanical integrity programs, while the port's fuel bunkering and product storage terminals add tank and pipeline inspection scope under Oman's Ministry of Energy and Minerals oversight.

Frequently asked questions
Which ERP suits an inspection or NDT company in Oman?
The deciding capabilities in Oman are certification currency with hard lockout on lapse, instrument and reference-block calibration traceability, condition-driven inspection scheduling under API 510/570/653, offline field capture, and job costing at work-order level. Generic ERP and generic CMMS both model the money and the maintenance well and the personnel-qualification and calibration evidence badly, which is exactly the evidence a client audit tests. Work is geographically dispersed between the interior fields, Sohar and Duqm, so crew mobilisation cost and scheduling across long distances materially affects contract margin — which makes work-order-level job costing more than an accounting nicety.
Which regulations and client audit regimes does it need to support in Oman?
PDO and OQ contractor approval regimes set the practical bar, applied over ASME and API inspection codes. Oman's Ministry of Labour occupational safety requirements and radiation-source licensing apply, and in-country value (ICV) requirements affect how contractors staff and structure local operations. The platform holds the underlying evidence in structured, exportable form — qualification currency, calibration certificates and traceability, procedure revisions under document control, and inspection results with the provenance applicable at the time of test — so producing an audit pack is an export rather than a document hunt.
How long does implementation take?
Six to ten weeks for a typical 20–60 technician business: one to two weeks of discovery and migration mapping, three weeks configuring certification, calibration and work-order modules against your written practice, two weeks piloting on one client contract, then rollout. Historical certification records and calibration certificates are migrated as part of that, which is why the timeline is measured in weeks rather than days.
Can it run alongside the operator's own SAP or Maximo?
Yes, and that is the normal arrangement. The operator's system stays authoritative for their work management and cost; Atlantis runs your side of the relationship — crews, certifications, calibration, scheduling, reporting and job costing — and pushes findings across by REST API or supported connector so results land where the client expects them.
