OCTG Inspections

Global Energy Ventures was originally conceived to provide internationally recognised standards of NDT inspection & OCTG services to the otherwise ill served Oil & Gas sectors in West Africa. Indeed, we were the first company to offer DS1 CAT 1-5 & API RP7-G to drilling contractors in the Cote D'Ivoire & Ghana and as such expanded very quickly having invested heavily in technology and training over the past decade.

Our OCTG teams are a blend of the most highly qualified expatriates and locals available engaged in service arrangements with a majority of the drillers and exploration companies in the region.
