目前接触巴西石油项目,在该项目中明确在巴西外可以接受的无损检测资格证书如下:
1. 德国发证:DGZfP和SECTOR Cert
2. 南非发证: PCN
3. 澳大利亚发证: PCN
4. 欧洲地区发证: 欧洲本土MRA成员发证
5. 美国发证: ACCP(不接受SNT TC-1A雇主发证证书)
6. 阿拉伯联合发证: PCN
7. 香港发证: PCN
8. 日本发证: JSNDI
9. 马来西亚发证: PCN
其中显然不包括中国学会。
特别强调注解6 如下:
Note 6 – ATTENTION: We had received certificates, that are not acceptable for PETROBRAS, with the following approximate content “Certificate: As a Recognized Third Party Organization “Entity A” has approved “Person X” to perform NDT tests on pressure equipment in categories III and IV in accordance with Annex I, section 3.1.3, of the European Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23 EC. This approval relates to the performance of “Penetrant Testing” Level 2/Level 3, Level 2/Level 3 as defined by EN 473 or ISO 9712…”. These certificates do not certify that the persons are Level 2 or Level 3 Professionals qualified and certified in accordance with EN 473 or ISO 9712 standards. In fact, these are certificates issued by “Entity A” that state that “Entity A”, as a RTPO-Recognized Third Party Organization approved that said persons perform NDT testing in pressure vessels as Level 2/Level 3 (Level 2/Level 3 as defined by EN 473 or ISO 9712), on pressure equipment in categories III and IV in accordance with Annex I, section 3.1.3, of the European Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23 EC. That is, the certificates are sufficient for the European Community, which require that the certification of NDT personnel, even those performed by the supplier itself (1st. Part) or by a 2nd. Part, has to be evaluated by an RTPO.
But the certificates do not comply with PETROBRAS requirements, because these certificates do not certify that the persons are certified by an independent certification board and in accordance EN 473 or ISO 9712 standards.
某些机构按照PED97/23/EC颁发的证书,即使证书上标明“Level 2/Level 3 as defined by EN 473 or ISO 9712--按照EN473或ISO9712定义的2或3级”,但由于发证机构不是按照EN473或ISO9712标准进行第三方独立发证,仅符合PED要求,不能符合巴油要求!
所以我再次强调:我们应按照我们自己的需要选择合适的培训发证机构,避免取得证书不被国际客户接受的尴尬!
提醒:
1、发证机构的合法性,是否具有认可授权;
2、发证证书的适用性,关心适用范围和客户的接受程度,一般客户比较熟悉和喜欢自己国家的系统,比如客户来自德国,建议采用德国的发证。注:欧洲地区主要出口量,德国第一,其数值是第二名法国的2倍多,更不要谈第3名的意大利了;
3、证书的含金量关键在培训上,我国探伤与欧洲,尤其德国仍存在一定的差距,应重视培训课程是否完整,短期速成班仅关注证书不可取。可能导致有证不会干活的尴尬!
