Seeking Technical Committee Support for Evaluating Digital Surface Cleanliness Measurement Device

  • 1.  Seeking Technical Committee Support for Evaluating Digital Surface Cleanliness Measurement Device

    Posted 07-14-2025 05:34 AM

    Dear AMPP Research Community,

    I am reaching out on behalf of the Saudi Aramco Project Inspection Department, where we are currently piloting a digital surface cleanliness measurement device developed by one of our vendor. The purpose of this initiative is to align the device's output, which quantifies surface cleanliness levels with internationally recognized visual standards such as ISO 8501-1 and SSPC/NACE VIS 1 & VIS 3.

    We are seeking technical guidance and collaboration with the appropriate AMPP committee or expert working group to support the evaluation of this device. Specifically, we aim to establish objective, standardized calibration references that are aligned with AMPP standards and best practices.

    Thank you in advance for your guidance and support.

    George, 

    Would you be interested in presenting to the group? We get a lot more engagement during our virtual meetings than we do here on the forum website.  The group may be a great place to start the discussion and get this on someone's radar. 

    Thank you,
