Inspection Services
 
Introduction
Boiler inspection services are UDC's core business. All repair recommendations through our inspection program are unbiased; based on sound engineering judgement, experience, and quantitative data for justification purposes with an understanding of the current plant economic environment.

UDC services a variety of makes (B&W, CE, FW, Riley Stoker), vintages, sizes (20mw to 1300mw), and designs of boilers. Fossil fuel, waste to energy, and HRSG units are our specialty.

On average, UDC performs 80 to 100 utility boiler inspections annually within the continental US and abroad. UDC's portfolio includes work performed in China, Canada, Dominican Republic, Trinidad, and the Virgin Islands.
 
Why Choose UDC for Inspection Services?
Five core values place UDC in the forefront of boiler inspection

1) Experience
UDC field service boiler inspection representatives are more experienced. Each representative at UDC is exposed to 25+ outages per year possessing 5 to 10+ years of field service experience.

2) Consistency
The same UDC boiler inspection representatives return to your outages. This promotes consistent, accurate, and efficient boiler inspections and builds a strong relationship between plant personnel and UDC staff.

3) Knowledge
UDC services literally hundreds of boilers including a variety of makes, vintages, sizes, and designs. With this exposure, a continuous learning atmosphere is created and a wealth of knowledge is developed by each and every service representative from repair methodology to the latest inspection procedures and technologies.

4) Schedule
UDC can conduct a full-scope boiler inspection in a short period of time utilizing a large and experienced inspection team. UDC routinely accommodates this type of boiler inspection project for many customers promoting the maximization of plant maintenance resources and budget.

5) Real Time Reports
Throughout the duration of the outage, reports are issued after each component of the boiler is inspected. This creates an environment which limits downtime for skilled laborers and allows you (the client) sufficient time to review, verify/ order materials, and designate which repairs will be addressed during the overhaul.

“We’ve become a leader in the fleet. Please make sure you convey to your teams where we stand on some of our numbers.”
