The oil and gas industry, a major provider of global energy, faces significant risks related to pipeline corrosion, especially in ultra-deepwater environments where exploration depths can reach up to 3000 meters. This paper discusses the development and implementation of advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques and inspection tools, such as the PROVUS system, to monitor and mitigate these risks.

PROVUS, developed by PETROBRAS, utilizes pulse-echo ultrasonic transducers designed to withsta
