A Day in the Life of Rope Access NDT
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 жов 2024
- Have a glimpse of how #NDT inspection is done #offshore and at heights. Here we did Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) of a stowed crane hook using #ropeaccess and rope to rope transfer. The other job is to do Eddy Current Inspection of a towing bridle assembly. Again using rope access.
Beautiful day on the ropes! Nice video
I wish to make more videos but in most places I work, it is not allowed.
@@DIYPhil I have that exact same problem! Sometimes I manage to sneak in a camera. Some the place could result in some pretty epic video’s.
Dude that's awesome! I wanted to be an NDT inspector, I thought it would be fun, but life took me in a different direction :)
Aye bro im in college right now for ndt.
About how much was the starting salaries
What happned? Bro
@@labrandonwashington8865 that should have been researched prior to getting into a degree, no matter the degree.

Beautiful rope to rope transfer
Thank you. The rope-to-rope transfer in this situation is more intimidating than what we did during training because of the height and in open seas, there is also gust of wind.
I recently got hired as an NDT technician and my boss wants me to do rope service.. any tips on over comming a fear of heights haha
I have a fear of heights too. I take a deep breath before I go down on the ropes. Fortunately, our level 3 rope access guy is very supportive and talking us through the steps we need to do, make sure we are safe. Once you are working with what ever you have to do, you focus on your work and will forget about the heights.
Get hypnosis mate. Worked for me. I've been in rope access for years now. Was still scary at the start though.
The crew you work with makes all the difference. We have fun and joke around. Takes the edge off at times. And if you dont feel comfortable doing a job ket it be known. A good Lvl 3 will reassure you and make you that much more comfortable.
@@mrbocanegraw well said mate
@@mrbocanegraw as a level 3, I couldnt agree more.
We use S.Tec Ducks as our back up for the company I work for. My instructor taught me that she’s my wife while on the ropes. Treat her right and she will let you live another day, piss her off and she’ll drop you like a bad habit Lolol. Have fun hangin and bangin sailor. Looks like lots of fun and good money 🤑
Wheres your fishing line ? Got to have that hanging down too
Good idea. Will surely have that next time
Very cool! Thanks for sharing this!
Thanks for watching!
Did your company have a abseiler blasting painting sir? I am Abseiler blasting paling level 3 now. I am from Malaysian. And I work at dubai too. Because my company is dubai company
Hi. No we do not do blasting and painting jobs. Stay safe out there.
Damn, ito inaaral namin sa subject namin none destructive testing and eddy current testing akala ko sa eroplano lang to ginagawa. Goodthing nag stalk ako sa channel mo sir keep it up
maraming salamat po. kung may pagkakataon, mag video uli ako ng ginagawa naming NDT sa trabaho para ma upload ko na content. kadalasan kasi bawal mag video. Aeronautics po ba course nyo?
@@DIYPhil Aircraft Maintenance Technician po sir ang course ko, tanong ko lang po if ano po ang requirements para maging NDT technician?
@@tukmolskiebulbulskie336 may mga training at certificates. pero kadalasan employer ang nagpapa training
@@DIYPhil required po ba na college graduate?
@@tukmolskiebulbulskie336 hindi naman. marami ako nakasama lalo na mga old timer mga HS grad lang. lalo na yung mga kasama naming puti, mga HS grad lang
Hello, what is your work schedule like on offshore rigs? Is it 12s for a month with every other month off? How long did it take you to get into offshore work?
Thank you for your time!
It really depends on available jobs. It is not a regular offshore job rotation for me. We go to offshore job in an on-call basis.
Is this job only possible with the IRATA certificate? I'm a Rope Technician lvl2 but made my certification in switzerland by the Swiss Mountain Guide Association.
Hi. There is another rope access trade organization called SPRAT so the short answer to your question is no. It really depends on the company and the client. IRATA I think is more common especially in the Oil and Gas sector.
Thank you for your answer. Wish you all the best out there.
😂looks like fun 😂
Crane block can be lowered down for MPI & where the hell u learned your ECI from?? Towing bridle can be lifted up by towing winch. I hope u know what u are doing!!
Hi. I appreciate your comments and thanks for the concern. But it is clear that you don't know what you are talking about and just speculating. The crane block is for most of the time lowered to the deck to do the MPI, except in occasional circumstances such as when it is undergoing major maintenance. The towing bridle in the video is lifted up by the towing winch. And guess what, it is still over water.
Very good job
thank you very much
Nice. Safety First!
Thanks
Dear I have IRATA level 1 .Now I am working in rope access in UAE.I want to come in NDT field also.I am graduate by edu sir.plz tell me good way to come in this field.when I join it.after my IRATA level 3 or now.plz
My colleagues and myself are IRATA level 1 only. The level 3 working with us is not a NDT tech at all. So to answer your question, you don't need to be Level 3 to be in the ndt field.
@@DIYPhil thanks dear so which is best NDT course for me as I am graduate in science and now in UAE.can you please explain its scope in present and future and also in Europe with salary ranges plz
I know training Center in Abu dhabi. MEITI look for boss Akila
Would that life jacket save you if you fell in the water?
If free falling from considerable height, the only help the life jacket can do is make it easier for the search party to recover the body. In a scenario where for some reason we have to go down to the water in controlled descent, then life vest is necessary.
I currently work at Cleveland Cliffs steel mill in Weirton WV... I was told by the diving institute of Seattle about NDT... What is the average starting wage for this profession?
Would depend on your certifications really, it’d be safe to say high $20s minimum and that’s if your on the bottom of the spectrum. You could expect $30-$40 at the right company starting out
Cool... Stay safe
thanks.
good job
Thanks
lmfao how many times did you curse cause of the life jacket?
You bet! it is a fight against the equipment
Im asnt level 2 and irata level 1 fresher... Can u please guide how to proceed further to get a job in offshore like u sir...
From my experience and what I have seen, there are 2 ways. First is you got a job from an inspection company that service the offshore client. The second is go freelance then there are man power agency that get offshore workers in short contract duration.
This job is highly risked job. What about your salary??
of course the salary compensate the hazard of the job.
Varies vastly.
$30/hr to paint rollercoasters and cell towers. Had to pay for own SPRAT ($1500 for level 1, also varies). No painting experience needed, just needed certificate.
Buddy is a rope access welder, also $30/hr. Company paid (reimbursed) for SPRAT. No rope experience required, needed 2yrs welding experience.
I always say there's no such thing as "starting pay", it's about how well you sell yourself in the interview (for any industry). Have a skill you think is useful? Bring it up in the interview, might be worth another 50 cents, doesn't hurt to try.
Disclaimer: Offshore is basically a different industry, I stay over land, their numbers are likely different. Worldwide you need IRATA (SPRAT is USA)
Nice job bro
Thanks
NDT MEIN RT YA UT,VT,UGT IS ME SE KON HAI ANSWER
Should see what a day in the life of a rope access technician that actually fixes stuff instead of just looking at it looks like...lol
Hi. I'll be doing rope access job next week replacing lightning protection on the crane and derrick. I'll see if have a chance to take videos.
I want job
I m Curious to know the salary 😅 cuz I'm materials student
It can be as high as $250,000 (USD) or as low as $29,000 (USD) it's quite the gap
Ive personally never seen it as low as 29k but I guess it just depends.. as an assistant (start level) you can make around 50-70k but once you work into your APIs you can hit anywhere from mid 100k to 250k

Thanks for the comments. The video is not a tutorial. I agree that there is a lot more room for improvement. But I don't agree in your statement that I work hard for a low price.
@@DIYPhil You can earn more money for this job. This is very dangerous. You are NDT. We can't work hard for "nothing"
