(Perth) Intertek, a leading provider of quality testing, inspection and safety services to a wide range of industries around the world, presents its expanding range of liquefied natural gas (LNG) testing and inspection services as an exhibitor during the 6th Annual LNG World Conference in Perth, Australia, September 5-7, 2011.

Intertek provides critical technical solutions for global suppliers and buyers in the LNG industry, particularly in Asia Pacific, where major LNG expansion and development projects are underway.

Stuart Roberts, Country Manager for Australia said,”Intertek will demonstrate extensive LNG testing and inspection capabilities at the conference, helping provide traders in the LNG industry with complete quality and safety solutions, helping them migrate risk, and gain faster access to individual markets.”

Intertek has been providing liquefied natural gas services for the LNG FOB spot market for over 15 years. As the LNG market moves towards less rigorous marketing agreements, independent inspection checks and certification by Intertek have become more important to LNG buyers and sellers to ensure quality, quantity and safety prior to any trading activity.

Intertek inspectors provide comprehensive services such as LNG Tank Calibration, Custody Transfer Measurement including Reporting of Energy Calculations, vessel measurement, sampling and witnessing of LNG loading as well as thermal energy calculations, in accordance with client sales and purchase agreements.

Intertek technical services extend to LNG process and production, including engineering support, corrosion control, chemical and physical properties testing, vendor inspection processes, verification of measurement, project reporting, HSE training and complex engineering consultation on pipeline corrosion.

LNG and other petroleum and oil & gas services are available throughout Australia and the world. For further information, speak with our experts at the booth in 6th LNG World Conference.
