Inspection Services for Mining in Angola
Mining assets fail through wear, impact and fatigue rather than process corrosion alone, so inspection focuses on structures, wear plates and lifting equipment.
Overview
Crushers, conveyors, chutes, hoppers and support structures accumulate cracking and wall loss under continuous load. Openmar carries out weld and structural examination, thickness surveys on wear-critical sections, and thorough examination of the lifting equipment used in maintenance.
Findings are reported with criticality so maintenance planners can bundle repairs into existing stoppages.
Typical Inspection Challenges
- Fatigue cracking on structures and support frames
- Wear and wall loss on chutes, hoppers and pipework
- Lifting equipment condition in harsh, dusty environments
- Limited stoppage windows for inspection access
- Remote sites requiring self-sufficient mobilisation
Applications
- Crusher and conveyor structural inspection
- Chute, hopper and wear-plate thickness surveys
- Welds and castings NDT (MT, PT, UT)
- Maintenance lifting equipment examination
- Crane and hoist certification
- Structural integrity assessment
Standards & Compliance
- ASTM E709 / E165 MT and PT practice
- ISO 17640 ultrasonic weld testing
- ISO 4309 wire rope and lifting gear
- ISO 9001 quality management

How we deliver in Mining
Scope review
We review the asset, access constraints and applicable codes so the inspection plan matches the real risk.
Mobilisation
Qualified personnel, procedures and equipment are structured and coordinated from Luanda and deployed to site on schedule.
Execution
Inspection is carried out to written procedures with traceable readings, photographs and quality checks.
Reporting
Technical reports are issued with findings, acceptance assessment and recommendations for the next action.
Why Openmar
- Angolan company operating locally, with local content and mobilisation from Luanda
- Written procedures and qualified personnel for every method deployed
- Multi-discipline teams that reduce mobilisations and time on site
- Traceable reporting that supports repair decisions and regulatory files
- ISO 9001 quality management, ANPG registration and HSE documentation available for pre-qualification
Angola Coverage
Openmar mobilises from Luanda to onshore facilities, yards, terminals and offshore installations across Angola, including Cabinda, Soyo and offshore blocks. Teams, procedures and equipment are prepared before mobilisation so work starts on arrival.
