North Sea oil has become such a household word that it is difficult to remember how short a time this exploitation has been taking place. The role of testing has been fundamental to the development of this technology and without such testing, the integrity of these offshore platforms would not have attained the very high level of safety and reliability enjoyed by the industry today. This paper describes examples of how engineering integrity is achieved through testing.
