Our NORM survey services aim to ensure employees and contractors are not exposed to NORM during routine and maintenance activities, or NORM surveys are completed to ensure due diligence during commercial acquisitions. A NORM survey is a systematic assessment conducted to identify and measure the levels of naturally occurring radioactive substances in various environments, such as industrial facilities, oil and gas operations, and mining sites.
Site Assessment: Conducting a comprehensive assessment of the site to identify potential sources of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials. This involves examining geological characteristics, industrial processes, and historical data.
Radiation Measurements: Utilizing specialized equipment to measure and quantify radiation levels at different locations. This includes assessing gamma radiation, alpha radiation, and beta radiation to identify the presence and concentration of NORM.
Sample Collection and Analysis: Collecting samples of materials such as soil, water, sediments, and equipment for laboratory analysis. This helps determine the specific radionuclides present and their concentrations, contributing to a detailed understanding of the NORM content.
Documentation and Reporting: Maintaining detailed documentation of survey procedures, measurement results, sample analyses, and other relevant information. Providing comprehensive reports to clients, regulatory authorities, and other stakeholders.
Mitigation Strategies: Recommending and implementing mitigation strategies to minimize potential risks associated with NORM. This may include implementing controls, monitoring procedures, and worker protection measures.
Training and Awareness: Providing training to personnel on NORM awareness, safe work practices, and emergency response procedures. Enhancing the overall safety culture within the workplace.
