Kvalitetssikring – Nocmarine Offshore Industrial Services ApS

Quality begins with the contract review

NOC Marine treats quality as a management discipline rather than a final inspection activity.

Before engineering or fabrication begins, we identify applicable standards, project specifications, acceptance criteria, hold and witness points, documentation obligations and responsibilities. These requirements are converted into a practical quality setup that the people carrying out the work can understand and follow.

The complexity of that setup is proportionate to the risk and scope. A straightforward fabricated support does not need the same control regime as offshore secondary steel or work for a regulated production facility. Our task is to apply the necessary level of control without creating paperwork that is disconnected from the product.

QA/QC throughout fabrication

For production in Lithuania, NOC Marine coordinates quality directly with the selected supplier. Activities may include review of quality plans and inspection and test plans, verification of material certificates, identification and traceability, welding procedure and welder qualification review, dimensional inspections, visual welding inspection, NDT coordination, coating inspection and systematic handling of non-conformities.

Quality information is gathered as production progresses. This allows gaps or inconsistencies to be corrected while the relevant material, personnel and process information is still available. It also gives project management a more reliable view of actual completion: a component is not considered complete merely because fabrication has ended; the required inspections, records and release activities must also be in place.

Quality Assurance

Welding control

Welded structures are managed against the applicable execution standard, customer specification and drawing requirements. The quality plan defines how procedures, qualifications, consumables, joint preparation, preheat or interpass controls, inspection and acceptance criteria are handled. NOC Marine coordinates technical clarification where drawings and fabrication conditions do not align, preventing workshop improvisation from becoming an undocumented design change.

Coating and corrosion protection

Coating performance depends on far more than the final dry-film thickness. Surface preparation, environmental conditions, stripe coating, application intervals, repairs and inspection records all contribute to the result. NOC Marine can coordinate review of the specified coating system, monitor surface preparation and application, verify inspection results and compile coating documentation. For marine and offshore deliveries, this control is an essential part of lifecycle performance.

Documentation and handover

The final manufacturing documentation is defined at project start and built continuously. Depending on the scope, it may include material certificates, traceability records, welding documentation, NDT reports, dimensional reports, coating records, calibration evidence, deviation records, inspection releases and as-built information. Documents are reviewed for completeness and consistency before handover, reducing the risk of a physically complete delivery being delayed by an incomplete dossier.

The handover package may include

Material certificates
Traceability records
Welding documentation
NDT reports
Dimensional reports
Coating records
Calibration certificates
Non-conformance records
Inspection releases
As-built documentation
