Group Description
Welcome to [NDT Inspection Portal]’s phased array ultrasonics (PAUT) group, a place for professionals to connect and discuss the latest techniques and technologies in phased array ultrasonic inspection. PAUT is a non-destructive testing method that uses a phased array ultrasonic probe to inspect the condition of components such as pipelines, tanks, and pressure vessels. The probe consists of a number of individual ultrasonic elements that can be activated independently, allowing the direction and focus of the ultrasonic waves to be controlled in real-time. Our member group offers a platform for sharing knowledge and best practices on PAUT and its applications in various industries. Join our community of experts from around the world and be a part of the conversation on advancing the practice of phased array ultrasonic inspection.

As there was only 1mm remaining wall, HydroForm would not detect the same and it would look like a just signal loss due to poor surface.
To be sure that pitting would be detected and sized with Phased Array, I scanned with Dual Linear Array and this is what it looked like:
