Rope Access & Inspection
Technical inspection performed with both traditional and rope access. Precision and safety - regardless of access conditions.
Inspection of complex structures and hard-to-reach areas
Cetec Energy performs inspections using both traditional access methods and rope access where these are inappropriate or ineffective. Our certified technicians work safely and accurately on tall, complex and difficult-to-access structures across the energy sector - both onshore and offshore.
We ensure efficient inspections with minimal impact on daily operations by combining flexible access methods with solid technical experience to customise inspection work to the specific installation and operating environment.
Non-destructive testing
Non-destructive testing is used to assess materials, joints and components without damaging them. The methods provide a precise insight into quality, integrity and potential defects - during production, installation and as part of ongoing operation and maintenance. NDT creates a safe and documented basis for engineering decisions and contributes to extended lifetime and stable operation.

- Magnetic Particle Test (MT)
- Penetrant Test (PT)
- Eddy current test
- Ultrasound Test (UT)
- Phased Array Test (PAUT)
- Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD)
Rope Access
Rope access is used for tasks on high, complex and inaccessible structures where access and the working environment place special demands. The method allows for safe and controlled execution in situations where efficiency, precision and correct execution are crucial. Rope access is widely used across the energy sector and is a well-established approach to working in demanding environments.
IRATA cetified
Cetec Energy has at its disposal IRATA certified rope access technicians, which operates according to international standards for safety, quality and labour discipline. The certification ensures that the work is carried out in a controlled, correct manner and with a high focus on both safety and professionalism.
Our teams are made up of technicians at multiple IRATA levels, making it possible to assemble the right staffing for each job:
IRATA Level 1 & 2
IRATA Level 1
Performs practical tasks under direct supervision. Level 1 technicians specialise in safe rope work and the correct use of equipment and procedures.
IRATA Level 2
Have increased experience and responsibility and can perform more complex tasks. Level 2 technicians actively contribute to planning, risk assessment and ensure proper setup of rope systems.
IRATA Level 3
IRATA Level 3
Act as a supervisor and have overall responsibility for the safety and performance of the work. Level 3 technicians plan the job, lead the team, conduct risk assessments and ensure all IRATA procedures are followed.
Inspection is a crucial part of our customers' operational reliability. By combining inspection with traditional access and rope access, we can customise the effort to the specific installation and the actual conditions on site.
An accurate picture gives our customers a better basis for decision-making, fewer surprises and the ability to act in time. This helps ensure stable operations, planned maintenance and more efficient utilisation of their assets.

Yaw Ring repair
The challenge
Damaged teeth on a slewing ring can quickly put a wind turbine out of action. Even minor damage leads to misalignment, increased stress on the drive system and, in the worst case, a complete shutdown. The common solution is to replace the entire slewing ring - a process that requires the use of a crane, longer downtime and significant spare parts costs.
The alternative
At Cetec Energy, we approach the problem differently. Our teams perform precision repairs up in the tower. With a specialised and proven swing ring repair procedure, the welding work is done up in the tower and the damaged teeth are rebuilt and restored without dismantling the nacelle.
The result
This method brings the workshop into the wind turbine. It's faster, far more cost-effective and extends the life of critical components. For operators, this means reduced downtime, controlled costs and turbines that are back in production within days - not weeks.
Fully Integrated process for welding and non-destructive testing
Combining welding services with non-destructive testing (NDT) ensures both correct execution and documented quality in the same workflow. This allows for quick verification of welds and a more efficient process from repair to approval. The result is higher quality, shorter downtime and from a one-stop-shop supplier
