NDT Global Expands Gas Pipeline Inspection Capabilities with ENTEGRA Acquisition
TYLER CAMPBELL, Editor-in-Chief, Pipeline & Gas Journal
In July 2025, NDT Global, a provider of advanced diagnostic inspection and integrity solutions for the energy sector, announced the acquisition of ENTEGRA®, a premium technology company specializing in ultra-high-resolution magnetic flux leakage (UHR MFL) in-line inspection services.
This strategic union brings together two market-leading technology providers, significantly enhancing NDT Global’s service portfolio, strengthening its growing position in the gas pipeline market and reinforcing its continued commitment to delivering the best data-driven insights and high-performance integrity solutions. Together, NDT Global and ENTEGRA® are affirming their stance in redefining the future of pipeline integrity. By harnessing the power of technology, the complementary services will enable safer, more cost-effective pipeline operations, empowering customers with the insights needed to make smarter, faster decisions for their assets.
Broader and More Integrated Technology Offering
One of the most immediate benefits of the acquisition is the creation of a comprehensive suite of inspection technologies. NDT Global has long been recognized for its ultrasonic testing (UT) and acoustic resonance technology (ART) tools. ENTEGRA® brings ultra-high-resolution MFL capabilities, enabling highly detailed detection of corrosion and integrity threats within pipelines. By combining these complementary technologies, pipeline operators have access to more holistic, data-driven inspection and integrity solutions than ever before.
This acquisition also strengthens NDT Global’s presence in the gas pipeline inspection sector, where ENTEGRA® has established a strong reputation for innovation and reliability. ENTEGRA®’s established U.S. footprint expands NDT Global’s reach, especially in North America. Customers in the gas sector now benefit from both companies’ best-in-class technologies and expertise under one roof. With an expanded portfolio, NDT Global is stronger and more competitive against providers with narrower offerings.
The combination of NDT Global, Dynamic Risk and now ENTEGRA® brings together highly complementary technology platforms in UT, ART, UHR MFL and integrity management solutions, creating a unique set of solutions for pipeline operators seeking best-in-class data-driven inspection, diagnostic and integrity services across a diverse asset base.
Leadership from both organizations emphasize that the merger accelerates innovation in next-generation inspection technologies. ENTEGRA®’s entrepreneurial culture and technical experience, combined with NDT Global’s global research and development infrastructure, create a powerful engine for development.
“This is a pivotal moment for NDT Global,” said Martin Thériault, CEO and Chairman of NDT Global. “ENTEGRA®'s entrepreneurial spirit, technical leadership and excellence, and deep market knowledge make them an ideal fit for our joint vision going forward. Working together, we will accelerate the development of next-generation inspection technologies and, in return, deliver an even greater value to customers through enhanced service offerings and global reach.”
The combined entity will benefit from expanded international reach and the ability to deliver joint UT and MFL scopes, axial and now circumferential, to valued clients. This move also supports NDT Global’s and ENTEGRA®’s long-term vision of becoming the most trusted partner in pipeline integrity management.
The transaction was made possible through the continued support of Novacap, the majority shareholder of NDT Global, alongside La Caisse (formerly CDPQ), and NDT Global, as well as ENTEGRA® founders and executives. Before the acquisition, ENTEGRA® was owned by Amberjack Capital Partners as well as a group of co-founders led by Mark Olson, who played a pivotal role in building the company’s reputation for innovation and excellence in the MFL space.
The acquisition of ENTEGRA® represents a strategic integration of complementary technologies and talent that strengthens NDT Global’s ability to deliver pipeline integrity solutions.
