NORM/TENORM

NORM/TENORM MONITORING

MMTC Asia provides professional monitoring services to ensure the safety of workers, the public, and the environment: Radiation monitoring for radioactive sources and equipment NORM/TENORM assessment and management Risk identification and mitigation strategies. Our monitoring services support long‑term compliance and responsible radiation management.

Protect Your Workforce. Ensure Regulatory Compliance. Manage Radiation Risks with Confidence.

MMTC Asia provides comprehensive NORM/TENORM monitoring, radiation assessment, training, and consultancy services to help organizations identify, evaluate, and manage Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM) and Technologically Enhanced Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (TENORM) safely and in compliance with Malaysian regulations. Our services support upstream, midstream, downstream, refinery, petrochemical, mining, and industrial operations.

Understanding the Hidden Radiation Risk

NORM occurs naturally in the earth’s crust and is commonly present in oil, gas, mining, and industrial operations. During production processes, these radioactive materials can become concentrated, resulting in TENORM.

Without proper monitoring and management, TENORM can:

✅ Expose workers to harmful radiation

✅ Contaminate equipment and facilities

✅ Create environmental liabilities

✅ Delay maintenance and shutdown activities

✅ Lead to regulatory penalties and compliance issues

MMTC Asia helps organizations identify and control these risks through practical monitoring programs and expert radiation safety support.

OUR TENORM SERVICES
