Menu 1st March 2012 saw two UKAS assessors at the EffecTech laboratory in Doha, Qatar. The assessors were auditing the laboratory against the requirements of ISO 17025 for testing and calibration.
Following clearance of a few improvement actions, UKAS will recommend the laboratory to be accredited to the standard. This will allow high quality calibration gases to be sourced from within the State of Qatar for the substantial and ever expanding gas processing plants in the country.
AccreditationsReturn to the ISO 17025 Success for EffecTech’s Qatar Laboratory page
EffecTech’s laboratory is accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) for both composition and physical properties of natural gas. EffecTech holds UKAS ISO 17025 accreditation both as a calibration and testing laboratory.
As a calibration laboratory we have to demonstrate the highest levels of accuracy and traceability in our measurements and be able to defend the levels of uncertainty claimed on our certificates. This depth of understanding is not required by a routine testing laboratory.
