Headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta Buffalo Inspection Services specializes in technologically advanced Non-Destructive Examination (NDE/NDT) for Western Canada’s primary industries. Buffalo is a technology centric company that embraces continuous improvement; this has resulted in the adoption of the most up to date software, equipment and practices available, to always ensure the faster, better and cheaper option to our customers.

Buffalo will proactively deliver uncompromising quality, reporting and ongoing monitoring in a safe manner on every shot and on every job or we will do the work again at no cost to the client.
With industry-leading personnel across all disciplines of the NDE industry, Buffalo continues to explore and develop new techniques and processes and stay ahead of the technology curve. Over the last several years, the company has revolutionized what is considered standard operating procedure by introducing new and better methods of providing its services, including the development of a new, proprietary report generation system – all designed and programmed in-house. It’s all part of a collaborative culture of innovation fostered at every level in the company. Buffalo is constantly looking for new ways to improve its processes and deliver greater value for its clients.
Retaining the same grassroots values we deem vital to the company’s evolution and growth, we continue to forge ahead as a viable and trusted enterprise within the Oil & Gas Industry.
