Welcome to Kiefner and Associates

Kiefner and Associates, Inc. provides unique engineering services to pipeline operators. We focus on helping you to keep your pipeline operating safely and reliably. With a staff of widely-recognized experts in the areas of pipeline materials and the effects of defects on pipeline integrity, we are uniquely qualified to handle your difficult pipeline problems.

Kiefner & Associates, Inc. (KAI) was acquired by ApplusRTD in November of 2011. ApplusRTD is a global leader in non-destructive testing (NDT) and inspections utilizing techniques such as digital radiography, ultrasonic testing, magnetic flux leakage, eddy current, and thermography. We will remain as a separate engineering and consulting company continuing to do business as Kiefner and Associates. The KAI employees and services to which our clients have become accustomed will still be the same with our continued focus of offering timely and useful solutions to complicated pipeline issues. In addition, we believe that the combination of KAI’s engineering expertise and ApplusRTD’s NDT capabilities will be beneficial to our clients in offering thorough asset integrity assessments.
