STATS Group has acquired pipeline cleaning and data specialist P2D, expanding its global pipeline integrity and maintenance services platform.

Nonintrusive acoustic monitoring is enabling earlier detection of debris, cavitation and seal degradation, helping pipeline operators improve reliability and prevent costly pump failures.

UptimeAI has launched AI reasoning agents designed to handle root cause analysis, maintenance optimization and hazard assessment for industrial operations.

Uzbekistan will repair leaks across its aging gas transmission system under a new World Bank-backed program aimed at reducing losses, improving energy supply and recovering gas for households and industry.

Atlantic LNG has shut its 3 MMtpy Train 3 unit in Trinidad for emergency repairs following a discovered defect, potentially removing a significant share of the island’s LNG output as markets monitor supply impacts.

Trinidad and Tobago’s Atlantic LNG will take its 6-MMtpy Train 4 offline for up to 50 days this spring for major maintenance, a move expected to reduce cargo availability while other trains remain in operation.

Effective valve maintenance is critical to preventing leaks, reducing downtime and extending asset life across pipeline and industrial systems, especially in harsh and remote operating environments.

Nigeria’s NNPC has contained a leak on the critical Escravos–Lagos gas pipeline following last week’s explosion and has isolated the affected sections, with joint inspections now underway. The 2.2 Bcf/d system is a vital supply corridor for power plants and industrial users across southwest Nigeria.

The deal expands Wood’s LNG portfolio and will create more than 100 local jobs while supporting safe, reliable operations at one of the Gulf Coast’s largest new LNG projects.

BP has restored part of the Olympic Pipeline System after a refined products release east of Everett, Washington, while the affected segment remains shut pending investigation. The 400-mile system supplies gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel across the Pacific Northwest.

A major outage on France’s Rhone gas pipeline will restrict LNG import capacity through the winter, reducing supplies by an estimated 43.5 TWh — about 11 days of national gas demand — as ongoing strikes continue to disrupt terminal operations.

Gas flows rose to 0.9 Bcf/d, signaling full operational return at the 0.8 Bcf/d facility, which supplies LNG under long-term contracts with GAIL and Sumitomo.

ONEOK contained a fire at its MB-4 fractionator in Mont Belvieu, Texas. The blaze was quickly extinguished with no injuries reported, and other plant operations are expected to resume following safety reviews.

Libya’s Waha Oil Company has resumed crude flows through the Zaggut–Sidra pipeline after repairing a leak that caused a brief shutdown. The line transports oil from Waha-operated fields to the Es Sider export terminal, with production now restored to normal levels.

Cameron LNG cut gas intake for short-term maintenance, but the Louisiana export facility said cargoes remain unaffected. U.S. LNG feedgas demand rebounded despite lower flows at Cameron, Sabine Pass, and Freeport.
