A weighted asset health ranking method helps pipeline operators prioritize inspections, maintenance and refurbishment by combining equipment condition, operating exposure and maintenance history into a fleet-wide decision framework.
Nonintrusive acoustic monitoring is enabling earlier detection of debris, cavitation and seal degradation, helping pipeline operators improve reliability and prevent costly pump failures.
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.
(P&GJ) — Pipelines can accumulate deposits and debris, with fouling influenced by fluid composition, contaminants like hydrogen sulfide and heavy metals, and operating conditions such as temperature, pressure, and flow.
Dry gas flows can unpredictably become wet, and accidental liquids in gas transmission networks create hidden financial costs and pose serious safety risks.
The Charlotte-based Piedmont Natural Gas utility field representative is a serial hero, having performed three life-changing heroic acts in 2023.
PipeSense, installed three of its advanced systems across the U.S. in support of EnControl, a third-party control room company to the oil, gas and hydrogen industries.
Pipelines play an integral part in modern industry. They help transport essential resources like water, oil, and gas across vast distances, ensuring facilities stay functional and operational.
As the global demand for energy grows, so too does the need to transition toward sustainable energy sources. For many process manufacturers, carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) is a central part of their efforts to reduce emissions of one of the most prevalent greenhouse gases (GHGs), carbon dioxide (CO2).
Risk models are prominent pipeline integrity management (PIM) tools used to make data-driven decisions. As computing power has increased and data acquisition methods have proliferated, risk models have become more complex.
Creating an innovation platform requires an environment that encourages rapid adoption of industrial changes and an innovative mindset that never mistakes activity for progress.
The pursuit of building a better mousetrap can often pay off in big ways in terms of efficiencies. Such a productivity payout was the goal for finding a better solution for coating pipeline girth welds in the field – a solution that would speed up the coating process per weld.
You probably don’t see pipelines in your daily life, but your standard of living certainly relies on them. Most days, they provide long-distance transportation routes for liquids and gases, usually from wells and refineries to market areas where consumers need them.
Risk models are prominent pipeline integrity management (PIM) tools used to make data-driven decisions. As computing power has increased and data acquisition methods have proliferated, risk models have become more complex.
T.D. Williamson’s innovative recovery tool and SmartPlug technology successfully resolved a stalled pig issue in an offshore pipeline, restoring normal operations and avoiding costly disruptions.
