Analyze pipelines for strain caused by unstable ground
It’s no secret that pipelines are critical infrastructure for many industries. Due to more frequent extreme weather events, pipelines that cross unstable ground can bend and deform under the effect of a landslide. This could release the pipeline’s transported product transported into the environment.
The inertial mapping surveys that provide the raw data for bending strains are just part of the story. You need robust analysis of that data to determine what level of strain is normal and what is cause for concern.
Active Strain Analytics optimizes that analysis to give owners and operators the full picture. Not just a snapshot.
The Active Strain Analytics Advantage
We combine inertial mapping survey data with a complete analysis to better recognize the strain signatures of landslide hazards on pipeline infrastructure.Recognizing the problem
We utilized Active Strain Analytics to help one of our pipeline clients create a 1.6-mile (2.5-kilometre) above-ground bypass of their pipeline. We looked at the mapping survey data and, after seeing bending and strain signatures, recommended the bypass. Active Strain Analytics helped make the pipeline safer and contributed to uninterrupted service.James Ferguson, Manager, Integrity Business Development/Technology
