Comparison Inspex vs Conventional
Inspex•Low cost
•High speed of work
•Diagnostic of non-piggable pipeline sections
•Diagnostics without stopping the pipleline flow
Conventional methods•High cost of work
•Need for preparatory work
•Stopping product transportation for the duration of inspection
•Significant limitations on applicability
•Risk of smart pig stucking
Case study and Clinet feedback
Report example of 48" gas pipeline
19 - points of inspection
12 points - critical
2 points - supercritical
Verde Generation company feedback:
“… We were impressed with INSPEX technology and our company managed to save 250 000$ for infrastructure construction cost…

Detectable anomalies
1.Stress-deformed states
2.Corrosion and fatigue stresses
3.Defects related to metal loss and metal strength violations
4.Changing the pipeline geometry
5.Unauthorized tie-ins and repair sites
