Pipelines are the safest, most efficient and widely used mode of transporting hydrocarbons. The safety and integrity of hydrocarbon pipelines is paramount as structural damages, leaks or accidents can be costly, both from an environment and human life perspective, but also from an operational perspective due to pipeline outages. Regular monitoring and maintenance increase the longevity of the pipeline while reducing risks. Pipeline operators spend significant resources to ensure the smooth and efficient operations of the network.
