Why perform in line inspections?

In Line Inspection (ILI) comprehends the assessment of pipelines through nondestructive techniques and tools in order to detect and measure inner damage. IL Inspection enables to issue reports about irregularities in pipelines, including corrosion, cracks, deformations or other defects. IL Inspections are commonly performed in the Oil&Gas Industry, especially in long stretches of pipelines. Information gathered from ILI is vital for asset management. GIE Group guarantees reliability throughout the ILI analysis, from the design of the solution to the analysis of data

BENEFITS

Information from in-line-inspections is vital to manage integrity in your pipelines. Good management of the data-gathering process and an adequate use of the information will enable to:

» Act and manage integrity in accordance with regulations applicable to the case (NAG 100 – RES 120E – DS 081 - 49 CFR Part 192 y 195)

» Apply the best practices to manage integrity (NACE SP0102 - API 1163 - ASME B31.8S API 1160)

» Identify acting hazards and establish mitigation plans

» Use the information to enrichen GIS.

» Compare data-gathering and establish corrosion speed

» Perform studies of Probability of Exceedance (POE) as input for quantitative risk management
