…Turnkey ILI of a gas storage pipeline
We appreciate to share our knowledge and our experience with customers and business partners. Every pipeline inspection project presents new challenges and requires an adapted approach as well as individual technical solutions.
We have compiled this treasure trove of first-hand practical experience for you as a case study. There we describe our concept, our performance and the result of our ILI projects.
Pipeline Description: The pipeline is a 10” field pipeline connecting an operational site to a cavern at a gas storage facility in northern Germany. It had never been inspected before, featured a heavy wall thickness, and was temporarily decommissioned for inspection. Why is it challenging? ▪ No Prior Data: The pipeline had never been inspected before, leaving no historical data for reference. ▪ Pipeline Characteristics: The heavy wall thickness required specialized ultrasonic tools for accurate measurements. ▪ Logistical Complexity: Temporary decommissioning and operational takeover added to the complexity of the project. ▪ Tight Schedule: Completing such a
comprehensive project within one working week demanded precision and efficiency. Target of the inspection: The primary goal was to assess the pipeline’s integrity and operational safety, identify potential metal loss, and establish a reliable baseline condition. Additionally, precise geographic mapping of welds and anomalies was targeted for better future monitoring and maintenance planning.
