GEO tool detects mitered bends

 Pipeline Description:

Product pipelines, diameters 6” to 12”, 12 km long, connecting refinery and tank farm at the harbor. The pipelines pass through a natural reserve. Since adjacent pipelines from another operator had experienced leaks in the natural reserve, the inspection was urgent. 

Why is it challenging?

There are mitered bends present in angles up to approx. 50°. Numbers per line and locations were not known. 

Target of the inspection:

Perform a high resolution MFL inspection.
