Non-contact diagnostics technology and early detection of critical conditions of underground pipelines allow for diagnostics of steel tanks, pipelines and stressed metal structures (including welds) of various types.
Transition from single-time diagnostics to intermittent monitoring of technical condition and collection of statistical data on defects.
Electronic mapping of defect positions with their accurate georeferencing in terms of GPS/Glonass coordinates.

Advantages
Simplicity of pipeline diagnostic technique
from the earth’s surface
from the earth’s surface
Low cost of works
High reliability of defects detection - up to 75-85 %
High accuracy of defect position - from 0.1 to 0.5 m
High productivity - up to 15 km/day moving on foot and up to 70 km/day on carriers (means of transport, quadrocopters)
Special expert mathematical methods of processing help identify defect types
APPLICATION
- At pipelines unaccessible for smart pigging
- At pipelines in districts of high seismic activity and challenging geological conditions
- At sections of field pipelines of high risk categories belonging to a “very high” category with the number of bursts exceeding 0.1 pcs/km/year
- For express diagnostics and early detection of critical conditions of underground pipelines
- At new pipelines for assessment of technical condition of welds before commissioning
- For the search of unauthorized tie-ins
