Pipeline Integrity Management Solutions
Pipeline systems face various challenges throughout their lifecycle, including theft, excavation activity, geohazards, and internal corrosion. These threats can lead to significant financial, environmental, and reputational damages. Schlumberger's pipeline integrity solutions offer a comprehensive approach to prevent both intentional and accidental damage. These solutions also facilitate leak detection, particularly in high-consequence zones, such as populated areas and environmentally sensitive regions, ensuring regulatory compliance.
Actionable Insights for Proactive Protection
Schlumberger's pipeline integrity solutions empower operators to convert acquired data into actionable insights, enabling a shift from reactive to proactive maintenance strategies. By integrating historical and real-time data, operators can identify and address threats that pose risks to pipeline operations. Utilizing contextualized data allows for better risk assessment, prioritization of actions, and timely intervention to mitigate challenges.
Advanced Fiber-Optic Solutions
Schlumberger's Optiq™ fiber-optic solutions offer precise leak detection, pig tracking, and geohazard assessments. These solutions safeguard pipelines from intrusions and provide computational tools for detecting leaks, ensuring flow assurance, and monitoring corrosion in single-phase or multiphase fluid pipelines. The real-time monitoring capabilities and pinpoint accuracy of Schlumberger's pipeline integrity systems contribute to safeguarding operational licenses, optimizing resources, and maximizing asset uptime.
Innovative Vibroacoustic Monitoring System
The e-vpms® Eni vibroacoustic pipeline monitoring system, developed by Eni, offers continuous real-time monitoring for oil and gas pipelines. This solution is particularly valuable in areas where fiber-optic infrastructure is limited. Multiple sensors deployed at discrete intervals along the pipeline enable leak and theft detection, pig tracking, earthquake monitoring, and testing for hydrostatic and pneumatic conditions.
Comprehensive Pipeline Chemicals and Services
Schlumberger provides a wide range of specialty chemicals and services for pipelines, including corrosion mitigation chemicals for suspension or abandonment scenarios, pipeline cleaning and drying chemicals, tracer dyes, chemicals for hydrostatic testing, and additives for flow optimization. Additionally, the company's portfolio includes valves designed to manage fluid flow in flowlines, gathering lines, and transmission systems.
