Making an impact
当涉及到管道完整性决策时,预测模型是其核心. These models help us answer important questions like, when and where should we conduct an 完整性 dig on one of our pipelines?
预防性维护活动对于保证我们的资产安全至关重要. 这项工作通常需要动员一个团队到现场进行完整性挖掘, 揭示可能存在腐蚀特征的管道部分,并检查这些特征以收集数据.
While this work is critically important, it can be costly and has environmental impacts, 特别是如果挖掘显示不需要额外的维护. 但, 如果有一种方法可以更准确地预测管道的状况,而不必进行这么多的挖掘,那该怎么办? And, that’s where the P Square Model comes in.
The model provides a more accurate representation of corrosion features in pipelines; allowing operators to make better decisions for preventative maintenance, 完整性 digs and other pipeline 完整性 activities.
“Improving safety is about doing the right work, not more work,” says Shahani.
“这既有经济效益,也有环境效益,既能防止不必要的地面干扰,又能提高维修工作的效率。.”
