Cloud-driven preventive maintenance of pipeline assets.
CHALLENGE
Oil and gas pipeline integrity breaches can cause serious problems that affect climate and human life. Given the vast and aging pipeline infrastructure, constant surveillance of the pipeline systems using traditional methods like land-based surveillance and aerial sorties is both difficult and expensive. Pipeline operators spend USD 1.6 bn for evaluating, inspecting, and maintaining the integrity of the pipeline systems.
TCS SOLUTION
Satellite imaging is a safe and terrain-independent solution that helps customers with round-the-clock surveillance of their enterprise assets. Not only is this system accurate, convenient, and eco-friendly, but it also reacts proactively to risk throughout the supply chain.
TCS Satellite Image Analyzer, built on a GE Predix Cloud, identifies risks in a pipeline corridor using image analytics and change detection algorithms.
Our solution:
Automatically triggers alerts around enterprise assets, which are facing a problem.
BENEFITS
Provide unmatched visibility and location precision for pipeline consistency
Prevent unnecessary shut-downs to achieve near 100% pipeline utilization
Reduce costs by up to 3000 USD/hour spent on aerial inspection
Allow proactive asset management with a clear view of operations, maintenance, and safety
Decrease cost and time associated with monitoring non-instrumented assets significantly
Provide engineering excellence and accuracy in detecting change
Provide digitized, analyzable, and easy-to-integrate solutions
Offer huge potential for re usability in other areas
