In the intricate world of pipeline infrastructure, the vitality of consistent and precise inspections cannot be overstated. Municipalities, asset managers, and pipeline owners & operators are the stewards of these critical veins of modern civilization, which are...
Remote field phenomenon was first discovered experimentally by W.R. MacLean in 1951. MacLean’s device consisted of axially oriented exciter and detector coils that are spaced apart by several pipe diameters inside a metallic pipe. A basic RFT setup including exciter...
This article, which is based on a technical paper that will be presented at the UESI Pipelines 2024 Conference “Utility Infrastructure: Moving Onward to a Sustainable Future” on July 27-July 31st in Calgary, AB, details a project with Jasper municipality...
In an era where industrialization is accelerating, the infrastructure that forms the backbone of our daily existence faces the inevitable reality of aging. Notably, pipelines stand as a critical component, integral to the consistent delivery of vital utilities such as...
The paper discusses the growing importance of Remote Field Technology (RFT) in the in-line inspection of pipelines, particularly in scenarios where traditional magnetic flux leakage (MFL) tools face challenges. Over the past decade, RFT has emerged as a valuable...
Across municipalities and industrial landscapes, the intricate web of pipeline infrastructure that underpins modern existence is reaching a critical stage in its lifecycle. The looming threat is not just the inevitable decay of materials, but the consequential risks...
