Monitoring and Industrial Technology
Modern energy and industrial facilities require accurate operational data, early fault detection, and improved visibility into asset condition. IPS supports monitoring and communication technologies designed to help operators identify abnormal conditions, improve operational awareness, and support maintenance planning.
Equipment and Condition Monitoring
Monitoring solutions may be applied to rotating equipment, process systems, tanks, pipelines, utilities, and other critical assets.
Applications may include:
- Equipment condition monitoring
- Vibration monitoring
- Temperature and pressure monitoring
- Performance monitoring
- Operational data collection
- Equipment status monitoring
- Alarm and event monitoring
- Preventive and predictive maintenance support
- Remote equipment status visibility
Alert threshold exceeded
Abnormal temperature identified
Thermal Monitoring
Thermal monitoring technologies can help identify abnormal temperature conditions and potential equipment or process issues.
Potential applications include:
- Storage tanks
- Pipelines
- Electrical systems
- Rotating equipment
- Process units
- Terminals and loading facilities
- Industrial production assets
Thermal data can support operational decision-making, inspection planning, asset integrity programs, and early identification of conditions requiring further investigation.
Leak Detection
Leak detection is an important component of environmental protection, operational safety, product conservation, and asset integrity.
IPS supports leak detection solutions for applications that may include:
- Pipelines
- Storage tanks
- Process equipment
- Transfer systems
- Loading and unloading facilities
- Industrial fluid-handling systems
Solutions can be evaluated according to the fluid service, operating conditions, system configuration, detection requirements, and integration with existing monitoring or control systems.
Leak located
Detection Technologies
Acoustic Monitoring
Detects leaks by analyzing the acoustic signals generated by escaping fluids, using sensors placed along the pipeline or aerial surveys.
Fiber Optic Sensors
Uses fiber optic cables to detect subtle temperature changes, pressure variations, or acoustic signals that may indicate a leak.
Computational Pipeline Monitoring (CPM)
Uses mathematical models and real-time flow, pressure, and temperature data to detect anomalies and potential leaks.
Industrial Communication and Connected Systems
Industrial communication systems help connect field devices, equipment, control platforms, maintenance teams, and remote operating locations.
IPS can support technology requirements involving:
- Industrial communication systems
- Equipment data transmission
- Remote monitoring
- Operational reporting
- Data acquisition
- Alarm communication
- System connectivity
- Integration support for monitoring applications
The appropriate solution depends on the facility architecture, communication requirements, operating environment, cybersecurity considerations, and existing control systems.
