New Single-Fiber Two-Way Monitoring System for Oil Pipelines
SLB's pipeline integrity monitoring systems—part of the Optiq™ fiber-optic solutions family—enable pipeline operators to perform accurate leak detection and pig tracking while protecting pipelines from third-party intrusions and detecting ground movements, such as. Department of Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) has developed a new type of distributed optical fiber sensor that can measure multiple parameters at once, including temperature. FEBUS Optics offers a complete solution for oil and gas pipeline monitoring to: detect any risks caused by natural events. Traditional sensing approaches are often limited in coverage and are susceptible to electromagnetic interference, which creates difficulties in long-term deployment.
