Pipeline Integrity
Pipelines are continually exposed to potentially damaging forces, from the mediums they transport to operating conditions and the surrounding environment. Ensuring their integrity is the primary driver for safe and reliable operations. DNV’s highly skilled and experienced team of materials scientists, engineers, and NACE-certified technicians helps our customers identify and mitigate potential threats, understand the mechanics of failures, and measure remaining life or time-to-failure of their assets. Our Calgary and Columbus offices provide a broad spectrum of pipeline integrity services including corrosion growth assessments, environmental and fatigue crack growth assessments, pipeline defect (e.g. dents, cracks) assessments, feature analysis, ILI tool data assessment, geohazards and hydrotechnical hazards assessments and pipeline fitness for service assessments through advanced finite element (FE) analysis. We can also assemble multidisciplinary teams from a global pool of experts within the broader DNV organization, if needed.
We’re a single go-to source for integrity services that optimize the safety and reliability of your pipeline throughout its entire life cycle. We can integrate numerical modeling and full-scale testing to tackle your pipeline integrity challenges.
We guide our customers through the process, eliminating extraneous steps to ensure they receive the most accurate data and in the most efficient manner. Due to our extensive data generation, we are able to discern trends and insights that not every lab can identify. This capability, combined with the experience of industry-recognized experts, allows us to tailor testing programs precisely to our customers’ requirements, avoiding a matrix of tests that do not yield valuable information. We are committed to providing solutions that genuinely serve our customers’ best interests.
Now is the time to take action and future proof your assets through technical and feasibility assessments. Our services include:
