Piping Inspections

Industrial Piping Moves Crucial Materials

Piping accounts for roughly 40% of “accidental releases” at major petroleum facilities. Building cost effective programs that encompass varieties of damage mechanisms across thousands of feet of pipe challenges plant maintenance and inspection teams. Gecko is equipped to address the biggest challenges in pipeline integrity. By entering pipe-racks and maneuvering around obstacles, our robots are able to navigate sections in a fraction of the time, labor, and cost of conventional inspections. Full-coverage Gecko corrosion maps provide the data to identify exactly where a replacement is required, where repairs will be sufficient, and where to focus future monitoring efforts.

Interruptions in production and unplanned releases are costly at best and catastrophic at worst. Gecko can provide the data and the access to reduce the unknowns in piping integrity management.
