Intelligent energy storage cabinet 48V used for oil pipeline monitoring

Intelligent energy storage cabinet 48V used for oil pipeline monitoring

Engineered to support critical infrastructure, the RAFT integrates a high-performance solar array with intelligent power and control systems, housed in a thermally insulated cabinet built from 316L stainless steel. Their modular design enables scalable 48V/72V configurations, supporting continuous operation of sensors, telemetry, and communication gear. 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 earthquakes and subsidence. Such architecture assists decision-making, driven by data and based on intelligent analytics. This report delves into the implementation of IoT solutions for pipeline monitoring, focusing on a detailed case study that illustrates the successful deployment of these technologies for real-time pipeline monitoring and leak detection.

Pipeline and Fiber Optic Cable Detection Technology

Pipeline and Fiber Optic Cable Detection Technology

Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) technologies, Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) and Distributed Temperature & Strain Sensing (DTSS) provide pipeline operators with a monitoring solution to reduce downtimes, enhance safety, achieve regulatory compliance, and protect. DNV is a leader in verifying distributed fibre-optic sensing (DFOS) systems for pipeline leak detection. Fiber sensing technology leverages the unique properties of optical fibers in order to detect changes in temperature, strain, and acoustic vibration (sound) along the length of a fiber, turning optical fibers into long-reaching distributed fiber sensors. FOPipe: FEBUS Optics' pipeline monitoring solution FOPipe is FEBUS Optics' comprehensive and easy to implement solution for ensuring continuous real-time monitoring of pipeline integrity, whether onshore or offshore.
