Smart Skins, a NASA Quadcopter, Remotely Piloted Vehicles, Fibre Optic Sensors all to feature at the 6th Annual Pipe Tech Summit 2015
LONDON, April 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
There is a great deal of external pressure to improve pipeline monitoring and inspection processes following a number of recent high profile incidents. It is essential to ensure your investments in technology, equipment and processes will help you move towards a predictive and proactive leak detection strategy. But within a period of acute cost reduction it has been made all the more difficult. This is where the 6th Annual Pipe Tech Americas Summit can help…
The Pipe Tech Americas Summit 2015 is introducing an innovation-led Technology Showcase
Free for all registered delegates, these interactive demonstrations of the industry's leading inspection and monitoring innovations will provide that exclusive glimpse into the future. Many of these technologies are firsts for the industry and others will only be made commercially available in late 2015. Book now to attend.
Plus, if you book before Friday 17th April you can book your place for only $1095, a saving of $400.
Technologies that will feature at the Pipe Tech Americas Summit:
Smart Skin
Sensors that wirelessly transmit information on the integrity of a pipeline, incorporated within Smart Skin™, a "smart membrane" wrapped around the pipe line, capable of detecting a leak in progress.
NASA
Live onsite demonstration of the quadcopter prototype incorporating adapted Mars Rover laser-based technology for pipeline inspection and leak detection using sensors.
HIFI Engineering Fibre Optic
Fiber optic sensing technologies used to monitor gas and fluid flow in pipelines for early leak detection. Their turn-key fiber optic sensing platforms provide extremely high quality measurements, using robust, simple to operate sensors and software.
Honeybee
Tethered robot incorporating drivetrain technology, used to enter a surface-level vent pipe, navigating dozens of feet and around 90-degree elbows in the vent pipe to inspect the pipe while obtaining video data.
Ventus Geospatial
Ventus Geospatial's Remotely Piloted Vehicles (RPV) with Geography Information Systems (GIS) technology, allows facility inspection, spill scene live video and pipeline monitoring.
Synodon's realSens™
Synodon's realSens™ camera provides an unprecedented insight into underground leaks, including pinhole leaks that often go undetected for a period of time.
Inuktun
Versatrax crawler robotic vehicles for pipe inspection, capable of operating in the toughest of environments.
The entire summit has been designed to help operators ensure the security, integrity and operational excellence of their pipe line; download the Summit PDF for details on all the speakers, sessions, workshops and networking opportunities.
About the 6th Annual Pipe Tech Americas Summit
The 6th Annual Pipe Tech Americas has been designed to bring together key industry experts who will share their strategies for improving safety, discuss how to respond to the emerging regulatory landscape and examine best practices and technologies for successful integrity management, in-line inspections and leak detection. It is an ideal forum in which to demonstrate how stakeholders can take actions to manage opposition to construction projects and also optimize safety to restore public confidence, promote reliability, and maximize profitability of pipelines.
The 6th Annual Pipe Tech Americas Summit takes place in San Antonio, Texas from April 22nd - 23rd. To find out more and book delegate places visit http://www.pipetechamericas.com . Additional sponsorship opportunities are available by calling Lawrence Rosenberg on +44(0)20-7202-7534.
