Pipeline Integrity

Anomaly response, pressure and repair decisions on the clock

Agents ingest the inline inspection report, classify each feature, calculate remaining strength and model the response options against your integrity rules. The Integrity Manager makes the call. Every decision, with its lineage, stays on the record.

What this pack does

From inspection finding to repair decision, with the clock in view.

An inline inspection run reports thousands of features. Each one has to be aligned to the pipe, matched to prior runs, assessed for remaining strength and classified against the response criteria, all inside the discovery clock. When an immediate condition appears, the interim pressure decision cuts line capacity, and the cost of holding the conservative position runs into millions.

The Pipeline Integrity Decision Pack runs that work in mDecide. Agents ingest the ILI report, calculate remaining strength, classify the feature and model the response options with their capacity and USD impact. The Integrity Manager reviews the options and the criteria applied and decides, with executive approval added above the exposure threshold. The setpoint instruction, dig work order, capacity notice and regulator notification follow from the decision.

How a decision gets made

1

Sense. The ILI report is ingested, features aligned to mileposts and girth welds, the discovery clock checked.

2

Analyze. Remaining strength calculated, the feature classified, response options modeled with capacity and USD impact.

3

Decide. The Integrity Manager decides, with VP Operations above the exposure threshold.

4

Act. Setpoint instruction to the control center, dig work order, capacity notice, regulator notification.

5

Learn. Field measurement compared to the ILI call, corrosion growth rate updated.

Ask it in plain language

Connected to Amazon Quick for Energy

Everything the pack produces can be asked about in plain language, with the same answer the decision maker saw.

“Which immediate conditions are open, and how long is left on each clock?”“Compare the response options for F-2217 in capacity and USD.”“How did we resolve the last immediate condition, and did the Authority accept it?”

Who it serves

Built for the integrity team and everyone the decision touches.

A pressure decision on a trunkline reaches the control room, the dig crews, the compliance lead and the shipper. The pack keeps them on one record, and links the resulting curtailment to the Gas Aggregator pack when both run together.

Integrity Manager

Options, criteria and precedent in one view, with the deadline and exposure on top.

Integrity engineers

Remaining strength and classification with every step traceable to its source.

Control center and field operations

Setpoint instructions and dig work orders issued from the decision itself.

Regulatory compliance

Discovery, one-year and restriction clocks tracked, notifications drafted.

Getting started

In production in 6 to 9 weeks.

Weeks 1–2

Scope the decisions

Working sessions with your integrity team to map the response criteria, integrity management plan, data sources and approval chain.
