Pipeline Management & Monitoring
Control throughput, pressure, and network integrity with alarms and audit-ready reporting
An integrated system to monitor pipeline operations in real time, detect anomalies and potential leaks, manage pigging and inspections, and unify operational events into actionable workflows and compliance packs.
What management cares about
Pipelines are critical assets. Focus areas are safety, service continuity, and risk control.
Why structured pipeline monitoring matters
Pipeline risks go beyond leaks: reduced throughput, pressure anomalies, third-party interference, overdue pigging, and inspection data that is not linked to actions. This system combines monitoring, event management, and governance so decisions are faster and fully documented.
Detect anomalies sooner
Rule and pattern based alarms reduce response time and prevent incident escalation.
Operational events become actions
Every event is logged, assigned, tracked, and closed with evidence and an audit trail.
Inspection history is not just an archive
Findings link to risk scores, repair plans, and follow up monitoring.
Key capabilities
Built for oil, gas, and products pipeline operators that need real-time visibility, incident control, and a strong audit trail.
Real-time Pipeline Monitoring Dashboard
Operational summaries by segment and station: flow, pressure, temperature, throughput, and valve/pump status.
- ✓Overview: optional network map view and segment KPIs
- ✓Trends: flow/pressure profiles with deviation flags
- ✓Station performance: pump, valve, compressor station (optional)
- ✓Daily operations log: shift notes, event notes, attachments
Leak and Anomaly Detection (Operational)
Detect leak indicators or anomalies with rule-based monitoring and response workflows.
- !Alarm rules: pressure drops, imbalances, unexpected flow deviations
- ✓Event classification: suspected leak, instrumentation, operational transients
- ✓Incident workflow: acknowledge, assign, investigate, close with evidence
- ✓Post-incident reporting pack: timeline, actions, approvals
Integrity, Inspection, and Pigging Management
Pigging schedules, inspections, corrosion monitoring, and findings history to maintain asset integrity.
- ✓Pigging plan: schedules, execution logs, findings
- ✓ILI/inspection records: defects, severity, locations, attachments
- ✓Risk scoring (optional): segment risk trends and priority actions
- ✓Corrective action workflows: owners, SLAs, closure evidence
Maintenance Coordination and Work Order Links (Optional)
Operational events can become actionable tickets and can integrate with existing maintenance systems if needed.
- ✓Action tracking: assignments, due dates, escalations
- ✓Permit references and attachments (optional)
- ✓Integration-ready exports or APIs to CMMS/ERP
- ✓Management views: backlog, overdue items, closure rates
Pipeline Management and Monitoring Modules
Modular and enterprise-ready. Start with monitoring and logbooks, then expand into integrity and compliance.
Pipeline Network and Asset Master
Network master data: segments, stations, valves, pumps, meter points, and operational boundaries.
- ✓Segment hierarchies + geo references (optional)
- ✓Operating limits: pressure and flow thresholds
- ✓Criticality classifications
SCADA Tag Mapping and Data Capture
Consistent tag integration for flow/pressure and unified operational event logs.
- ✓Tag mappings by station and segment
- ✓Data quality flags and missing tag handling
- ✓Manual overrides with approval controls
Operations Logbook and Shift Handover
Daily operations logs for continuity, audit trails, and incident investigations.
- ✓Shift notes with approvals
- ✓Event timelines by segment
- ✓Attachments: photos, reports, documents
Alarm, Anomaly, and Incident Workflow
Alarm rules and workflows to ensure measured, documented responses.
- !Rule-based alarms and acknowledgments
- ✓Investigator assignments with SLAs
- ✓Closure evidence and approvals
Pigging Management
Pigging planning, execution, results, and linkage to integrity status.
- ✓Schedules and reminders
- ✓Execution records and findings
- ✓Trends for frequency and outcomes
Inspection and Defect Registry
A registry of inspection findings (ILI/NDT) to control risk and track follow-up actions.
- ✓Defect locations and severity
- ✓Repair recommendations
- ✓Action workflows and closures
Integrity Risk Dashboard (Optional)
Risk scores by segment based on findings, anomalies, and incident history.
- ✓Risk heatmaps by segment
- ✓Top risks and mitigation actions
- ✓Rising/falling risk trends
Compliance and Regulatory Reporting
Audit-ready reporting packs: incident packs, inspection packs, and operational KPI summaries.
- ✓PDF and Excel exports
- ✓Approval logs and change logs
- ✓Scheduled reporting (optional)
Executive Cockpit
Management summaries: uptime, throughput, incidents, integrity status, and action backlogs.
- ✓Throughput vs targets
- ✓Incidents and response times
- ✓Integrity action backlogs
Example "wow" screens for steering committees
Placeholders ready for screenshots/mockups. Focus areas: early warning, event timelines, and integrity actions.
Pipeline Network Dashboard
Segment KPIs, station status, throughput, pressure deviations, and concise alarm summaries.
Incident and Alarm Timeline
Alarm chronology, responses, actions, and approvals. Ready for audits and SOP reviews.
Pigging and Inspection Planner
Pigging and inspection schedules, statuses, findings, and repair priorities.
Integrity Risk Heatmap
Segment risk scores, key risk drivers, and mitigation actions for management reviews.
Integration and governance
This system can run alongside SCADA. Events and inspection findings are controlled via workflows and audit trails.
SCADA and Historian Integration
Tag mappings, trends, and data capture for flow/pressure. Manual overrides are always logged.
CMMS/ERP Integration (Optional)
Exports or APIs for work orders, maintenance history, and parts consumption.
Audit Trail and Approvals
Change logs, approval logs, and evidence ensure decisions are traceable and accountable.
Phased implementation without disrupting operations
Typically starts with monitoring and logbooks, then anomaly and incident workflows, followed by integrity and inspection registries.
Phase 1: Monitoring + Logbook
Establish operational dashboards and standardized event logs for shifts and management.
- ✓Pipeline network master + tag mappings
- ✓Throughput and pressure dashboards
- ✓Operations logbooks + approvals
Phase 2: Incident + Integrity
Add anomaly and incident workflows plus pigging and inspection registries through to compliance packs.
- ✓Alarm rules + incident workflows
- ✓Pigging and inspection history
- ✓Risk dashboards + compliance reporting
