Midstream & pipelines.

The challenge

In-line inspection every few years, cathodic protection readings in spreadsheets and growth rates estimated by hand.

Winda brings integrity software, pipeline engineers and probes with access fittings, so each new survey sharpens growth rates and dig lists.

What Winda brings

Integrity that learns from every inspection run.

Engineering services

Pipeline integrity engineers work with the operator's team to set up the program and train the people who run it.

Field hardware

Outcomes

  • Feature growth rates come from aligned runs.
  • Dig lists are ranked by risk.
  • The integrity plan is ready for the regulator.

Agents

6 specialist agents for midstream & pipelines.

  • Pipeline Threat

    Operations & integrity

    Assesses each pipeline threat and identifies high-consequence areas.

  • Aligns successive in-line inspections, matches features and calculates real growth.

  • Ranks anomalies, sets response times and builds the dig list.

  • Cathodic Protection

    Operations & integrity

    Reads rectifier, test post and survey data and checks protection criteria.

  • Assessment Method

    Operations & integrity

    Chooses between in-line inspection, pressure test and direct assessment.

  • MAOP Verification

    Operations & integrity

    Checks that operating pressure records are traceable, verifiable and complete.
