Broadening the Remit
The evolution of inline inspection tools has continued at an impressive pace since their inception in the early 1970s. However the technology is not an end in itself as it needs to deliver to a very specific brief and demonstrate that pipeline systems are safe and fit for purpose. Martin Bluck, Magnetics Product Manager at PII Pipeline Solutions (PII) explains how today’s intelligent pigs have been developed with a broad spectrum of capabilities in order to better serve customers.
Fugro’S SAGE Profile on Display at OPT 2015
Fugro GeoConsulting said its SAGE Profile subsea pipeline analysis software will be much in evidence at the end of this month during OPT 2015 - Offshore Pipeline Technology Conference (Amsterdam, February 25-26) and at the preceding seminar on Pipeline Global Buckling Design (February 24). SAGE Profile team members will deliver presentations, and in the exhibition delegates will be able to see a demonstration of the new SAGE Profile 3.0 software, and meet with Fugro’s geotechnical and pipeline experts at their stand.
Software Models Full Supply Chain for Process Industry
In the oil and gas process industries, accurate simulation and assessment of logistics operations are essential to improve efficiency. With the latest release of DNV GL’s Maros software for reliability, availability and maintainability, a new and more powerful simulation engine can model the full supply chain in a RAM study. With the new release of Maros software, users can incorporate product transport and tank modeling into a RAM study, previously available in Taro software.
Offshore Users Benefit from SACS Project Files
Distributed offshore engineering users of SACS V5.7 are benefiting from the extended information mobility provided through the software’s integration with the ProjectWise project delivery solution as well as enhanced integration with both MOSES and AutoPIPE. SACS software for the structural analysis and design of offshore structures, including oil, gas, and wind farm platforms, is part of Bentley’s offshore product line. Bentley’s VP of Offshore and Marine Phil Christensen said…
