Reduce Pipeline Damages and Operate Near MAOP

Protecting and safely operating pipelines calls for sound Integrity Management and Damage Prevention Plans. Built with an operational focus on oil & gas and related industries, UtiliSphere Intelligence Center can help leverage both historical and current data to identify trends and take preemptive actions to reduce damages and maintain operations at or near Maximum Allowable Operating Pressure (MAOP).

The integrity of pipelines can be challenged by external factors like excavation activity that can ding or rupture the line. That’s why 9 of the top 10 energy companies* use UtiliSphere irthnet in their damage prevention efforts.

Improve Compliance
Even with the best processes and technology, damages still occur. PHMSA and Public Utility Commissions require both an audit trail and the ability to access and report on damages data quickly. UtiliSphere Incident Tracker enables companies to centrally document and manage all activities related to a pipeline incident, such as excavation damages and other accidents that can slow or disrupt product flow.

UtiliSphere Integrity Solutions enable both Transmission and Distribution pipeline operators to leverage a repeatable and verifiable methodology that falls within PHMSA’s Integrity Management Program guidelines, combined with the most accurate, comprehensive and up-to-date data available.

Empower the Field
It’s no surprise that mobile technology is helping all types of organizations – including pipeline operators – to be more efficient. UtiliSphere Mobile enables route technicians and pipeline engineers to gather more accurate, real-time data with or without an Internet connection.

UtiliSphere uMonitor empowers field operations teams performing standbys and right-of-way management, making them more efficient in documenting these important activities.

Experience Quick Time-to-Value
Organizations using UtiliSphere see results quickly because it’s a cloud-based solution.  This means no local installation is required, costs can be allocated to suit business needs, and product enhancements and updates are available immediately.
