Map and Update Pipeline Facility Information

Pipeline operators often lack an automated process to map, reconcile and update pipeline centerline and pipeline facility information, such as valves and joints, derived from In-Line Inspection (ILI) runs. Could you better manage your ILI Facility information?

UtiliSphere ILI Facility Mapping visually represents pipeline facility data in a three-dimensional GIS format for improved accuracy and safer operations. By methodically extracting ILI information, UtiliSphere ILI Facility Mapping identifies areas that require realignment, enabling operators to accurately re-align pipeline centerline and related facility assets, such as valves, joints and flanges. irth Solutions can also perform the pipeline realignment, if desired.

The ILI facility data is accessible via Intelligence Center in any GIS format for sharing, collaboration and correlation.

Get More From Existing Data

UtiliSphere ILI Facility Mapping streamlines data sharing and improves your ability integrate and analyze ILI data as part of your GIS data reconciliation process. Improve your GIS by comparing ILI data with existing GIS facility feature data (valves, joints, flanges) to uncover missing or geospatially misaligned features, including facilities and pipe centerlines. Our experts follow a repeatable and verifiable methodology to integrate and analyze comprehensive ILI facility data.

Streamline Integration of ILI Integrity Data

UtiliSphere ILI Facility Mapping leverages advanced technology for enhanced automation, analysis, documentation and communication of Integrity Management data and processes. This proven methodology means quicker ILI data integration and elimination of duplicative efforts for an overall more efficient integrity management program.

Partnership with an Industry Leader

By choosing UtiliSphere Integrity Solutions, you’re choosing to work with a company that exclusively serves the needs of the energy and utility industry. With more than 15-years of experience protecting the integrity of pipeline from excavation damage, the primary cause of pipeline failure, you can feel confident that the irth Solutions team understands your unique needs.

Collect & Verify

We collect ILI information, including pipe anomalies, ILI coordinates, pipe facilities, odometer readings, and pipeline characteristics such as wall thickness, from any smart pig vendor or professional engineering firm.

Analyze

Through data integration and mapping data from proprietary vendor formats, ILI data and coordinate information is integrated within a GIS environment in order to perform additional integrity analytics. This could include cross-comparison with other integrity data sets such as HCA, Class Location and One Call ticket saturation information.

Deliver

We provide fully integrated ILI data – including facilities (valves, joints, flanges), pipe location coordinates, and pipe characteristics such as wall thickness and diameter – through UtiliSphere in any GIS format. We also provide a validated & documented methodology for PHMSA compliance. Specialized alignment sheets are also available.
