Detection Services provides water loss management solutions including leak detection, flow and pressure monitoring, and pipeline condition assessment using p-CATTM. P-CATTM is a non-invasive technology developed by the University of Adelaide to diagnose pipeline condition using transient pressure wave analysis. It can scan long distances of pipe to identify locations of damage with minimal disruption. Detection Services applies p-CATTM to help water utilities extend pipeline life by targeting repairs and limiting replacements only to necessary sections.

SCT an Advanced Pipeline Integrity SolutionBrett Payton
The SCT Technique fills the gap in the armory of integrity engineers when assessing the condition of difficult to inspect pipelines and is being referred to as a "game changer" by many individuals in the industry.

Coiled tubing is a unique fluid and tool conveyance means used to intervene throughout the entire well lifetime. Its flexibility of use is certainly one of the largest in the oil-and-gas industry, ranging from logging to stimulation to cleanout and even drilling. However, for the longest time, it was only seen as a rudimentary fluid conveyance system, despite its capability to service any well deviation.
With the development of instrumented tools for downhole point measurements and the use of fiber optics for distributed sensing, the recent advent of coiled tubing real-time monitoring has completely transformed this image. The access to live wellbore information—such as pressure, temperature, or flow—along with accurate depth control thanks to casing collar locator and gamma ray sensors have greatly enhanced fluid placement. Meanwhile, the ability to monitor the load, torque, and accelerations the bottomhole assembly is subjected to significantly improves the performance and possibility to use and manipulate downhole tools. Thanks to real-time monitoring, a whole new realm of optimization possibility was discovered.
This lecture describes the various real-time measurements that are available today during coiled tubing interventions and how they can be used to provide the industry with faster, safer, and more efficient operations while maximizing return on investment. A wide range of applications and examples will be discussed. Through them, one will be able to appreciate how coiled tubing has now entered a new era where the limits of operational optimization still have not been reached.

Sinkhole Locating & Corrosion Quantification with Pipe Penetrating RadarNicholas Goertz
SewerVUE Technology's Pipe Penetrating Radar (PPR) is the underground in-pipe application of ground penetrating radar. Using PPR, it is possible to both quantify corrosion of the inside walls of pipelines, and detect voids developing on the outside. This presentation outlines these uses of PPR, deployed via SewerVUE Technology's Surveyor robot.

The TIDALFLUX 2000 flow sensor with integrated and non-contact capacitive level measuring system provides accurate flow measurement in partially filled pipes.
TIDALFLUX is designed to measure reliably between 10% and 100% of the pipe cross section. The integrated level sensors in the liner are in no contact with the liquid and are therefore insensitive against fat and oil floating on the surface.
After a detailed market analysis and understanding various challenges faced while the measurement of different process parameters, we have designed a combined sensor system - ELNBAR which can be used for the measurement of multiple parameters eliminating the need of using multiple measurement instruments. This is a single integrated sensor used for the measurement of various parameters like Velocity, Flow, Level, Pressure, Temperature & TDS/Conductivity.
Cox Precision metering products by Badger Meter provide flow measurement solutions for the test and measurement market and precision industrial applications.
In This PPT we are discussed about complete details of that product (Use,Operation, Technical details, Dimensions, Wiring, and etc..)

The University of Adelaide has developed a technology that enables the simultaneous non-invasive diagnosis of pipeline condition over long distances along pipelines with minimal disruption of current services. This technology is called pipeline conditional assessment technology or p-CAT™.
After 17 years of research and development by the University of Adelaide, Detection Services is putting p-CAT™ to practical use.
Validation of the technique conducted on field pipelines by Detection Services and the University of Adelaide has shown that measured transient pressure wave traces used in p-CAT™ can provide significant amounts of information about a pipe system.

Until now pipe condition assessment can incur large costs due to the available low resolution of current methods. The replacement of large lengths of good condition pipe result, rather than targeting only the damaged sections.
p-CAT™ is a non-invasive, non-destructive, reliable and safe method of performing pipe condition assessment while the pipeline system is in operation. It is a pipe screening tool with the ability to test long sections (many kilometres) quickly to identify small localised “hot spots” out of thousands of metres of pipe.
p-CAT™ is a low cost solution for large and small scale pipeline condition assessment.
p-CAT™ is able to locate defects in your pipeline, limiting the repairs and replacements to only sections in need of attention, extending the life of your assets and deferring replacement.

Transients, or small water hammer events, are a natural continuously occurring phenomena in pipeline networks. The transients arise from the fluid acceleration (or deceleration) associated with the constantly varying demands at the supply points of the network. The water hammer waves propagate unimpeded through smooth uniform sections of pipe. However, as the waves arrive at changes in the cross-sectional properties of the pipeline (such as junctions, changes in diameter, changes in pipe material, or corroded or damaged sections of pipe), they are partially transmitted and reflected. In this manner, the properties of the system are encoded, or embedded, in the behaviour of the water hammer waves.

A pipeline system under test is instrumented with numerous pressure transducers
A controlled water hammer event is induced within the system,
The pressure variation response of the water hammer wave is measured at the transducer locations.
From the resulting measured pressure trace, signal processing techniques can be used to make inferences as to the properties of the pipeline system.
In this manner, such techniques hold analogies to sonar and radar systems where waves (acoustic and electromagnetic) are transmitted into the surrounding environment and bounced off remote objects in an attempt to identify the object.

It is the dependency between the changes in the metal thickness (and cement mortar lining) with the wave speed of the transient that gives rise to the observed reflections which can, in turn, be used to classify the condition of the pipeline. This relationship between wavespeed and pipe wall elasticity can be theoretically predicted by the following equation:
For cement mortar lined pipeline, the contribution of the cement mortar lining can be included as an equivalent thickness of steel.
The wave speed of a section of pipeline is extremely sensitive to the combined effect of the loss of the cement mortar lining, corrosion of the metal wall and slight increase in the internal diameter of the pipeline. For example, the wave speed can decrease from 1,015 m/s to 825 m/s for a 1.5 mm reduction in metal wall thickness. As a consequence, the magnitude and frequency of reflections following a transient will increase as the wavefront moves along a section of pipeline that is damaged. The wave speed is also sensitive to the reduction of wall thickness caused by external corrosion (that is, pipe wall thinning should give slower wave speed and a micro-reflection regardless of whether it is due to external or internal corrosion).
