The increasing use of geometric pigs in the last five years has significantly contributed to the quality of pipelines in construction, as well as to geometric defect detection, assessment and identification, improving pipeline maintenance and overall quality. Geometric pigs with advanced built-in electronics allow precise defect sizing, helping pipeline integrity analysis. This paper presents actual anomalies detected by geometric pigs through comprehensive assessment and anomaly identification.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
