An Effective and Proven Technique for Continuous Detection and Location of Third Party Interference Along Pipelines

The potential benefits of deploying an effective integrity monitoring system on pipelines are well understood. FFT has just released a significant/new, cost-effective third party interference (TPI) detection system specifically designed for the pipeline industry. It employs patented fibre optic sensors and propriety software to give real-time, full-time protection against all forms of third party interference over the whole length of the pipeline. It detects the location of each intrusion event to within 50 m, no matter how long the pipeline is. To our knowledge, there are no other systems available with the combined features of our system.Copyright © 2002 by ASME
