Optical Sensing for Oil and Gas Pipeline Inspection Solution
Secure pipelines with a new generation of AI-powered optical fiber sensing.
Next-Generation All-Optical Sensing Safeguards Pipeline Security
In the oil and gas industry, pipeline inspection always relies on costly and inefficient manual inspection that is prone to safety risks and economic losses. Existing methods cannot sustain 24/7 real-time detection. In view of this, Huawei has released the Sensing OptiX solution that uses distributed fiber optic sensing (DFOS) technology. By using communication optical cables deployed alongside pipelines as sensors, the solution collects and analyzes vibration signals sent by optical fibers to accurately paint a picture of construction beyond pipelines.
Gain the Edge
Architecture
The device quickly analyzes vibration pattern information, identifies the event type, accurately locates the intrusion, and reports an alarm, implementing online real-time detection and security warning of the entire pipeline. The device uses an innovative enhanced oDSP with a built-in blind spot error correction algorithm that greatly enhances the effectiveness of weak signals and improves the effective signal collection rate to 99.9%.
