We not only provide information on pipeline condition to our clients, but we also support them in making maximum use of it to ensure the pipeline integrity is managed effectively.

Pipeline integrity is an essential aspect of asset management, and LIN SCAN recognises it through the provision of the following services to pipeline owners and operators:

Fitness-For-Purpose assessments

Stretching from a simplified evaluation of the pipeline for operational/design requirements to corrosion growth estimations using computer modelling and simulation programs

Installation of and support for Pipeline Data Management Systems (PDMS) for total control, monitoring and recording the pipeline condition

Fitness-For-Purpose assessment reports include the assessment of the available pipeline data as subject to Level II assessment using specialised software tools to determine the remaining life as well as cost-effective and safe operating scenarios. The report also includes the corrosion growth rate of critical anomalies and the susceptibility of anomalies to cluster formation. We perform the assessment based on API 579 requirements.

Pipeline Specialised Chemicals Supply

LIN SCAN has the resources to supply specially formulated corrosion and biocide derivatives to curtail the ingress of corrosion activities. Custom solutions can be arranged upon request. Our support can be extended to a specialised training course on the use of corrosion inhibitors and chemical treatment.
