Pipe Exposure Inspections can be used to document inspections of buried pipes that have become exposed.
Properly inspecting exposed pipes and assessing corrosion or damage is an industry best practice and regulatory requirement for many gas utilities and hazardous liquid pipeline operators. In the United States, the U.S. Department of Transportation Pipeline and Hazardous Material Safety Administration (PHMSA) regulation section § 192.459 requires examination of buried pipelines when exposed. Digitally capturing inspection information accelerates the ability to take any necessary action, reduces the potential for making mistakes during the inspection process, and makes it easier to demonstrate regulatory compliance.
The Pipe Exposure Inspections solution delivers a set of capabilities that help gas utilities or pipeline operators perform exposed pipe inspections that play an important part in the maintenance of a safe and reliable natural gas or hazardous liquid pipeline system.
