Part of the functionality provided by these technologies help negate or mitigate errors introduced by Coriolis forces, electronic drift, random errors like pipeline noises, and Abbe errors (these errors have the potential to be especially problematic because they continue to accumulate the longer an inspectionThe systematic process of visually examining, testing, or monitoring pipeline components to assess their condition, integrity, and compliance with regulatory re… runs, which can turn a small error into a large one if the inspection runs over a long distance). As it turns out, some of this technology was developed to help find and exclude data that would muddle accurate detections.
With this data “noise” eliminated, Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) tools can be deployed in conjunction with any of NDT Global’s inline inspectionA method used to assess the the integrity and condition of pipelines.
