Pipeline leaks are a serious threat to the safety and efficiency of oil and gas production. Leaks can cause environmental damage, fire hazards, loss of product, and increased operational costs. That’s why SVES Oilfield Supply Co., Ltd, a leading provider of high-end oilfield services and equipment, uses infrared leak detection technology to prevent and detect pipeline(API 5L Pipe Line) leaks on the rig site.

Infrared leak detection is a non-invasive and non-destructive method that uses thermal imaging cameras to identify temperature changes that are caused by moisture or gas escaping from the pipeline. By using an infrared camera, SVES engineers can see if and where there are spots within the pipeline that are radiating more or less heat than the surrounding area, indicating a potential leak.

The image below shows an example of how SVES engineers use infrared leak detection to check the pipeline condition on the rig site. The engineer on the left is holding an infrared leak detector close to the pipeline, while the engineer on the right is monitoring the thermal image on a tablet. The red and yellow colors on the image represent areas of higher temperature, while the blue and green colors represent areas of lower temperature. The engineers can compare the thermal image with the normal temperature range of the pipeline to determine if there is a leak or not.

Infrared leak detection has many advantages over other methods of leak detection, such as:

It is fast and accurate, allowing the engineers to locate the exact source and size of the leak in minutes.

It is safe and reliable, minimizing the risk of human error and exposure to hazardous substances.

It is cost-effective and environmentally friendly, reducing the need for expensive repairs, shutdowns, and cleanup.

SVES Oilfield Supply Co., Ltd is committed to providing the best solutions for the oil and gas industry, using the latest technology and innovation. By using infrared leak detection, SVES ensures the safety and quality of its pipeline operations, while also saving time and money for its clients.
