White papers: ENTEGRA
ENTEGRA is a global provider of ultra-high-resolution (UHR) inline inspection (ILI) systems, specialising in magnetic flux leakage (MFL) and caliper (CAL) combination ILI services, and cathodic protection current mapping (CPCM) technologies and services.
Known for having a deep-rooted and experienced staff, ENTEGRA services the global pipeline industry with a fleet of tethered and free-swimming MFL/CAL/IMU tools ranging from 3 in. to 36 in., and a fleet of CPCM/IMU tools that range from 6 in. to 24 in. The modern mechanical and electrical designs of their tools enable them to build them shorter and lighter, thus reducing drag and increasing overall collapsibility and data quality. All of ENTEGRA’s tool fleets have identical sensor spacing and sampling rates making all tools capable of collecting data in 4X the resolution of standard High-Resolution tools on the market. ENTEGRA’s system, combining UHR tools, its CPCM platform and its team of data analysts and support professionals, is setting the bar for first run success, increased throughput, reduced cost, risk mitigation and ROI.
With multiple locations throughout the US, Canada, and Europe, ENTEGRA partners with pipeline operators and owners, worldwide, to help sustain and improve the integrity of pipelines with industry leading technology and In-Line Inspection Systems.
Paradigm busted – Pinhole detection utilising UHR Axial MFL and Caliper ILI, By: Mark Olson
With the advent of ultra-high resolution (UHR) MFL/caliper combination tools, the detection, characterisation, and sizing of true pinhole anomalies is a new frontier for axial magnetic flux leakage (MFL) inline inspection (ILI). This paper will discuss seven years of experience with UHR MFL inline inspection, challenging conventional wisdom on MFL technology.
