Asset Management > Monitoring Solutions
EQS MONITORING SOLUTIONS
Tanks, pressure vessels, and pipelines are omnipresent infrastructures in the industry, where they are used to store and transport products and raw materials to and from factories and, in many cases, to distribution points and end customers.
Over time, due to material aging, corrosion reduces the original wall thickness of the infrastructures, which may compromise their reliable operation and even cause the collapse of assets. In addition to representing, in many cases, a risk to the environment, health, and integrity of workers and surrounding populations, this type of situation can cause high economic losses, directly due to unscheduled stops and indirectly due to supply failures.
Thus, within the scope of protection and optimization of structural resilience of critical assets, it is fundamental to carry out an inspection of structural integrity to follow the evolution of the structure condition during its aging. In this context, the application of monitoring solutions has shown capabilities of surveying large structural components for defects, providing more comprehensive information about the integrity condition of the structure under analysis.

Monitoring and Prediction with UNO DIGITAL PLATFORM
UNO platform predictive algorithms produce real-time insights, promoting preventive and predictive asset management, and the management of the useful life of the asset by inferring the possible consequences on the long-term performance.
The quality of data is fundamental to producing quality information.
EQS Digital collects data from multiple data sources with quality guarantees:
● Installation of new monitoring systems
● Installation of new sensors
After collecting and contextualizing data, EQS Digital can implement forecasting systems that enhance the transformation of data into information.
With good information, EQS Digital algorithms can detect and predict deviations and potential failures.
EQS Digital’s monitoring and forecasting systems guarantee a holistic and standardized view of all sites and equipment, so that our customers reduce operating costs, optimize investments, and reduce unscheduled downtime.
PIPELINE LEAK DETECTION AND INTEGRITY MONITORINGAPPLICATION IN AN INDUSTRIAL CHEMICAL PLANT
PAIN
Early leak detection in a 4000 meters long ammonia pipeline
INTEGRATED SOLUTION OF TWO TECHNOLOGIES
EQS first installed a distributed measurement system using fiber optics attached to the 4 generatrixes of the pipeline. With this system, we can identify, with a 2 meters resolution, ammonia leakage.
Leak detection is an important part, however, it will not be enough to anticipate the occurrence of a leakage. For this, and through our MOT sensors, a proprietary technology from EQS, it is possible to identify these possible leaks before they occur. MOT technology allows the monitoring of mass loss in-service, and with the integrity evolution reports, it is possible to know when the asset will fail.
