Interacting Threats in Pipelines

Uncover the truth behind interacting threats

We know how to manage Corrosion. Geometry. Cracks. Each threat has its own playbook. But what happens when they don’t play by the rules?

Sometimes, anomalies don’t appear alone. They overlap. They interact. And when they do, the rules change. Detection becomes uncertain. Assessment grows complex. Risk hides in the shadows.

To uncover what’s really happening, we need more than inspection - we need insight. In-line tools and data analysis must work in tandem, peeling back layers to reveal the true nature of interacting threats.

The R-Files

The threats are closer than you think.

Our pipeline special agents are in the field, piecing together clues, exposing hidden risks, and protecting critical infrastructure.

Dive into the R-Files to see how ROSEN’s experts approached complex integrity challenges – step by step, insight by insight.

Not science fiction. Real pipeline protection.

From Detection to Prevention: Advanced Assessment of Dent and Gouge Risks in Liquid Pipelines

The soil looked harmless. The danger lay beneath. A 30 km liquid pipeline cutting through rural farmland carried more than just product. It carried a silent threat. Hidden dents and gouges, caused by years of farming activity, compromised its integrity. Shallow cover, repeated mechanical impact, and unseen deformation created the perfect setup an incident. 

What began as a routine inspection turned into a forensic investigation. Tracing damage patterns, cross-referencing satellite data, and uncovering the root cause of repeated interference.
