Safeguarding a 27 km Natural Gas Pipeline
A natural gas pipeline operator in Thailand sought out a solution to protect its pipeline from Third Party Interference (TPI). Previously, employees had been expected to patrol the pipeline 24/7, but a more effective solution was needed. The client conducted various trials in 2019 to compare AP Sensing to competing systems and was very happy with the results of AP Sensing's Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) system.
