Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Firms

Vanmok Innovations Holding Inc.

$90,000.00

IoT / Cloud Based Theft and Leak Detection (as per API 1130 performance metrics) in Hydrocarbon Liquid Transportation Pipelines

FY 2019-20 · 2019-08-01

Summary
Losses of the liquid hydrocarbon from transmission pipelines may occur incidentally due to various natural and technical reasons or intentionally by drilling from outside perhaps with the purpose of damaging or stealing the refined oil products from the pipeline. Both two sources of leakage from a pipeline have been considered an ongoing issue in this industry. Vanmok will develop pipeline theft detection by using mathematical and physical modeling and implementing IoT technology coupled with Cloud platform. Once ready to be used, this technology will bringing the theft detection system at the finger tip and palm of the pipeline operators and or management, law enforcement officers wherever in the world they may be or whatever time of day.

Description
Losses of the liquid hydrocarbon from transmission pipelines may occur incidentally due to various natural and technical reasons or intentionally by drilling from outside perhaps with the purpose of damaging or stealing the refined oil products from the pipeline. Both two sources of leakage from a pipeline have been considered an ongoing issue in this industry.

Description (French)
Les pertes d'hydrocarbures liquides provenant des pipelines de transport peuvent survenir accidentellement pour diverses raisons naturelles et techniques ou intentionnellement en forant de l'extérieur, peut-être dans le but d'endommager ou de voler les produits pétroliers raffinés du pipeline. Les deux sources de fuite d'un pipeline ont été considérées comme un problème permanent dans cette industrie. Vanmok développera la détection des vols de pipelines en utilisant la modélisation mathématique et physique et en implémentant la technologie IoT associée à la plate-forme infonuagique. Une fois prête à être utilisée, cette technologie mettra le système de détection des vols à la portée de la main des exploitants de pipelines ou des responsables de l'application de la loi, où qu'ils se trouvent dans le monde et à tout moment de la journée.
