Scale up of VLD Cloud Technology for Rapid Deployment on Upstream/Midstream Pipelines and Adaptation of the Technology to Conserve Water in City Water Distribution Networks
FY 2021-22 · 2021-10-01
Summary
Even though there are incumbent technologies in place for leak detection in short length pipelines, they are not cost effective due to upfront capital investment required to implement them. Vanmok technology proposed in this project would address industry challenges, including emulsion pipelines leak detection. This project would support Vanmok in achieving the following objectives:
• Part 1: Develop and benchmark the capability of Vanmok’s leak detection in emulsion pipelines by conducting field trials.
• Part 2: Develop and test the completeness of the technology for leak detection in city water distribution networks
• Part 3: Develop the technology necessary to scale up and rapid deployment of Vanmok leak detection technology.

Description
Even though there are incumbent technologies in place for leak detection in short length pipelines, they are not cost effective due to upfront capital investment required to implement them. Vanmok technology proposed in this project would address industry challenges, including emulsion pipelines leak detection. This project would support Vanmok in achieving the following objectives:
• Part 1: Develop and benchmark the capability of Vanmok’s leak detection in emulsion pipelines by conducting field trials.

Description (French)
Bien qu'il existe des technologies existantes pour la détection des fuites dans les pipelines de courte longueur, elles ne sont pas rentables en raison de l'investissement initial nécessaire à leur mise en œuvre. La technologie de Vanmok proposée dans ce projet permettrait de relever les défis de l'industrie, notamment la détection des fuites dans les pipelines à émulsion. Ce projet permettrait à Vanmok d'atteindre les objectifs suivants : • Partie 1 : développer et évaluer la capacité de détection de fuites de Vanmok dans les pipelines à émulsion en effectuant des essais sur le terrain • Partie 2 : développer et tester l'exhaustivité de la technologie pour la détection des fuites dans les réseaux de distribution d'eau des villes • Partie 3 : développer la technologie nécessaire à la mise à l'échelle et au déploiement rapide de la technologie de détection des fuites de Vanmok.
