For more than half a century, pipeline construction has been based around the discontinuous manufacture and joining of 40 foot lengths of linepipe, which are first manufactured from steel plate at pipe mills, then sent to pipe coating yards and thereafter transported to site for welding - often in different continents. They are laid into trenches which are back-filled and subsequently protected in operation from corrosion and some are intermittently monitored using internal pigs to detect any corrosion or damage. This can evolve. Regulatory requirements in North America are changing and the business climate is becoming more receptive to novel technology than in previous decades with particular interest in remediation, replacement of aging lines and online leak detection. Pipestream® is a pipeline technology company, marketing a suite of products for such applications which add value to clients by a combination of cost-reduction and enabling capability. Pipestream® is committed to the key promises of quality, delivery on time and client value for oil and gas facilities projects and operations. Its business vision is to bridge the gap between technology and the end-user; to provide high-quality game-changing solutions which resolve the key issues currently constraining this industry sector including: raw material supply limitations, project costs, trained personnel availability, quality control and linepipe logistics.
