PiMSlider®  A graphical Windows-based application to assistOperation Managers in all aspects of pipeline integritymanagement.

PIPELINE INTEGRITY

The PIMSlider®  suite of software applications is a

comprehensive graphical multi-user software tool that

processes pipeline, population and environmental

information in an integrated way for all phases of the

Pipeline Integrity Management process. The PIMSlider® tool

provides vital information at the right time for business-

critical decisions related to designing maintenance

programmes, inspection strategies, investment for repairs

or replacements, or demonstrating the integrity of the

pipeline.

The most important objective of any pipeline operator is thepreservation and licence to operate a safe and reliable pipeline

system. Without the right information or tools to process

information, a company cannot make sound strategic decisions on

the state of any part of their pipeline network.

Whether is comes down to designing maintenance schemes and

inspection strategies, or demonstrating the integrity of the grid, IT

systems form a vital part of the overall management of the

network to provide auditable results.

PIPELINE DATA INTEGRITY

Pipeline operators require vast amounts of data in order to manage

the everyday activities related to pipeline integrity. In order for key

decisions to be made effectively, gathering and interpreting of

correct data becomes an important task. The best way to solve this

problem is to transfer this data to a single uniform relational

database. Storing this data in one place and one clearly defined

format allows connections to be created (for different pieces of

data) for the same pipeline object.

With this information available, the operator can analyse the

relationship between the different facts and figures with the object,

and make appropriate decisions related to pipeline inspections,

repair plans and preventative measures.

 PiMSlider® Components 

PiMSlider DATA MANAGEMENT

•  Full integration of all pipeline data

•  Supports manual input, storage, editing and removal of all

data

•  Data can be accessed by a completely integrated synchronised

graphical user interface such as table, map and graph view

•  Data received from various sources can be presented in one

view in order to assist the user in the analysis of pipeline

issues

•  The pipeline and the “features” on the pipeline (valves,

casings, crossings and defects) are stored as individual

objects. All objects have an adjustable set of object specific

attributes

•  All pipeline construction information, operational data

(pressure, temperature), graphic images or maps, photo’s,texts, multimedia documents, pig run and excavation data,

surveys, cost figures, object maintenance and repair is stored
