Process Vision LineVu gas contamination detector

Click2Contact

LineVu is a video-based system designed to detect contamination in high-pressure gas systems, enable alarm notifications, and allow access to live video to both office-based and field-based engineers.

By providing better data on which to base operational decisions regarding process safety and efficiency, the system is designed to improve accountability of gas suppliers to gas network systems and boost production in gas treatment plants. With live data, immediate action can be taken to prevent or minimise further contamination entering a gas network system, and recorded data can be used as evidence to recover pigging and clean-up costs from suppliers who breach supply agreements.

Liquid carryover, foam or even hydrate formation are common problems in gas pipelines and gas treatment plants that need attention as soon as they occur. Unexpected liquids appearing in gas systems are the cause of large-scale loss and process failures, and can have an impact on asset integrity.

LineVu is a high-precision camera system that can be used to determine the real flow limits of a gas/liquid separator system to support and improve flow modelling of as-built processing plants. Permanent installation allows process failure events to be detected early; this prevents loss and damage of assets such as compressors or absorber beds, and means foam control becomes easier to manage.
