PIPELINE
RIGHT-OF-WAY
INSPECTIONS
We provide pipeline right-of-way inspections to monitor the condition of infrastructure and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
Inspections are performed using UAV systems, allowing for efficient coverage of large areas while maintaining a clear view of the entire right-of-way. This approach improves visibility in difficult terrain and significantly reduces the time required compared to traditional ground-based methods.
In addition to visual inspection, we integrate methane detection using infrared laser-based sensors paired with thermal imagery, developed in alignment with Saskatchewan Energy and Resources (MER) requirements, allowing leaks to be identified during the same inspection.
During inspections, we assess:
- Vegetation conditions
- Signage presence and condition
- Evidence of trench sluffing or subsidence
- Potential pipeline exposure
- Methane leaks and anomalies
- General right-of-way integrity
All findings are documented and geo-referenced, providing clear records for reporting, maintenance planning, and regulatory compliance.
