Smart sensors, simple tools, machine learning.
About
i2i is a sensor technology company based in Manchester UK that is looking to disrupt the pipeline services sector by innovating simple, smart, in-line tools that combine with new generation IoT digital technologies for the frequent and low cost inspection and monitoring of Oil & Gas pipelines. i2i’s range of Pioneer™ smart pigs are designed to operate with high frequency, in all mediums and complex geometry pipelines, collecting big data on pipeline integrity and flow assurance without disrupting operations. Pipeception® is i2i's proprietary machine learning signal recognition software that carries out rapid data analysis from all sensors, and highlights anomalous signals for engineering analysis. Enhanced data analysis leads to intelligence based decision making, trending and monitoring of anomalies and the implementation of predictive maintenance strategies. The benefits are a safer, more efficient and connected energy infrastructure. By integrating sensor technology on simple utility pigs that are deployed with greater frequency inside the pipelines a pipeline operator can get regular & accurate data on the flow assurance & integrity of the pipeline. By using advanced signal recognition software to organise and analyse the increase in data sets i2i can deliver data on the actual conditions of the pipeline direct to the engineers who need it the most within hours of a Pioneer pig being recovered from the pipeline.
