Tulsa, a leading provider of pipeline equipment and services, announced plans to create a Global Pipeline Integrity Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. When completed, the world-class showcase facility will combine the TDW inline inspection engineering, manufacturing, operations, service center, and data analysis functions in one location. Not only will it house the company's inline inspection capabilities at one site, but also will leverage "the total breadth of TDW technologies," said Eric Rogers, director of pipeline integrity solutions for TDW. The center will showcase TDW pigging products, including launchers and receivers, and pipeline services, such as cleaning and non-destructive testing.
"Our technologies are constantly evolving and expanding," Rogers said. "Our ability to combine technologies and generate multiple data sets in a single inspection makes defect discrimination more accurate and efficient than ever before.." The center is expected to be in operation in the first half of 2012.
