The Issue
Project Innovation
This project will demonstrate the use of remote and embedded sensing technologies to monitor and gain insights into the performance of gas infrastructure assets and manage risk. Sensing technologies will be deployed at two field sites and large-scale experimental sites. Data collected will be coupled with an open-source a seismic risk assessment tool in predictive modeling and data analytics. The project will increase gas system safety and reliability by enabling more accurate identification of at-risk infrastructure.
