Installation Considerations for Pipelines
All three of the distributed fiber optic sensing technologies can be used in monitoring pipelines, as each provides unique insight into the operational characteristics and environmental conditions of the pipeline.
FOA Standard For Installing Fiber Optic Cable Plants
Since building systems may require many types of cables, both fiber and copper, these cables should be separated to protect the fiber cables from damage and all cables marked properly.
The FOA Reference For Fiber Optics
Although most fiber optic cables are not conductive, any metallic hardware used in fiber optic cabling systems (such as wall-mounted termination boxes, racks, and patch panels) must be grounded.
Leak Detection
Fiber optic leak detection is part of modern Safety Instrument-ed Systems (SIS), integrated in plant DCS / SCADA, enabling to meet requirements set by hazard and operability (HAZOP) analysis.
Optical Fiber Sensing Solution for Pipeline Inspection
While oil and gas pipelines are generally secure, they can incur significant losses if damaged by a third party. Therefore, pipeline inspection is an important task to ensure pipeline security.
