Gas filled pipelines monitoring using multipoint vibroacoustic sensing
eni S.p.A. has promoted and supported a research project (DIONISIO) for the design of a proprietary pipeline monitoring system, exploiting negative pressure waves and statistical analysis principles. A discrete network of pressure and vibration sensors are installed on the pipeline, at relative dist...
