Pipeline Infrastructure Management

The cost of maintaining a pipeline company’s key assets - gas transmission facilities - represents a significant portion of the annual operating budget. Most pipeline operators allocate considerable resources to keeping their records current and accurate to ensure the integrity of their system. Intergraph’s pipeline infrastructure management (PIM) solutions enable pipeline companies to efficiently manage and record their principal infrastructure assets and manage, improve work processes, and demonstrate a comprehensive integrity program, while reducing the cost of maintaining these records by storing them in a central database. This makes this information readily available for a variety of applications, potentially improving record keeping productivity by more than 50 percent while assuring compliance with regulatory requirements.

Intergraph also provides solutions to assist in the implementation of Distribution Integrity Management Programs (DIMP). These solutions include Field Automation, Gas Infrastructure Management, and Enterprise Web Portal.
