METHOD OF MONITORING PIPELINE (VERSIONS) Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC F17D5/06 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the diagnosis of the technical pipeline condition and can be used for emergency warning and monitoring of the technical pipeline condition. The monitored parameters are measured using the monitoring system elements installed on the pipeline, transmitting signals from the elements of the monitoring system to the control points and the monitoring system server, where they are stored, the current state and forecast are calculated. The elements of the monitoring system are installed continuously along the pipe either locally or on an anticorrosive coating, or in places with a remote part of the anticorrosive coating - on a steel pipe. Then the anticorrosion coating in these places is repaired, after which the quality of the repaired coating is checked. On top of the assembled structure, a protective shell is installed, which is centered with respect to the pipe, pouring end caps are installed, and a concrete mix is pumped into the shell space of the assembled structure. The second version provides a method for installing magnetic markers on the pipeline to determine the coordinates of the pipe metal defects.

EFFECT: increased reliability, the location and the installation sequence of the monitoring system sensors are determined.
