Dig Verification Program

Pipeline inspections often turn up hundreds of defects but knowing which anomalies require remediation — and how soon it’s needed — isn’t always clear cut.

As part of your comprehensive and systematic integrity management program, ÍòÄÌÔ° performs multistep dig verification to confirm that in-line inspection (ILI) data matches actual defects. That helps you eliminate guesswork and make knowledge-based decisions to protect your assets.

The ÍòÄÌÔ° dig verification program includes:

  • Performing an inspection based on your line condition, schedule and budget
  • Reporting preliminary results
  • Doing in-ditch verification — a vital step in ensuring tool accuracy
  • Analyzing results
  • Reporting specific findings so you can prioritize repair or replacement

This continual feedback loop helps improve tool accuracy over time, allowing ÍòÄÌÔ° to make slight changes in technology, improve future integrity runs and validate processes.
