Inspection Technology

With Alberta experiencing one of the wettest summers in previous decades, standing groundwater and increased moisture in the soil present a bigger than ever threat to pipelines. Left undetected and untreated, soil-side corrosion can cause significant damage to your line, including cracks, leaks, and catastrophic failures. Learn how to spot early signs of damage, as well as the value of regular inspections below.

In-line inspection tools make it possible to evaluate the condition of your plant piping or pipeline with ease, allowing for proactive repairs that save time and money and can extend the life of the pipe indefinitely.
