CTI-Pro - Coiled Tubing Inspection System Prototype

该合作项目的重点是为全球油田服务行业实验性开发一种紧凑、低功耗、经济实惠的连续油管（CT）检测系统原型（CTI-Pro）。CTI-Pro的目的是在井场作业中检测连续油管的缺陷，为最终用户提供连续油管完整性和剩余寿命的实时测量。这是将井场连续油管意外故障的昂贵风险降至最低，并最大限度地延长其使用寿命和生产力的关键。CTI-Pro将带来一种新产品，解决了行业对商业可用且价格合理的现场CT检测工具的迫切需求（目前仅限于一些昂贵的“服务”和笨重的设备）。CTI-Pro将基于漏磁（MFL）技术进行设计和制造，配备分布式传感器，可实现体积检测、智能检测和低功耗运行。新产品的商业开发将为主要工业合作伙伴和与其合作的其他企业提供新的收入来源，从而实现潜在的业务增长。新产品将增加现有CT检测产品的价值，并加强在全球市场的竞争力。

The focus of this collaborative project is the experimental development of a compact, low power and affordable Coiled Tubing (CT) Inspection system Prototype (CTI-Pro) for the global oil field services industry. CTI-Pro is intended to inspect defects in CT during wellsite operations to provide end users real-time measurements of CT integrity and their remaining life. This is key to minimising the expensive risks of unexpected failures of CT in wellsites, and maximising their usage life and productivity. CTI-Pro will lead to a new product, that addresses the urgent need of the industry for a commercially available and affordable on-site CT inspection tool (currently limited to few expensive "services" with heavy and cumbersome equipment). CTI-Pro will be designed and engineered based on magnetic flux leakage (MFL) technology, with distributed sensors that enable volumetric inspection, intelligent detection and low power operation. Commercial exploitation of the new product would enable potential business growth with a new source of revenue for the lead industrial partner and other businesses engaged with them. The new product will also add value to their existing CT inspection products and strengthen their competitiveness in the global market.
