Sustainable automated pipeline construction development for MASIP

可持续管道系统有限公司正在为管道基础设施的安装开发改变游戏规则的新技术，该技术在管道制造过程中将分布式传感器整合到螺旋形配置中，以提供本质上智能的管道(IPIPE)。自动化移动制造系统(Masip)可以将管道安装总成本减半，对环境的影响减少一半以上，并极大地改善管道安装的物流。以这种方式建造的管道在长距离运输(和存储)大量能源(以气体或液体形式)方面发挥着重要作用，为净零HGV、火车和一般天然气输送使用提供基础基础设施。通过在更高的压力下与氢气一起使用这些材料，可以在能源组合中实现较低的碳强度。我们的螺旋缠绕光纤创新引入了实时连续监测的前景，为未来的管道网络提供了一个数字平台。该项目解决了一个巨大的全球陆上管道市场，市场研究估计，到2025年，这个市场将超过500亿美元。可以说，传统的人工管道建设和完整性监测过程不再可持续。可持续管道建设和监测技术的可获得性将是采用氢气作为供暖和工业电力能源载体的关键促成因素。如果没有广泛的氢燃料，那么即使到2050年，重型运输和工业流程以及家庭供暖都不太可能达到净零气候法规。许多政府目标和行业目标(包括国家电网最近发布的未来能源情景2020)都认识到了这一点，这些目标旨在未来几年开发一些氢气项目。这是一项真正具有颠覆性的技术，将在英国发展自己的供应链，为未来创造许多高技能工作岗位。该项目还在国际市场上提供了大规模的机会。该项目将专注于能够实现移动制造过程自动化和规模化所需的核心技术和制造创新

SUSTAINABLE PIPELINE SYSTEMS LTD is developing game changing new technology for the installation of pipeline infrastructure that incorporates distributed sensors in a spiral configuration during manufacture of the pipe to provide an intrinsically intelligent pipe (iPIPE). An automated mobile manufacturing system (MASIP) offers to halve total installed pipeline cost, more than halve the environmental impact and greatly improve the logistics of pipeline installation.Pipelines constructed in this way have a major role to play to transport (and store) vast quantities of energy (in gas or liquid form) over large distances, delivering the underlying infrastructure for net zero HGV, Train as well as general gas transmission use. By using these at higher pressures with Hydrogen, a lower carbon intensity can be achieved in the energy mix. Our spiral wound optical fibre innovation introduces the prospect of real time continuous monitoring to provide a digital platform for the pipeline network of the future.The project addresses a huge global market for onshore pipelines which market research has estimated to exceed $50bn by 2025\. It can be argued that the conventional manual pipeline construction and integrity monitoring processes are no longer sustainable. The availability of sustainable pipeline construction and monitoring technology will be a critical enabling factor in the introduction of hydrogen gas as an energy carrier for heating and industrial power. Without widespread hydrogen fuel then heavy transport and industrial processes as well as domestic heating are all unlikely to be able to meet net zero climate regulations even by 2050\. This is recognised in a number of government targets and industry objectives (including National Grid's recently published Future Energy Scenarios 2020) which aim to develop a number of hydrogen projects over the next few years.This offers to be genuinely disruptive technology that will develop its own supply chain in the UK creating many highly skilled jobs for the future. The project also offers large scale opportunities in the international market place.This project will focus on the core technical and manufacturing innovations needed to be able to automate and scale up the mobile manufacturing process
