Canada is a large country with huge amounts of natural resources, including oil and gas. The distribution of these resources for internal use as well as for exportation requires various kinds of infrastructure, including pipelines. In this project, the research group of the Advanced Photonic Components laboratory at Carleton University will team up with Canadian company Shawcor to develop a cost-effective optical fiber based sensor network to be installed along pipelines for the purpose of triggering alarms in the unlikely event of a leak in the system. Continuous passive monitoring of the sensor network will result in the immediate identification of leak occurrences and position, thereby enabling rapid remediation of any breach of the pipeline in question and minimizing any impact of the breach. The technology to be used is based on a class of optical fiber sensors that was invented and developed at Carleton, and on the vast experience of industrial partner Shawcor in pipeline integrity and safety systems.

加拿大是一个拥有大量自然资源的大国，包括石油和天然气。分配这些资源供国内使用和出口需要各种基础设施，包括管道。在该项目中，卡尔顿大学先进光子元件实验室的研究小组将与加拿大公司Shawcor合作开发一种具有成本效益的光纤传感器网络，该网络将安装在管道上，以便在系统发生泄漏时触发警报。 传感器网络的连续被动监测将导致泄漏发生和位置的立即识别，从而能够快速补救所讨论的管道的任何破裂并最小化破裂的任何影响。所使用的技术基于卡尔顿公司发明和开发的一类光纤传感器，以及工业合作伙伴Shawcor在管道完整性和安全系统方面的丰富经验。
