Ensuring The Future Of Distribution Safety Operations.
For 15 years I worked at Gas Research Institute (GRI) in safety research, attempting to develop improvements in distribution operations such as leak surveying, leak pinpointing, pipe location (as it relates to promptness of leak location and repair) and odorant monitoring. During that period, I witnessed the evolution of operations, like leak surveying, from vegetation surveying to the recently commercialized Optical Methane Detector (OMD). In the future, other new and advanced technologies, such as laser remote sensing, will produce even greater benefits for utilities. In what follows, I will describe how these advanced technologies were assessed at GRI and what will be their...
