1 NDT SOLUTIONS 3D SCANNING SOLUTION FOR PIPELINE INTEGRIT Y ASSESSMENT! CODE-COMPLIAN T PORTABLE 3D MEASUREMENT SOLUTIONS

2 Pipeline operators and NDT service companies must deal with increasing pressure from regulation authorities and environmentalists to guarantee the pipeline network s integrity, while keeping maintenance costs at their lowest. There reliable, and user-friendly surface inspection tools is paramount. To meet this need, Creaform has developed the solution for pipeline integrity assessment. The solution is comprised of a Handyscan 3D portable handheld scanner and, which is a single software platform for pipeline external corrosion and mechanical damage assessment. Thanks to this unique 3D scanning technology and this innovative software, surface inspection has been completely reinvented! EXTERNAL CORROSION SOFTWARE MODULE MECHANICAL DAMAGE SOFTWARE MODULE s pipeline external corrosion software module offers very fast and reliable data processing that generates instant, on-site results. Data are output in a complete Excel report and show increased accuracy and repeatability compared to traditional measurements methods such as pit gauge, ultrasonic (UT) probes and single-line lasers. Key functionalities: Automatically-applied interaction rules. 3D and 2D color mapping with river-bottom path overlay. 2D section generation in both axis. Estimated burst pressure calculation based on ASME B31G code Corrosion depth measurement, dimensions and position on the pipe. corrosion depth measurement. Gouge and redressed gouge inspection. Point-to-point distance measurement directly in the 3D model. As its name states, this software module has been specifically developed for pipeline mechanical damage analysis. This module features numerous key functionalities that increase dent understanding and facilitate decision making. Instant results are generated on site and directly output in Excel format. Key functionalities: Radius measurement. Maximum depth measurement using straight edge technique in both directions. Automatic maximum depth detection. Automatic creation of 2D cross-sections in both directions at maximum depth. Intuitive cross-section creation tool. 3D and 2D color mapping of damaged area. Visualization tool to increase dent shape understanding. Depth-over-diameter ratio. Maximum diameter at 90 degrees of the dent. Length and width measurement for each dent. Multiple dent analysis.

3 SOLUTION DATA ACQUISITION CAN BE VIEWED IN. TRUsimplicity TM : BOTH THE SCANNING PROCESS AND THE ANALYSIS ARE INDEPENDENT FROM THE INSPECTOR S SKILLS. AND WORKING ENVIRONMENT. THAN PIT GAUGE TECHNIQUE. NO NEED FOR ENCODERS OR BULKY MECHANICAL SCANNERS TO REFERENCE THE DATA. TRUaccuracy TM : A DYNAMIC LINK BETWEEN THE PIPE AND SCANNER PRESERVES ACCURACY AND RESOLUTION IN ANY FIELD VIBRATING ENVIRONMENT. WITHIN A ± ACCURACY. RESULTS GENERATED IN A FEW MINUTES. FOLLOWS CODE REGULATION. TRUportability TM : LIGHTWEIGHT (1 KG). CAN BE CARRIED ON SITE VERY EASILY.

Using triangulation and binocular vision, the scanner can actually self-position itself to a unique dynamic referencing system on the pipeline, which ensures high repeatability and accuracy of pipeline damage assessment measurements. The resulting 3D scan is perfectly scaled to be representative of the real geometry and allows easy visualization of external corrosion defects. Creaform s solution offers two models of 3D laser scanners to choose from, depending on the required level of accuracy. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS WEIGHT 980 g (2.1 lbs.) 1.25 kg (2.75 lbs.)

5 MaxSHOT 3D TM The MaxSHOT 3D optical coordinate measuring system is a complementary product that adds photogrammetry to the wide range of 3D scanning applications. The system combines the MaxSHOT 3D photogrammetric video camera and the VXshot TM processing software, and stands out from other systems because it is so easy to use. Its user-friendly design allows even those new to photogrammetry to quickly and easily generate a high accuracy positioning model of an object based on a series of photos. The MaxSHOT 3D system generates positioning models that can be used with all Handyscan 3D scanners to determine their repositioning around the object to be scanned. Doing so, we get highly accurate data, and most especially when measuring larger parts. RELATED PRODUCT VIEWER Viewer offers new demonstration and reporting capabilities. Service companies that want to get more information on or experience its look and feel can download real case studies and visualize the results in 3D. Companies that already own and use can provide complete Excel reports displaying the analyzed 3D model to all of their customers. This represents an unprecedented amount of data now available to pipeline integrity engineers!
