I’m pleased to follow Fortin Pipelines' previous announcement by noting that we have completed our first collaborative test campaign. Performed by Pump & Flow for a Fortin Pipelines client, the #laboratory testwork involved slurry characterisation for one of #Australia’s premier long-distance slurry pipelines. With the right interpretation, our results will enable operational improvements and inform meaningful #riskassessment and cost reduction strategies. We are confident that we have achieved exactly that, with this being just the first of many such campaigns. What’s the reasoning between the strategic alliance? Between Fortin Pipelines and Pump & Flow, we cover all manner of piping and pipelines within the #mineral extraction industry. Fortin Pipelines is recognised within high profile transport #pipeline projects across the globe, while Pump & Flow has focused on supporting individual site #operations, from dewatering through to tailings. The overlap is most evident in our shared perspectives, including: a)     The market is being underserved by incumbents. b)     We offer Australia’s most comprehensive and dedicated testing facility for slurry handling and transport. c)     Combining our lab resources to perform original, innovative research will benefit and empower our #mining clients. If you’d like to find out more, please reach out. #operationalexcellence #miningnews #miningengineering

We at Fortin Pipelines are incredibly excited to announce our collaboration with Pump & Flow, a strategic partnership that brings #pipeline reliability to new heights through the expansion of our Perth #laboratory facility. Led by founder and director Nick Chiknaikin, Pump & Flow offers design, supply, construction and commissioning capabilities for pipeline and pumping system optimisation. Our joint testwork facility is a world-first within the #miningindustry, now one of the largest of its kind and fully equipped with the most cutting-edge erosion and #corrosion modelling technology.   As Nick and I have often discussed, aspiring to be leaders within the industry requires a commitment to continuous improvement, growth and innovation. #Innovation can take on a variety of forms, such as developing new products or services, improving processes or systems, implementing the latest #technology or collaborating with passionate, like-minded #engineers that can broaden, progress and strengthen existing resources. We are beyond proud of this partnership and the ability to leverage one another’s capabilities, contributing to even greater pipeline and pumping system #resilience than ever before. #engineeringdesign #miningnews #pipelineintegrity #miningengineering

ASOE = Alternative Semi-Structural Operating Envelope A specific approach within the field of trenchless technology and pipeline rehabilitation. It represents a design philosophy and operational framework for installing liners or repairing pipelines without traditional excavation methods. ASOE involves using liners or other rehabilitation methods that provide enough support to ensure the pipeline continues to function safely and efficiently. This is done without requiring the liner to bear the entire structural load, thereby allowing the existing pipeline to continue playing a significant role in the system's integrity. This approach can be particularly useful in situations where the existing pipeline has some remaining structural value but needs reinforcement to handle specific operational demands or environmental conditions.

PROJECT SUCCESS | Holistic structural assessment using WELLCAT prevented costly repairs and unnecessary shut-ins for a client in the UK North Sea. 🔧 The Challenge: An installation error caused centralisers on an HPHT platform conductor to misalign with the guide cans. This posed a risk of thermal growth during production, potentially leading to lack of support and instability of the well. 🔍 Our Solution: Our team conducted a thorough assessment of all scenarios and discovered that no remediation was needed. The production pressures and temperatures were sufficient to place the conductor into tension, maintaining stability. In non-production scenarios, thermal growth was minimal, ensuring centralisers remained within the guide cans. 💡 The Impact: By incorporating WELLCAT results, we identified that costly remedial work was unnecessary, highlighting the importance of comprehensive analysis.

When people hear about Geolantis, they think it’s a tool for land surveying. But it was designed with a different focus: Utility mapping. While survey tools focus on property boundaries, Geolantis is all about making utility work faster, safer, and more efficient. How? In four ways: 1. Real-time updates Crews need instant, accurate data on underground assets to dig safely and stay on schedule. Geolantis.360 delivers live updates in the field, ensuring teams work with the latest information. 2. SUE-focused Geolantis meets the needs of subsurface utility engineers (SUE), prioritizing the identification of utilities to prevent strikes—not boundary mapping. 3. Collaborative workflows Built for teamwork, it allows seamless data sharing among field crews, engineers, and project managers. Everyone stays on the same page, which is essential for safe, efficient utility work. 4. Utility-specific features Customizable symbology lets teams easily visualize water, gas, or telecom lines—critical for avoiding conflicts and ensuring safety. If you’re in the business of digging, building, or maintaining underground utilities, that’s where Geolantis truly shines.
