Using industry-leading Trimble survey equipment, we will provide at minimum a two-person crew to perform AGM GPS Survey to your required specifications. Our equipment is accurate to all surveyed points, including Valve Locations, Above Ground Marker (AGM) locations, and other points - marking all locations for future reference. A comprehensive reporting package includes location coordinates, Google Earth mapping, site access directions, site photographs, and other important data to access all locations.

The AGM/Valve survey data undergoes an extensive QA/QC process and the resulting dataset forms the basis of the pig tracking task. Pig trackers are given all site data, navigable files to find the AGM & Valve locations, site photographs, and written directions to ensure they are able to deploy AGM boxes supplied by the tool vendor at the required locations. Aspen uses modern pig tracking equipment utilizing ELF/Mag tracking receivers and geophones to confidently track the pigs.

We provide fully mobile tool cleaning and decontamination services following pipeline inspection runs. Our technicians deploy a self-contained decontamination unit directly to the site, equipped with portable containment systems designed for washing and flushing inline inspection (ILI), caliper, deformation, and cleaning tools. All wash water and pipeline residue are captured and removed from the containment, then transferred into sealed barrels for proper handling. Aspen Integrity can manage transportation and disposal of all waste materials, or coordinate with the pipeline operator as required. In addition, our team is equipped to perform NORM (Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material) testing to ensure safe handling and compliance before tools are released for transport.

Following the completion of the inline inspection runs and after the ILI provide has delivered the final anomaly report(s), Aspen Integrity can provide an anomaly survey crew to locate and mark the proposed anomaly excavation locations. During the excavation, the Aspen crew can record photos, location measurements, and, if necessary, additional GPS coordinate information for the dig locations.
