Enhancing Pipeline Integrity Data Management through Power BI and PI Dashboard Approach
Abstract With ageing facilities, maintaining integrity of the pipeline via proactive maintenance becomes vital to reduce the operation risk level and zero harm to surroundings. Data-centered approach allows stakeholders to prioritize critical assets, allocate resources efficiently, and ensures proactive measures to maintain the integrity. The novel approach present success story of integrating massive data that affects the pipeline integrity by providing visionary analysis of all findings from different used inspection techniques, as a result it prioritizes inspection and repair program with minimizing downtime and disruptions due to unpredicted damage and defect, through utilizing available digital resources. This paper presents an innovative approach to of data management and interpretation in the oil and gas industry: ensuring integrity, safe, and reliable operation of the critical pipelines as part of Oxy management system. The focus lies on introducing advanced data analytics through the implementation of a Microsoft Power BI visualization and OSI PI dashboards. This by integrating real-time Integrity Operating Windows (IOW) WITH inspection reports to address potential damage mode affecting segment of a pipeline. The tool accelerates maintenance program via data-driven decision making, by proactive identification of potential issues and leak points that affect the environment to ensure not leaving any barrel behind. The tool starts by examining the latest two In Line Inspection (ILI) reports via aligning common features such as joint number and distance of defect from the weld to illustrates differences in wall thickness and pitting depth of reported anomalies in the pipeline. Then, the data integrated with pipeline layout (topography) and other Cathodic Protection (CP) surveys, such as ON Off survey, Direct Current Voltage Gradient (DCVG) and Close-Interval Potential Survey (CIPS), so that condition and defects aligned with pipeline chainage. On the other side, the tool also gathers data for corrosion inhibitor treatment program performance, readings of bacteria, corrosion coupons, basic sediment, and water (%BS&W) and integrity operating windows (IOW). The dataset correlated to create Power BI and PI dashboards that effectively communicates operational and statistical data points through informative graphs and simplified tables, providing deep overview of the pipeline's operational condition and up-to date results from related datasets.
