Leading Manufacturer AP Sensing is the leading manufacturer of Distributed Optical Sensing Systems. We
serve several critical applications, such as Oil & Gas Reservoir Monitoring, special hazard
of Distributed Optical Sensing Fire Detection, High Voltage Power Cable Monitoring and Pipeline Monitoring.
Systems & Solutions
AP Sensing was founded on the heritage of HP / Agilent, the market leader in fiber optic test
& measurement. With thousands of installations we monitor millions of meters of critical
infrastructure. Our fiber optic sensing technology such as DAS (Distributed Acoustic
Sensing) and DTS (Distributed Temperature Sensing) are known for their outstanding
quality, reliability and performance.
With our expertise in the applications, project management and well engineered
solutions we are proud to monitor prestigious and challenging projects such as:
• Eurotunnel (longest subsea tunnel in the world)
• World’s longest High Voltage Subsea XLPE cable between Lithuania and Sweden
• The world’s first permanent combined installations of DTS & DAS for Horn Rev 3 and
Kriegers Flak (Denmark)
• Germany’s largest oilfield and critical pipeline running through a national park
• Fukushima Ground Freezing Pipelines – monitoring of freezing process in the highly

radiated environment
• Sulfur Pipelines with heat tracing (UAE)
Our capabilities go beyond fiber optic sensing. With SmartVision, we can integrate other
sensors and LDS systems such as Mass Balance, Negative Pressure Wave LDS,
providing a comprehensive view on critical infrastructure.
Fibre Optic Sensing Our technology uses fiber optic cables as the sensing element, to monitor the entire
Technology: pipeline length from just a few centimeters away. The fiber is completely passive,
immune to EMI and non-intrusive.
The perfect fit for pipelines
Applications: DTS (Distributed Temperature Sensing)
• Pipeline leakage detection/location for gases, water, cooled water, liquid
hydrocarbons, LNG, LGP and multiphase pipelines
• Pipeline rupture and ignition detection of natural gas pipelines
• Temperature monitoring of pipe wall temperature for heated pipelines like sulphur,
heavy crude or bitumen
• Leak detection of multiphase gathering lines
SmartVision features
• Integrated management solution
• Asset visualization for complete overview 24/7
• Reporting and analysis capabilities
• Alarm management
• Central database
• Easy integration into control and management
