    T.D. Williamson (TDW) completed the first inline inspection of a pipeline in Kenya using their multiple dataset (MDS) technology, which incorporates multiple inspection technologies into a single run. The inspection was of a 20 inch, 450km refined products pipeline between Mombasa and Nairobi owned by Kenya Pipeline Company. Prior to the inspection, TDW and a partner cleaned the pipeline to avoid issues that could degrade data quality. The inspection established a baseline to identify integrity threats such as damage or corrosion.

    T.D. Williamson (TDW), the global pipeline solutions provider, completed its first inline
    inspection (ILI) in Kenya using TDW multiple dataset (MDS) technology.

    The MDS platform incorporates a variety of inspection technologies on a single platform. It is


    widely accepted as the most comprehensive system on the market to identify integrity threats
    through a single inline inspection run.

    TDW performed the inspection on a new, 20 in. diameter refined multi-product transmission
    pipeline that runs 450 km (279 miles) from Mombasa to Nairobi. The pipeline is owned and
    operated by the Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC). The goal of the operation was to provide a
    baseline measurement to determine any threats that may impact future integrity, including
    mechanical damage, illegal hot taps, selective seam weld corrosion and material property
    changes such as hard spots.

    Prior to the MDS inspection, TDW and its Egyptian Channel Partner Engineering Petroleum
    Services (EPS) cleaned the pipeline to avoid potential ILI tool performance issues that can
    degrade inspection data. They performed 12 cleaning and gauging runs on the 450 km (279 mi)
    of pipeline, totalling 3600 km (2237 miles) of cleaning.

    TDW Project Manager Jamie Bull oversaw the cleaning, gauging and inspection operations.
    Each achieved 100% success.

    According to TDW Sales Manager Mohamed Hesham, the inspection prepared the pipeline to
    meet demand for petroleum products in Kenya and the region for years to come.
