Solutions for a global infrastructure challenge
A world leader in large diameter water and wastewater pipeline condition assessment, the Pressure Pipe Inspection Company (PPIC) offers forward looking solutions to help customers address aging infrastructure challenges in a reliable and cost effective manner. Our innovative services pinpoint damaged sections of a pipeline to help optimize infrastructure investments, locate leaks, reduce risk and ensure environmental compliance.
Swelling global populations, industrial growth and changing climates will continue to place enormous pressures on the world’s aging transmission lines. It is estimated that over the next 20 years, an investment of nearly half a trillion dollars will be required in the United States alone to upgrade critical pipeline infrastructure.
Operators around the world are discovering that simply replacing their pipeline assets is cost prohibitive and that advanced condition assessment services from PPIC can help them confidently make informed decisions that drastically reduce capital and operating costs.
PPIC services are trusted for:
- Prestressed Concrete Cylinder Pipe (PCCP) condition assessment
- Metallic pipe condition assessment
- Plastic and PVC pipe condition assessment
- Leak detection
- New pipeline commissioning
- Pipeline locating and mapping
- Wastewater force main condition assessment
PPIC services allow pipeline operators to identify areas of potential concern and make confident infrastructure rehabilitation decisions. By selectively rehabilitating only the individual pipe lengths where structure or mechanical integrity has been compromised, operators can realize significant savings by eliminating the unnecessary replacement of large lengths of transmission mains. This optimizes both the operating life of the asset and budget allocation for infrastructure projects.
