Pipeline Integrity & Operational Support System

Connect pipeline integrity, operations and maintenance to location.

A GIS-based pipeline asset intelligence system that unifies network assets, inspections, integrity findings, operational events, risks, maintenance requirements, documents and expenditure in one spatial operating picture.

Why it matters

Move from scattered information to an operational picture.

The system is designed around the decisions infrastructure teams need to make every day: what exists, where it is, what condition it is in, what requires attention and what happened next.

01

Integrity data lives in silos

Connect pipeline geometry, components, inspections, defects, documents and maintenance history instead of searching across separate repositories.

02

Risk is difficult to visualise

Show integrity findings and operational risk along the route so teams can see clusters, critical sections and nearby context.

03

Operational support is reactive

Turn condition and event information into planned interventions, accountable actions and management visibility.

Core capabilities

Built around the full information lifecycle.

Modules can be adapted to the organisation's asset hierarchy, terminology, inspection methods, decision rules and reporting requirements.

01

Pipeline GIS register

Maintain routes, segments, valves, stations, crossings, servitudes and related components in a spatial asset model.

02

Integrity inspections

Capture inspection observations, anomalies, corrosion, coating or other client-defined findings against exact pipeline assets and locations.

03

Defect history

Track integrity findings from discovery through review, mitigation, repair and closure with evidence retained over time.

04

Risk & criticality

Combine condition, consequence, location, operational importance and client rules to support risk-based prioritisation.

05

Operational events

Link incidents, alarms, outages or operational events to the affected network section and asset history.

06

Maintenance planning

Create planned and corrective maintenance actions with owners, due dates, status, cost and completion records.

07

Document intelligence

Attach drawings, inspection reports, photographs, certificates and reference documents to the correct asset or location.

08

Management dashboards

Summarise integrity backlog, risk profile, inspection status, work progress and expenditure across the pipeline network.

Operating workflow

One clear path from information to action.

Every module is designed to preserve the connection between the source evidence, the asset, the decision and the resulting work.

01Register

Build the pipeline and component asset model in GIS.

02Inspect

Capture integrity findings and operational observations.

03Assess

Evaluate condition, risk, criticality and required action.

04Maintain

Plan repairs, mitigation, maintenance and follow-up.

05Govern

Track history, cost, documents, status and reporting.

System structure

Designed as a connected infrastructure data stack.

The platform can start with a focused use case and grow over time. The architecture separates field capture, structured data, GIS, business logic, integration and reporting so each part can evolve without turning the system into a monolith.

01Experience layer

Responsive web interfaces, field forms, dashboards and reporting.

02Application & API layer

Business rules, workflows, authentication, integrations and automation.

03Data layer

Structured relational data, asset history, documents and audit records.

04Spatial layer

GIS geometry, network context, mapping, spatial queries and location intelligence.

05Integration layer

Existing enterprise systems, IoT feeds, imports, exports and BI tools.

What the client gains

Infrastructure decisions with a clearer evidence trail.

Risk-based maintenance priorities
Stronger operational traceability
Consolidated technical evidence
SpatialWorks Consulting

Build the system around your actual infrastructure.

We can configure the asset model, GIS, workflows, database, integrations, dashboards and reporting around your organisation instead of forcing your processes into a generic template.
