Line 06 · Magnetic Flux Leakage Detector
MFL inline inspection service
The technology delivered as a service: full MFL surveys of 8–56 inch lines — mobilisation, run, analysis and report — for operators who need the data, not the tool fleet.
Not every operator should own inspection tools. The MFL inline inspection service delivers the survey itself: online non-destructive testing of pipelines using MFL technology, avoiding the production losses of shutdown-based inspection — the service description states an inspection efficiency improvement of 40–60% — with automated report generation that reduces document processing time by 90% compared with manual reporting.
Precision and reliability come from multi-sensor fusion and adaptive filtering algorithms, with magnetic leakage signal recognition accuracy of +/-5 cm, supporting complex rust and crack detection. The service is non-destructive and adaptive: no cutting or opening of the line is required for the inspection itself.
The published identification range defines the report you receive: metal loss defects such as internal and external wall corrosion and mechanical damage; cracks and abnormal defects in welds; pipeline characteristics such as circumferential welds, bends and lengths; and valves, tees and other pipeline installations — across a specification range of 8 to 56 inches. Operators who later want their own fleet can move to the inline inspection tools with programme experience already in hand.
Core technology on record
- Efficiency and automation — online NDT without shutdown losses (stated 40–60% efficiency improvement); automated report generation (stated 90% document time reduction).
- Precision and reliability — multi-sensor fusion + adaptive filtering; +/-5 cm signal recognition accuracy.
- Non-destructive and adaptive — no cutting or opening of the pipeline for inspection.

What to confirm for your project
- A service quotation needs your line data: diameter, length, product, launcher/receiver facilities and last survey history.
- Agree the report format and defect classification standard before mobilisation — automated reporting is fast only when the template is fixed.
- Ask about the service scope and schedule for your line, and how a multi-line programme would be quoted, when you send the line data.
Buyer questions
What sizes does the service cover?
8 to 56 inches, identifying metal loss, cracks and weld anomalies, plus pipeline features (welds, bends, lengths) and installations (valves, tees).
Do we have to shut down the line?
The service is online non-destructive testing designed to avoid shutdown production losses — the published efficiency improvement is 40–60% over shutdown-based approaches.
What do we receive at the end?
An automatically generated inspection report built from the run data, with defects recognised at +/-5 cm accuracy and classified across the published identification range.
