FIBERBUILT PIPELINE
IMU data and insights for every pipeline.
In-line IMU combo inspections today are expensive, infrequent, and involved.
What if you could make them low-cost, frequent, and easy to implement?
Easy IMU Inspection for Effective Geohazard Monitoring
A notable rise in geohazard-related pipeline incidents in recent years has highlighted the need for more frequent IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) inspections and analysis of pipeline movement and bending strain.
IMU data inputs deliver critical insights for monitoring geohazards threats. This data has historically been incorporated into in-line inspection combo tools to measure pipeline bending strain, a critical input to determining pipeline movement over time.
However, the high cost and infrequency of in-line inspections using these advanced combo tools limits the use of IMU inspections for more frequent geohazard monitoring. When operators prioritize decisions based on past data, they may not effectively keep pace with the rate of ground movement around active pipelines—and the potential issues that could arise from earth shifts.
Fiberbuilt is working to confront these challenges head-on through the introduction of its single-body IMU Inspection Mapping Pig services.
Fiberbuilt IMU Mapping Pigs
Inspection & Monitoring for Pipeline Bending Strain
After 10 years of research and development, Fiberbuilt has perfected the single-body IMU Inspection Mapping Pig. The Fiberbuilt IMU Pig collects pipeline positional data to calculate bending strain and is as easy to run as a cleaning pig.
UNPIGGABLE SOLUTIONS
Do You Have an Unpiggable Pipeline?
We May Have a Solution You Didn’t Know Was Possible.
Extreme geometries and harsh internal environments can lead some operators to classify their lines as unpiggable after many failed attempts to pig the line. At Fiberbuilt, we have engineered pigging solutions designed for the most challenging unpiggable pipeline conditions.
If you have an unpiggable pipeline, reach out to Fiberbuilt today. Even if we weren’t your first call, we can be your last.

Monitoring Pipeline Movement & Bending Strain: Fiberbuilt’s IMU Pigs
Pipeline geohazards are naturally occurring, human-triggered, or construction related threats heavily influenced by weather, outside forces, and the earth’s movements. The increase in extreme weather events in recent years—and the related landslides, subsidence and floods—has created mounting challenges for pipeline operators and regulators alike.
