Internal Corrosion Monitoring and Prevention on Pipelines and Vessels | Wi-Corr

Ultrasonic wall thickness tracking for early intervention and risk reduction

We implement Wi-Corr as a scalable, wireless monitoring system to deliver continuous visibility of internal corrosion and erosion on critical assets. Rather than relying on periodic spot checks, it provides consistent condition data and early warnings when metal loss behaviour begins to accelerate, supporting timely intervention before integrity limits are approached.

Sensor outputs are processed through the Wi-Corr TREND software platform, which applies analytics to trend metal-loss rates, estimate remaining service life, and highlight locations exhibiting elevated degradation. The platform supports corrosion/erosion rate calculations, probability-of-failure outputs, and clear risk visualisation to prioritise follow-up inspection and maintenance. This equips teams with actionable information to reduce manual inspection demand, limit exposure to hazardous conditions, and minimise unplanned downtime driven by internal wall loss.

Our Wi-Corr UT systems offers visibility over asset condition as it provides continuous ultrasonic wall thickness monitoring on live pipelines and vessels without shutdowns, hot work or scaffolding with wireless transceivers and non-intrusive sensors.

The Wi-Corr UT-QUAD is a high-performance wireless ultrasonic system that supports up to four wall thickness sensors and one temperature probe. The sensors are bonded or clamped directly to live assets and can be installed permanently or temporarily.

With a monitoring range of 3mm to 60mm, this system captures high-resolution data to help track metal loss and erosion trends in real time.

Wi-Corr UT-Quad offers:

High-resolution ultrasonic wall thickness monitoring (3mm to 60mm)

Trend analysis of metal loss and erosion rates through the TREND platform

Certified for explosive atmospheres and compatible with HART/LoRa protocols.

Wi-Corr UT-Quad can be used for small-scale localised monitoring or large assets and enhances plant safety by detecting degradation trends before they reach critical levels thus preventing leaks, ruptures and emergency repairs.
