CHALLENGE Statoil required a baseline survey of their new Polarled gas pipeline as part of the commissioning process. When working with gas pipelines, inline inspections (ILI) identifying corrosion are typically completed with magnetic flux leakage (MFL) technology due to the absence of a liquid coupling medium. However, MFL depth sizing accuracy is reduced in direct proportion to the pipe wall thickness. This pipeline has a varying wal
