Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL)

Screenshot from pipeline inspection data with Magnetic Flux Leakage Technology (MFL)

Technology Type

mfl-icon

Detection Capabilities

Metal Loss Anomalies
  • General Corrosion
  • Pitting Corrosion
  • Spiral Weld Metal Loss
  • Girth Weld Metal Loss
  • Circumferential Crack
  • Girth Weld Crack
Construction Anomalies
  • Close Metal Objects
Construction-Weld Anomalies
  • Arc Strike

High resolution magnetic flux leakage (MFL) technology provides accurate detection and sizing of metal loss and internal versus external discrimination to help operators remain in regulatory compliance and extend their pipeline system's useful life.

Key Features

  • Can be combined with other technologies to minimize the number of inspection tool runs
  • 4-inch, 6-inch and 8-inch tools are improved to be shorter, lighter and produce less drag than previous tool designs

Sizes

4-inch through 22-inch
