PIPELINE INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Introduction:-
Pipeline Information Management System (PIMS) is a web based solution, designed to monitor the construction progress on a real time basis. Data that is entered on daily basis is indexed using complex algorithms that leave no scope for discrepancies. Reports are generated in a telescopic format that helps to browse from the route map to details of each pipe laid. The solution is designed to provide real time information about pipeline laying progress during following three stages, Project Planning, Project Execution/ Construction, Operation & Maintenance. The software solution has the following features to handle, manage and query data for pipeline activities; The Pipeline Information Management System is a web based solution, designed to-

- Act as a Monitoring System.
- For Planning purpose and help in making decisions.
- Web Based Online Solution with real time progress.
- Online Report Generation.
- Archive Documents online.
- After Construction of Pipeline, use of the PIMS into Asset management System.
PIMS solution is designed to satisfy the needs across different stages of life cycle-
- Project Planning.

- Generation of S-curves on weight-age percentages.
- Generation of alignment sheet using survey data.
- Option to modify /edit alignment sheet.
- Real time pipeline laying progress monitoring.
- Monitor online, quality control records of progress.
- Monitoring of material availability & quality documents
- Uniformity of documentation & reports.
- Real-time creation of Pipe Book, weld book.
- Real-time creation of welder performance reports, pipe reconciliation reports.
- Pre-hydro test and pre-lowering compliance report generation.
- Real-time creation of Pipe Book, weld book. Simultaneous monitoring from different locations, by contractor, consultant, client.
Technical Listing:-
The software solution has the following features to handle, manage and query data for all major pipeline activities.
- Planning
- Material management from order processing to issue.
- Document control/tracking.
- S-Curve - To assess the current project status w.r.t planned schedule for each activity as well as cumulative (weightages).
- Velocity Cart: Work done for a particular activity in chainage vs week.
- Graphical Progress: To give an overview of work done in each chainage.
- Real time Web progress monitoring
