Velonix™: intelligent automation for safer, cleaner, and more reliable pipeline operations

Sustainable performance through intelligent flow control and partnership

Expro’s Velonix™ pipeline inspection gauge (PIG) system is improving pipeline pigging with digital automated control, reducing emissions, enhancing safety, and increasing reliability. 

Our Velonix™ optimized pig control system has emerged as a key technology in transforming pipeline integrity management, enabling operators to reduce emissions, improve safety, and optimize performance.

Velonix™ uses advanced SONAR measurement and automated closed-loop flow control to maintain precise pig velocity during pipeline inspection. Replacing manual intervention with real-time automated adjustments ensures consistent inspection speeds, improves data accuracy, reduces expensive re-runs, and supports safer pipeline operations.

Velonix™ has helped clients avoid 69,000 tonnes of CO₂e through transitioning from cold venting to flaring, reduced 3,000 tonnes of CO₂e via optimized pressure control, saved $187,000 in natural gas waste, and potentially saved $1.1 million by avoiding an in-line inspection re-run.
