Tri-D Dynamics Inc. and Marubeni-Itochu Steel Inc. plan to develop smart pipes, like the one pictured above, that will integrate sensors and electronics to enable digital supply chain tracking and bring the benefits of digitally-connected infrastructure to the energy industry.
Embedded sensors and electronics will enable digital tracking of the pipes, called Oil Country Tubular Goods, or OCTG, over their lifecycle - from fabrication at the mill to transportation, storage and incorporation into the wellbore. The partnership will provide Exploration and Production (E&P) customers with increased accuracy, reliability, transparency and efficiency for one of the most critical pieces of well infrastructure.
