The paper demonstrates how integrating process cameras with AI-based analytics delivers measurable gains in reliability, availability, and maintainability for gas processing operations. By combining live video evidence with process data, operators can detect contamination early, act proactively, and prevent costly compressor damage. The study, conducted on a major offshore gas processing platform, showed how real-time imaging revealed upstream performance issues that conventional instrumentation failed to identify.
Paul Stockwell, Managing Director of Process Vision, commented: “Our paper for ADIPEC 2025 highlights how process cameras close the gap between theoretical dewpoint data and actual operating conditions. For the first time, operators can see inside their pipelines and act before a problem escalates. It’s not just about preventing failures; it’s about unlocking new performance and profitability from assets that already exist.”
Joining Paul at the show will be Dr David Fairclough, Process Vision’s Technical Director, who added: “ADIPEC brings together some of the most forward-thinking minds in the energy industry. Exhibiting alongside AIMS Oil and Gas Equipment Trading allows us to showcase how our combined expertise is supporting operators across the Middle East to achieve operational excellence, asset integrity, and true digital transformation.”
Visitors can meet the team in Hall 1 – Stand No. 1114 to explore Process Vision’s technologies:
- LineVu: A hazardous-area rated process camera that delivers live video from inside high-pressure gas lines, revealing mist, stratified liquids, and unexpected flow behavior that traditional measurements can miss. Operators use LineVu to verify phase separator performance, protect compressors and meters, avoid unplanned outages, and support efficient maintenance scheduling.
