Advanced Security and Reliability Using IoT and Artificial Intelligence in Gas Pipeline & Distribution Networks

How IoT (Internet of Things) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies work together to detect, prevent, and respond to theft, robbery, and leaks in gas pipeline supply and distribution systems, including both technical methods, infrastructure components

1. Problem Landscape: What Are the Risks?

Before diving into the technologies, it’s important to understand the real threats:

Physical Threats:

Illegal gas tapping by drilling into the pipeline for free gas.

Meter tampering or bypass to avoid billing.

Siphoning from city gate or regulator stations.

Pipeline puncturing due to excavation, vandalism, or sabotage.

Corrosion-induced leaks from aging pipelines.

Operational Threats:

Undetected leaks due to poor instrumentation.

Lack of data at remote segments leads to slow response.

Manual inspection delays.

Data manipulation in metering at custody transfer points.
