Additional PinPoint System Installed On High Consequence Pipeline - Sour Gas Pipeline With Pitting Corrosion Utilizes PinPoint

Toronto - Fiber Optic Systems Technology, Inc., a developer and manufacturer of patented non-intrusive sensing systems, recently announced the sale and installation of another PinPoint Remote Monitoring Station (RMS) to an independent oil & gas exploration, production and operating company. The system has been positioned at a strategic location in a well established sour gas field to monitor corrosion within a High Consequence Area. The PinPoint System, which utilizes online monitoring and remote data access, allows the operating company to safely maintain throughput and actively assess risk levels without disrupting product flow.

Mr. Sam Cauchi, Director of Sales for FOX-TEK said, "This particular sale is important to FOX-TEK as one of our early fiber optic sensor clients has now expanded our contract to include PinPoint for corrosion monitoring". He continued, "This would not have been possible had FOX-TEK not established a reputation synonymous with first-class service, support and valuable hard results". This particular client in the past has utilized FOX-TEK's fiber optic technology for monitoring pipeline deformation in geotechnically-unstable locations, and now represents another company using FOX-TEK's innovative PinPoint Sensor Sleeve with new Spring-Loaded Pin technology.
