Pedal to the metal: how machine learning (ML) is optimizing gas pipeline operations

The availability of cloud computing has made it feasible to run complex pipeline simulations quickly, which has allowed machine learning to be introduced to gas transmission and distribution networks, but can machine learning overcome the challenges of a gas pipeline operation?

Applying simulation software solutions to Latin American pipeline challenges

Pipeline simulation software can help engineers answer important questions and make informed decisions. For complex pipeline networks contending with a range of challenges, the installation of a simulation suite can alleviate pipeline operators’ concerns. In this article, Atmos International’s (Atmos) CEO and Founder Jun Zhang discusses how Atmos SIM can overcome a range of challenges specific to pipelines operating in Latin America.

16 takeaways from Atmos’ 2023 User Conference

Atmos International held a user conference to share our latest innovations in pipeline leak detection, theft detection and simulation software. We brought together our clients from across the world to reveal the latest technologies we’d been working on in a series of presentations delivered by our in-house subject matter experts. Here are the takeaways.

A conversation with Harry Smith

In this conversation with our Sales and Senior Research Engineer, Harry Smith discusses his journey at Atmos, his progression towards becoming a subject matter expert in pipeline theft detection and what he enjoys most about working at Atmos.

Parametric studies and the power of Atmos SIM

A parametric study is a series of automated simulations where the input parameters and constraints can change according to user requirement. They can create a forecast for the pipeline’s future operations and enable pipeline operators to evaluate the results. In this blog, Senior Simulation Consultant John Anderton looks at two case examples in which a parametric study paired with Atmos Simulation Suite (SIM) can be used to optimize pipeline operations: the cases of an emergency shut-down procedure and a network capacity analysis.
