Asset documentation with the Smallworld GIS

Complex Structures Require Efficient Management 

The Smallworld™ GIS works with a number of integrated applications to form a modern asset database that supports technical business processes in the energy sector.

GE’S Global Transmission Office (GTO)

A complete set of asset data for all pipelines and stations, fittings and appurtenances can be leveraged to support pipeline operators’ business processes. The geographic information system Smallworld™ GIS is a market leader in scalable data management and process support with its integrated datastore and unique topology-based technology.

In-line inspection data and data from CP close interval surveys can be stored in GTO and facilitate further data analysis and assessment functions. Asset data can be displayed in the map on any type of internal or official background layer according to national and international standards and to the requirements of regulatory bodies or mining authorities. Asset data can be used to calculate profile views, lists of pipeline components, alignment sheets and plots in all scales.

Schematic plans can also be managed in GTO to support operational and dispatching tasks. Activity management functions help optimize and document maintenance and inspection tasks.

BENEFITS AT A GLANCE

Company-wide acceptance made easy through implementation of the international PODS standard

Wide range of analysis and reporting functionality

Low customization effort, high-quality out-of-the-box functionality

Integration options for assessment and network calculation tools

GE’S Gas Distribution Office (GDO)

A complete set of asset data for all pipelines and stations, fittings and appurtenances can be leveraged to support distribution companies’ business processes. The geographic information system Smallworld™ GIS is a market leader in scalable data management and process support with its integrated datastore and unique topology-based technology.

The asset data can be used for static and dynamic network calculations as well as for managing inspection activities in the field. Asset data can be displayed in the map on official city plans or other background layers in compliance with applicable standards.

Activity management functions help optimize and document maintenance and inspection tasks as well as outage management. GDO offers functionality to model outages based on topological network tracing
