These tools run them internally, performing and recording measurements, with performance that varies according to the pig s technology. It has been developed recently an instrumented pig technology, called feller pig. This work aims to indicate factors that influence the feller pig technology performance in the detection and in the accuracy of measurement of the length, width and depth dimensions of the thickness losses on the internal surface of an oil pipeline wall under normal conditions of oil pipe inspection with pig. In this work, is made a collection of factors and an analyses of the technology based on the available literature, as well as an experiment to observe the technology and the factors operating. In the experiment, a feeler pig is used in a pipeline built in carbon steel and in operation that flows petroleum, in witch are observed areas with internal thickness losses occurred naturally. Some of these areas and their dimensions taken by automated ultra-sound scanner are compared with the ones indicated by the feller pig. Based on the data collection, on the analysis and on the experiment, the influence of factors object of this research is discussed. It is concluded that, among these, there are factors related to pipe fabrication tolerances, to wear of pig components, to internal adhesive wear of pipeline, to other pipeline damages and to technology characteristics. Finally, actions are suggested to know better, improve and define the applicability of this technology / A moderna tecnologia de materiais e de integridade estrutural de dutos pressup?e o uso de ferramentas de inspe??o denominadas pigs de inspe??o para detectar, localizar e medir comprimento, largura e profundidade das perdas de espessura de parede de dutos em servi?o enterrados ou submersos. Essas ferramentas os percorrem internamente, realizando e registrando medi??es, com desempenho que varia de acordo com a tecnologia do pig. Recentemente foi desenvolvida uma tecnologia de pig de inspe??o, chamada de pig de perfilagem. O objetivo desta pesquisa ? indicar fatores que influenciam o desempenho da tecnologia de pig de perfilagem na detec??o e na exatid?o de medi??o de comprimento, largura e profundidade de perdas de espessura na superf?cie interna da parede de um oleoduto, em condi??es normais de inspe??o de oleodutos com pig. Neste trabalho, faz-se um levantamento de tais fatores e uma an?lise desta tecnologia, baseados na literatura dispon?vel, bem como um experimento para observar a tecnologia e fatores operando. No experimento, utiliza-se um pig de perfilagem em um duto constru?do em a?o carbono e em opera??o escoando petr?leo, no qual se constata ?reas com perdas de espessura internas ocorridas naturalmente. Algumas destas ?reas e suas dimens?es, medidas por varredura de ultra-som automatizado, s?o comparadas com as indicadas pelo pig de perfilagem. Com base no levantamento, na an?lise e no experimento, discute-se a influ?ncia de fatores objetos desta pesquisa. Conclui-se que, entre estes, ocorrem fatores relacionados ? toler?ncia de fabrica??o dos tubos, ao desgaste de componentes do pig, ao desgaste adesivo interno ao duto, a outros danos no duto e a caracter?sticas da tecnologia. Por fim, s?o sugeridas a??es para conhecer melhor, aprimorar e delimitar a aplicabilidade desta tecnologia

No. of bitstreams: 1 ChristianoJMC_DISSERT.pdf: 5726380 bytes, checksum: 57b5c167cfa539dfe52a09cb70e8a00e (MD5) Previous issue date: 2013-01-14 / Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte / To enhance the maintenance practices, Oil and Gas Pipelines are inspected from the inside by automated systems called PIG (Pipeline Inspection Gauge). The inspection and mapping of defects, as dents and holes, in the internal wall of these pipelines are increasingly put into service toward an overall Structural Integrity Policy. The residual life of these structures must be determined such that minimize its probability of failure. For this reason, the investigation on the detection limits of some basic topological features constituted by peaks or valleys disposed along a smooth surface is of great value for determining the sensitivity of the measurements of defects from some combinations of circumferential, axial and radial extent. In this investigation, it was analyzed an inductive profilometric sensor to scan three races, radius r1, r2, r3, in a circular surface of low carbon steel, equipped with eight consecutive defects simulated by bulges and holes by orbit, equally spaced at p/4 rad. A test rig and a methodology for testing in laboratory were developed to evaluate the sensor response and identify their dead zones and jumps due to fluctuations as a function of topological features and scanning velocity, four speeds different. The results are presented, analyzed and suggestions are made toward a new conception of sensor topologies, more sensible to detect these type of damage morphologies / Para melhorar as pr?ticas de manuten??o, oleodutos e gasodutos s?o inspecionados internamente por sistemas automatizados denominados PIG (Pipeline Inspection Gauge). Uma inspe??o e mapeamento de danos, como ressaltos e rebaixos, na parede interna desses dutos s?o cada vez mais inseridos em pr?tica para uma pol?tica de Integridade Estrutural. A vida residual dessas estruturas deve ser determinada a fim de minimizar as probabilidades de falha. Por esta raz?o, a investiga??o no limite de detec??o de algumas caracter?sticas topol?gicas b?sicas constitu?das por picos e vales dispostas ao longo de uma superf?cie lisa ? de grande valia para a determina??o da sensibilidade nas medi??es de defeitos de alguns n?veis de combina??es circunferencial, axial e radial. Nesta pesquisa, foi analisado um sensor perfilom?trico indutivo para inspecionar tr?s ?rbitas, de raios r1, r2 e r3 numa superf?cie circular de a?o baixo carbono, equipado com oito danos consecutivos simulados por rebaixos e ressaltos, por ?rbita, uniformemente espa?adas de p/4 rad. Uma bancada de ensaio e uma metodologia para teste em laborat?rio foram desenvolvidos para avaliar a resposta do sensor e identificar suas zonas cegas devido ? flutua??o dos saltos como uma fun??o das caracter?sticas topol?gicas e inspe??o de velocidades quatro velocidades distintas. Os resultados s?o apresentados, analisados e sugest?es s?o feitas na dire??o de uma nova concep??o de topologias de sensores, mais sens?veis para detectar esses tipos de morfologias de danos
