HAWXEYE, developed by Xodus engineers as an alternative to spreadsheets, is a cloud-based web app geared to screen assets for vibration, erosion and corrosion related issues.
Complex data from monitors and piping and instrumentation diagrams are brought together into an interface creating accessible and transparent information for both internal company use and external reporting. In addition, the online tool will automatically screen against industry standards and retains data so that it can be observed and audited at any time.
HAWXEYE can highlight poor design in the project and operations phases and detect the root causes of piping and pipeline failures and monitor reliability, says Xodus. By storing historical data throughout the asset and project lifecycles, the online tool allows concise data to be used to inform asset integrity management and continuous improvement programs.
“Our research with operators showed that spreadsheets, the most common method of storing asset data, add time, complexity and frustration to the ability to screen and prevent failures effectively,” said Graeme Rogerson, operations director at Xodus Group. “HAWXEYE is fully scalable, from a single item to multiple assets and can be used by any organization facing piping and pipeline condition issues in difficult to reach equipment, which is a costly issue for the industry. Through its simple traffic light system, it highlights likelihood of failures and enables preventative action to be taken.”
