Rapid Response

Our highly trained dogs locate leaks along oil and gas pipelines. Our specialized odorant is injected at the well head and will rise to the surface allowing our dog team to pinpoint the source of the leak. This system saves oil and gas companies time, manpower, and equipment use. Our services can be used for gathering lines, distribution lines, transmission pipelines, refineries and even building gas leaks. KPI leak detectors are versatile with a parts per billion olfactory operating system.  We have a 24 hour emergency response line with rapid mobilization. Our canine teams can be mobilized and on your job site anywhere in the United States.    

Oil & Gas Pipeline Leak Detection

KPI detection dogs are trained to pinpoint leaks with our industry approved odorant. Our odorant system was developed by Imperial Oil and Exxon Mobil. KPI dogs detect on lines in all conditions and terrains.

How It Works

We have a 24/7 emergency response line. The moment the contract is signed we are on the road. Upon arrival, our lead technician will inject our industry tested and approved odorant and the line will be pressurized. Our canine teams will inspect along the right of way after 24 hours. KPI dogs have experience detecting in rain, snow, dense clay, thick foliage. A minimum of two dogs are used per contract.  Our specialized odorant is designed to migrate vertically to the surface. KPI dogs indicate the location of a leak by digging. They are trained to indicated at the strongest concentration therefore their pinpointing abilities will typically be w a meter. The handler will mark the leak location and digging/repair will begin.  The canine team will continue the inspection- the first leak isn't always the only leak.
