عنوان المشروع: Petro-Serpent X: A Biomimetic Snake Robot for AI-Assisted Internal Inspection and Digital-Twin Monitoring of Oil and Gas Transmission Pipelines
الوصف:
**Petro-Serpent X** is an intelligent biomimetic snake robot designed for internal inspection of oil and gas transmission pipelines, particularly in narrow, curved, and hazardous sections where human access and conventional inspection tools are limited. The project aims to support early detection of internal defects such as corrosion, cracks, holes, deposits, and blockages, enabling safer and faster maintenance decisions.
The robot uses a modular articulated body driven by servo actuators to generate serpentine motion inside pipelines. A stereo camera module at the front captures inspection images, while the platform can integrate acoustic, ultrasonic, telemetry, and other sensing inputs. These data are processed using artificial intelligence models to identify defect categories and estimate their severity.
The inspection results are connected to an event-driven digital-twin dashboard that displays the camera feed, detected regions, 3D pipeline representation, telemetry indicators, and mission status. The design also includes a first-response repair concept based on a micro-pump and fast-curing resin for localized temporary sealing of critical defects.
The expected impact of Petro-Serpent X is to reduce risks associated with manual inspection, shorten fault-detection time, improve maintenance awareness, and provide a scalable foundation for future intelligent maintenance systems for oil and gas pipelines.
