Utility customers do not separate service from resilience. When outages happen, the digital channel becomes the front door to trust.
WHY THIS “CONTINUOUS GAS INSPECTION” CHALLENGE?
Periodic checks can’t keep pace with methane risk. 

Methane leaks threaten safety, waste product, and harm the environment. As regulations tighten and decarbonisation targets rise, operators need continuous visibility to detect leaks earlier and strengthen resilience.

Key benefits
Every leak becomes actionable intelligence
check icon
See farther. Send fewer crews

Continuous monitoring identifies methane leaks before they become critical incidents.

check icon
Turn emissions into priorities

Repairs are guided by measured emissions instead of fixed schedules, improving maintenance efficiency.

Where network visibility never blinks

Historical data reveals recurring leak locations, infrastructure degradation, and asset health trends.

Compliance built on evidence

Accurate, continuous measurements strengthen regulatory reporting and support increasingly demanding ESG commitments.

How NTT DATA helps

01
Continuous sensing across the network 

Deploy high-precision methane sensing on mobile inspection platforms to continuously analyse gas infrastructure under real operating conditions.

AI driven data flows delivering real time operational intelligence for critical utility operations
02
AI-powered leak intelligence 

Advanced analytics distinguish pipeline leaks from naturally occurring methane and estimate both location and emission severity automatically.

AI-powered pipeline leak detection analytics identifying methane leaks, locations and emission severity
03
Connected operational workflows 

Integrate inspection results with GIS, Asset Management and Workforce Management to automate work orders and optimise repairs.

The Operational Twin
04
Asset strategies driven by data 

Historical measurements support predictive asset management, helping identify deteriorating infrastructure before failures occur.
