Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of oil pipeline detection, in particular to a nondestructive detection system and a detection method for oil pipelines. Background Art

[0002] Petroleum, one of the main objects of geological exploration, is a viscous, dark brown liquid, known as the "blood of industry". Petroleum is stored in some areas of the upper crust. The main components are a mixture of various alkanes, cycloalkanes, and aromatic hydrocarbons. Petroleum is mainly used as fuel and gasoline, and is also the raw material for many chemical industrial products, such as solutions, fertilizers, pesticides, and plastics. Petroleum is usually transported in metal pipes during production and transportation, and the metal pipes used for petroleum transportation need to be non-destructively tested on their surfaces before use to ensure the safe operation of the oil pipelines. At present, when detecting surface defects of oil pipelines, most of them are operated by staff using handheld ultrasonic flaw detectors. This method has low detection speed and efficiency and poor detection effect. Therefore, we propose a non-destructive testing system and detection method for oil pipelines to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
