Terra 15 revolutionizes infrastructure monitoring using fibre optic cables, providing real-time awareness of integrity and risks.

  • Traditional inspection practices for underground and remote infrastructure are infrequent and manually intensive, leading to missed problems and slow remediation actions despite the increasing dependence on such infrastructure.
  • Telecommunications cables and pipelines worldwide face numerous incidents, with over 50% of pipeline breaks caused by accidental strikes during digging activities, resulting in service outages.
  • A significant portion of water-carrying pipelines globally are aged beyond their useful life, leading to water loss of up to 50% in some countries and significant environmental impact.
  • Terra15 offers a solution by enabling continuous monitoring of pipelines using standard fibre optic cables, allowing for the instant detection and location of digging activities or pipeline leaks to prevent service disruptions and environmental damage.
  • The benefits include avoiding unplanned disruptions, cost savings, and better maintenance planning through efficient allocation of maintenance and replacement budgets.
  • Terra15's technology, consisting of hardware and software solutions, transforms optical fibre cables into a vast sensing network, providing real-time awareness of infrastructure integrity and risks.
