Recently, Honeycomb Aerospace participated in the Pipeline Network Group's 2024 UAV intelligent inspection technology test. This is the first time that the National Pipeline Network Group has carried out such a test to provide technical support for promoting the construction of the pipeline intelligent patrol pilot area, promoting the reform and innovation of pipeline patrol methods and the overall improvement of pipeline security management level, and creating a smart and interconnected pipeline network.

The test lasted for 14 days and was carried out at the Interriver oil transfer station. Twenty-two manufacturers from Beijing, Shanghai, Xi 'an and other places were invited to participate in the exhibition, focusing on the latest products and cutting-edge technological achievements in the field of UAV inspection, and exploring advanced, excellent and applicable new products according to the needs and application scenarios of pipeline enterprises.

This project uses Cangheshi pipeline to test the flight performance of fixed wing and multi-rotor UAV library system, software platform functional performance, daytime inspection, night inspection and other more than 10 comprehensive technical indicators of pipeline patrol, in order to measure and promote the use of measurement, and ensure high-quality development with a high level of safety.

Honeycomb aerospace is committed to providing industry users with high-quality, reliable and practical UAV systems and solutions, the participation in the pipeline UAV intelligent inspection technology test, Honeycomb aerospace not only to verify the feasibility and practicality of its own technology in the field of pipeline inspection, but also with other outstanding enterprises in the industry to carry out technical exchanges and cooperation, and jointly promote the process of intelligent pipe network construction.

During the testing process, Honeycomb Aerospace gave full play to its own technical advantages, designed and provided a variety of solutions for the actual needs of different pipeline patrol. Whether it is for the complex environment around the pipeline line, or for the defects and damage on the pipeline surface, Honeycomb Aerospace will provide efficient and accurate inspection services through drone technology to escort the safe operation of the pipeline.

HC-526 UAV is a small vertical fixed-wing UAV flight platform with a maximum endurance of 3h, load capacity of 5kg, and ceiling of 5000m. With excellent aerodynamic shape design, the whole aircraft adopts aviation composite materials, high strength and light weight. It is suitable for various application scenarios such as long working time and large task load. The system can be equipped with photoelectric pods, communication equipment, mapping cameras, gamma nuclide monitors and other types of detection equipment to complete pipeline inspection, traffic patrol, emergency mapping, agriculture and forestry environmental protection tasks.

SU-30Pro intelligent unmanned airport is composed of intelligent inspection UAV and intelligent UAV parking cabin, intelligent inspection UAV maximum endurance time 55min, load capacity 5kg, ceiling 5000m. The system has the advantages of remote control, autonomous charging, autonomous taking off and landing, cluster autonomous operation and other industries, providing users with efficient and convenient application methods, and can be widely used in pipeline inspection, environmental monitoring, power inspection, forest fire prevention, emergency detection and other industries.

The application of intelligent unmanned airport in pipeline inspection not only greatly reduces the security risks and difficulties caused by manual inspection, but also significantly improves the inspection efficiency and fineness of pipelines. Whether it is a regular survey of the pipeline, or emergency inspection processing of emergencies, the system can achieve 7*24 hours of uninterrupted day and night protection, solving the pain points and difficulties of pipeline inspection, and promoting the intelligent management and upgrading of pipeline inspection.

The holding of the pipeline UAV intelligent inspection technology test is not only a comprehensive inspection of the application of UAV technology in the field of pipeline patrol, but also a powerful practice of the concept of intelligent pipe network construction. As one of the participants, Hive Aerospace actively cooperated with the test organization and contributed to the smooth conduct of the test and the fruitful output of technical results. In the future, Hive Aerospace will continue to innovate products and solutions, and work together with industry customers and partners to protect the safe operation of oil and gas energy.
