Rerouting a transmission corridor off federal land, with over 50% savings on schedule

Three months of manual route analysis, delivered in minutes
Client Large natural gas utility
Problem Evaluate route options for natural gas transmission in a highly populated area
A 20-inch line through a dense metro area, with crossing and impact reports across every route option returned in minutes. The utility had run the same kind of analysis manually before and it took three months.

A floodplain and a critical species habitat, found in minutes and designed around
Client Large EPC

Wall thickness and materials estimated from crossing data, not assumptions
Client Large EPC
Problem Develop a materials list for a natural gas pipeline project to avoid unforeseen construction costs and delays
Crossing lengths pulled from Pivvot's geospatial analysis determined wall thickness along the route. The materials list arrived early enough to make the cost estimate reflect what the project would actually meet.

A 24-mile pipeline, budgeted for rock sawing that was never needed
Client Large pipeline operator
Problem Understand construction realities earlier in the project
Rock sawing was budgeted across 24 miles of bedrock, and Final Investment Decision was granted on that number. Analysis in the design phase took minutes and showed the estimate was dramatically high.
