About US

Securing the world's energy infrastructure assets

When an asset, like a pipeline or power cable fails, it can impact public safety, the environment, reputations and brand equity. So companies require holistic solutions that provide 'real-time' alerts over the entire length of pipelines, power cables, subsea risers, umbilicals, and flowlines (SURF). Here is where Omnisens helps.

From research to revenue

Omnisens is a company born out of research into fiber optic measurement techniques at the Technical University of Lausanne (EPFL). Today, Omnisens provides energy companies with advanced systems for securing asset integrity, helping ensure safety, reduce risk and improve commercial performance.

Reducing the risk of catastrophe

By monitoring pipelines, subsea infrastructures and electricity cables in 'real-time', Omnisens technology accurately detects events, before they become catastrophic failures, and gives their location, so they can be quickly investigated and rectified.

Cost-effective and responsible solutions

Energy companies invest millions in safety and social responsibility programs. Omnisens supports these commitments by helping companies avoid the huge costs – human, reputational and financial - of a catastrophic event, such as a pipeline leak, or an interruption to supplies.

Proprietary technologies and a fully integrated service

As an expert and preferred partner, Omnisens proven technologies combine sensors, software and applications expertise to create high performance monitoring systems that deliver accuracy and, ultimately, peace of mind. Operations cover the full spectrum of commercial activity, from design, engineering, project management and installation to training, data interpretation, service and support.

Securing asset integrity with Omnisens

A leader in long-distance fiber optic sensing, Omnisens has pioneered effective real-time asset integrity monitoring solutions for critical oil and gas, power and civil engineering infrastructures.

The company's monitoring solutions are designed to:

  • Prevent leaks in onshore pipelines through the detection and location of ground movement and third-party interference.
  • Detect and locate leaks in onshore and offshore pipelines.
  • Assure flow in subsea flowlines, as well as monitor the condition and performance of heat-traced pipelines.
  • Monitor fatigue and operating condition of subsea umbilicals, risers and flowlines.
  • Optimize performance and monitor the condition of terrestrial and submarine high voltage power cables.

Through its dedicated team, Omnisens follows a project's evolution from design, sensing cable selection and application, project management, commissioning, data interpretation and on-site or remote service and support, for fully integrated, continuous asset integrity monitoring.
The company operates throughout the world, either direct or through specialized solution providers.
