Gas Pipeline Substation Perimeter Intrusion Detection System (PIDS)

Securing gas pipeline substations is essential to maintaining the safety and reliability of large-scale transmission networks. For PetroChina’s Third West-East Gas Pipeline project, Bandweaver delivered a robust perimeter security solution designed to protect critical sites across a vast and geographically diverse infrastructure.

Using FenceSentry fiber optic sensing, the system provides continuous monitoring along substation boundaries, detecting and precisely locating intrusion attempts such as climbing, cutting, or tampering. Integrated with CCTV, SCADA, and central monitoring platforms, it enables real-time visibility and rapid response to potential threats.

The result is a scalable, low-maintenance security solution that enhances protection, reduces risk, and supports the reliable operation of critical gas pipeline infrastructure.
