SYSTEM AND METHOD TO GENERATE THREE-DIMENSIONAL MAPPING OF A TUBULAR COMPONENT LAYOUT

摘要

A system and method to generate a three-dimensional mapping of an arrangement of tubular components are described. The tubular components include one or more straight pipes and one or more bent segments connected at interfaces. The system includes a plurality of electronically readable identifiers, each electronically readable identifier being disposed in proximity to one of the interfaces of two of the tubular components and each side of the interface comprising at least one RFID chip. The system also includes a reader to receive a signal from each of the plurality of electronically readable identifiers in turn and a processor to process a position of the reader and each of the signals to generate the three-dimensional mapping.

1. A system to generate a three-dimensional mapping of an arrangement of tubular components, the tubular components comprising one or more straight pipes and one or more bent segments connected at interfaces, the system comprising:
a plurality of electronically readable identifiers, each electronically readable identifier being disposed in proximity to one of the interfaces of two of the tubular components and each side of the interface comprising at least one electronically readable identifier; a reader configured to receive a signal from each of the plurality of electronically readable identifiers in turn; and a processor configured to process a position of the reader and each of the signals to generate the three-dimensional mapping.
