The Exposure

The Ticket Came In Friday. The Marks Went Down Wednesday. The Dig Started Tuesday.

Locate requests pile up after a storm, the legal response time runs out, the excavator stops waiting, and a backhoe finds the line before the paint does. Every one of those steps had a time on it that nobody was watching.

The ticket was received. Nobody was counting down its response time.

Every Ticket, Dig and Patrol on Its Clock.

Set your state response times and your high-consequence segments once. X3 counts down every ticket and every patrol, and puts a watcher on the digs that need one.

Tickets

Received, due, marked, cleared and the positive response, against your state’s legal time.

Excavation watch

Digs inside the tolerance zone of your highest-consequence pipe get a named watcher.

Damages

Every hit or near miss with its root cause and cost, so the pattern shows.

Patrols

Right-of-way patrols on their legal frequency by class and crossing.

Markers

Line markers at every road, rail and water crossing, checked on the walk.

Public awareness

API RP 1162 audiences, message frequency and the four-year effectiveness review.

A late ticket is a near miss. X3 makes sure nobody treats it as normal.

Why per mile. Pipeline work grows with miles of pipe: patrols, test stations, valves, leak surveys and assessments all scale with the system. So X3 Pipeline is priced per regulated mile. Every product has a monthly minimum that covers your first 100 miles, because every operator carries the same fixed work whatever its size: written procedures, an OQ program, an emergency plan and annual reports. Each mile after that adds a small amount. All nine products cost about four times one, so running the whole loop is the better deal, and paying for a year gets you twelve months for the price of ten.

Prices in US dollars. Subscriptions renew each month or year until cancelled.

Straight Answers

Questions Operators Ask About X3 Pipeline Damage Prevention.

Have one that is not here? Ask X3, or write to us and a person will answer.

Does X3 connect to our one-call center?
Tickets can be entered or imported from your one-call center’s daily export using the template built into the import button. A direct feed can be set up with you.
How are response times set?
Per state, from its one-call law, in business hours with holidays excluded where the law says so.
Does it cover public awareness?
Yes. API RP 1162 audiences, how often each must hear from you, and the four-year effectiveness evaluation.
Do I have to buy all nine products?
No. X3 Pipeline Damage Prevention works on its own. Each product owns one job, and you add another when that job matters to you. The command center brings together whichever products you have.
How do I start?
Create your account, describe your pipeline systems once in Company Setup, then add X3 Pipeline Damage Prevention (or all nine products) to your plan. Your company starts empty and every screen tells you what to do first.
How does pricing work?
One product is $499 a month for your first 100 miles of pipe, then $3 a month for each mile after that. All nine products are $1,999 a month for your first 100 miles, then $12 a mile. Pay for a year and you get twelve months for the price of ten. Over 2,500 miles, we set the plan up with you.
Can my whole team use it?
Yes. Invite your engineers, field techs, controllers and auditors at no extra cost. Each person gets their own sign-in and a role (admin, editor or viewer), and you can limit a person to some products. Everyone works on the same records, and every save shows who made it and when.
Can I keep documents and photos with the records?
Yes. Attach PDFs, photos, Word and Excel files to any record: the survey report on the survey, the dig photos on the anomaly, the signed form on the work order. On a phone, Take Photo opens the camera and stamps where the photo was taken.
Does it work in the field without a signal?
Yes. Add X3 Pipeline to your phone’s home screen. Work orders you opened stay on the phone, and readings, photos and signatures you record without a signal are kept on the phone and sent when the connection is back.
Do the products work together?
Yes. Each product can hand work to the next: an anomaly in Integrity becomes a dig in Field, a failed reading in Corrosion becomes a repair work order, a finished job becomes evidence in Audit. The command center shows every hand-off until it is taken up.
Every ticket, answered.
