Gray Jay Corrosion Ltd

Corrosion control and integrity engineering for oil & gas pipelines.

Cathodic protection, pipeline integrity engineering and right-of-way services. For clients using PipeGuard, our pipeline risk management software, survey and inspection results can also be mapped and run through PipeGuard's risk engine.

What we do

Cathodic Protection

Surveys, diagnostics, design, installation and materials for pipelines, tanks and facilities.

  • Annual compliance surveys
  • CIS, DCVG and ACVG defect mapping
  • Internal current transfer investigations
  • ICCP and sacrificial system design

Pipeline Integrity Engineering

Risk management, engineering assessments and integrity documentation aligned with CSA Z662, by engineers who know the line from the field.

  • Risk management and annual risk assessments
  • Engineering assessments
  • ILI assessments
  • Integrity documents and manuals
  • Root cause analysis, acquisition and audit support

Right-of-Way Surveys

Aerial and ground surveillance that keeps the corridor documented and defensible, with findings that can also be mapped in PipeGuard.

  • Drone patrols and corridor imagery
  • Encroachment, erosion and vegetation review
  • Crossing and ground-disturbance support
  • Access, signage and site records

PipeGuard Risk Software

Our Pipeline & Data Management Tool

  • Interactive map with risk, CP, pigging and failure layers
  • Proprietary risk engine scoring likelihood and consequence
  • Data management with files tagged and assigned to each line
  • PDF and Excel reports, KML export and performance tracking

PipeGuard is where it all comes together.

For clients using PipeGuard, every CP survey and right-of-way inspection we run can be mapped alongside your licence records, pigging and chemical KPIs and each line’s risk score, so the whole integrity picture is held in one place rather than split across spreadsheets and contractors.

What goes in
  • CP survey results
  • ROW inspection findings
  • Pigging and chemical KPIs
  • ILI and failure records
  • Regulatory data
PipeGuard Every input mapped to the line it belongs to, in one place
What you get
  • A risk score for every line
  • CP and ROW on the map
  • KPIs tracked per line
  • Reports for regulators
The PipeGuard map in 3D over high-definition satellite imagery of foothills terrain: a natural gas line in red across a creek valley, with the lines that tie into it in orange, their wells, and a small elevation profile of the line
Built from the licence record
Every licensed line and well in the regulatory data is already indexed. Adopt yours and the map exists before any survey is run.
Scored, with the driver named
A risk score and a level from Low to Severe for every line, with the mechanism behind it and a suggested mitigation.
Fed by our field programs
CP survey results, ROW findings, pigging and chemical records load by year, so the score follows what was actually done on the line.

Engineer-owned since 2020.

Gray Jay was founded in 2020 by two materials engineers who still lead the field work. We bring a modern, efficient approach to corrosion control and integrity — clear communication, fast turnaround and results that hold up to regulators and to real conditions on the right-of-way.
