Pipeline inspectors are individuals who inspect pipelines for flaws, holes, or breaks in lines, and who maintain the integrity and safety of pipelines.
Pipeline inspectors often seek to find defects so they can make repairs and prevent further damage.
Pipeline inspectors work in a variety of settings, including industries where pipelines transport a tangible commodity, such as petroleum, natural gas, coal, or ore.
Their duties may also include inspecting pipelines in industries that are more intangible, such as telecommunications and electrical power.
