A smarter, faster way to manage pipeline geohazards, from detection to decision

Orkus is Klarian's geohazard management platform that transforms complex data into risk-informed decisions

Built for oil, gas, water and energy infrastructure operators, it delivers the clarity and speed needed to protect assets, meet compliance standards and prevent costly failures.

Developed in collaboration with Thurber Engineering - Canada’s leading pipeline geohazard experts - Orkus combines deep domain knowledge with powerful analytics and intuitive workflows.

Comprehensive clarity in any terrain

Pipelines and infrastructure face constant threats from landslides, erosion, flooding and seismic activity. If these hazards exceed design tolerances, the results can be catastrophic, ranging from regulatory penalties to large-scale environmental disasters.
Orkus brings all hazard-related data into one platform, including:

  • Geospatial & satellite datasets (InSAR, LiDAR, photogrammetry)
  • Pipeline inspection data (ILI, IMU)
  • GIS & survey layers
  • Mobile field data (online or offline)

From here, Orkus applies configurable risk models, prioritises threats and tracks mitigation actions, all in a single, regulator-ready environment.

Hotspots identified across a pipeline network

All your geohazard insights in one tool

Ingest

Integrates information from multiple sources, like remote sensing, and inspection data, connecting critical datasets in one place

Analyse

Uses customisable risk algorithms that are transparent, editable and aligned with industry standards

Act

Assigns actions with traceable workflows, ensuring risk management actions are logged, tracked and auditable.

Report

Generates instant, exportable reports with embedded maps, charts and photos for decision-makers or regulators.

How Orkus works

Orkus unifies all geohazard intelligence into one platform. It ingests survey data, satellite imagery, inspection results and field observations, then applies transparent, semi-quantitative risk scoring aligned with standards like CSA Z662 and PHMSA.

The platform highlights the highest-priority threats, links them to recommended management actions and tracks progress with auditable workflows. The result is faster, defensible decision-making, reducing site visits, cutting compliance risk and protecting both communities and the environment.

Key benefits of Orkus

Operational clarityIdentify and act on high-priority risks first.

Simplified compliance - with CSA Z662, PHMSA, and other global standards.

Faster field-to-office workflowsCapture once, sync instantly, act immediately.

Reduced site visitsScreen low-risk areas remotely to focus resources effectively.

Risk informed decision making - prevent multi-million dollar loss events through early intervention

Integration with Juno

Orkus works seamlessly with Klarian’s Juno platform for operational analytics, creating a unified view of both physical threats (like landslides) and operational performance (like pump efficiency). This integrated insight accelerates decision-making and reduces siloed risk management.
