Abstract :
Technical characteristics of enhanced power ground penetrating radar (GPR) developed at IZMIRAN are discussed. Examples of successful application of LOZA GPR at the stages of projecting, pipe-laying and pipeline maintenance are given. The geological structure of a pipeline path has been explored in a joint IPDM-IZMIRAN expedition.
