Irth Solutions, a U.S.-based provider of cloud-native software for asset integrity, and Jee Ltd., a U.K. engineering consultancy, have formed a strategic partnership to enhance pipeline safety and operational efficiency for operators across the UK, Europe, and Africa.

The alliance, announced on Monday, Nov. 17, integrates Irth’s advanced technology with Jee’s more than 30 years of experience in pipeline design and integrity management. The core combined offering centers on Irth’s Asset Integrity for Pipelines (AIP) software, a cloud-native platform that enables clients to align, integrate, and evaluate pipeline integrity data. 

One of the key features of the platform is its ability to rapidly import and intelligently match pipeline defects from multiple inline inspection (ILI) runs.

Jee will provide the hands-on engineering services, including the import of ILI data, executing the AIP software, running corrosion growth analysis, and conducting necessary risk assessments and fitness-for-service evaluations. 

This collaboration allows for automated engineering analysis and automated reporting, providing clients with a streamlined integrity assessment.

Brandon Taylor, Chief Business Officer of Irth Solutions, expressed enthusiasm for the combined approach, adding that “their proven track record in pipeline engineering and customer service complements AIP perfectly.”

“Together, we’ll help operators in EMEA unlock greater efficiency and data-driven integrity management.”

For clients, the partnership offers flexible access. Operators can utilize Jee’s platform as a service or license the AIP software directly from Irth Solutions, with Jee providing local implementation support and technical training.

Trevor Jee, Managing Director of Jee, noted the commitment to innovation. 

“Through our collaboration with Irth Solutions, we’re excited to offer a smart, cost-efficient approach to integrity management—powered by advanced analytics and automation from a partner we trust,” he said. 

Jee has already successfully implemented the solution on several client projects.
