Who We Are
As your Integrity Management Partner, we are dedicated to helping you drive compliance and safety in your pipeline systems.
JANA’s models are the only truly probabilistic models that can reliably predict system risks and our software has unparalleled flexibility in managing data.
JANA applies what PHMSA calls Best Practice—probabilistic risk modeling and software—to proactively manage leak management and corrosion issues on gas pipelines. Built on 15 years of proprietary data and data analysis from JANA’s pipeline laboratory, including more than 325 million hours of pipe and component test data, means our models and software are defensible and highly predictive. This empowers gas pipeline operators to take actions to reduce risk in their systems. Our Integrity Data suite also enables pipeline operators to finally capture their pipeline asset data and unlock the value associated with this data.
“Better Pipelines for a Better World”
