Systems and methods are provided for powering a pipeline inspection system. The system includes an induction generator extending along a radially curved plane. The induction generator having an outer surface and an opposing inner surface. The outer surface is positioned proximate to an inner surface area of a pipeline. The system also includes a controller circuit configured to generate a plurality of periodic waveform signals. The plurality of periodic waveform signals are received by the induction generator. The induction generator is configured to generate active power that charges an electric power source based on the plurality of periodic waveform signals and the inner surface area.

A method includes providing a length of pipeline that has a housing defining a central bore extending the length of the pipe and a space formed within the housing and extending the length of the pipe. At least one condition within the space is continuously monitored within the space to detect in real time if a change in the housing occurs.

A shut-off device for a pipe in a pipeline and responsive to ingress of water, has at least two valves for installation in the pipe of the pipeline. Each valve has a valve member supported for movement between an open position when the valve is open for passage of a fluid through the pipe, and a closed position when the valve is closed for preventing passage of the fluid through the valve. The device includes a buoyant member associated with the valve members for causing movement of the valve members to the closed positions upon ingress of water to the buoyant member. The valve members are moved to the closed positions in respective upstream and downstream directions of passage of the fluid through the pipe.
