Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to systems and methods for locating an anomaly along an inside surface of a conveyance pipe containing two mediums separated by a two medium interface. The systems and methods include an assembly transportable within the conveyance pipe. The assembly includes an enclosure that is at least partially transparent and is positionable to be located both above and below the two medium interface. An upper camera and a lower camera enclosed within the enclosure are operable to capture images of the inside surface of the conveyance pipe above and below the two medium interface. A data acquisition unit is in electronic communication with the upper camera and the lower camera, and includes a processor programmed to determine a presence and a location of the anomaly by analyzing the captured images.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and system for conveying a slurry which include a mixing tub configured to mix a solid and a liquid to form the slurry, a pump operable to pump the slurry through the conveyance line a distance to the placement site, and a control system operable to adjust a percent of solids of the slurry within the mixing tub based on at least one of a target pump rate or the distance to the placement site.
