Purpose. We propose to apply a set of geophysical and remote sensing methods to engineering surveys when design­ing and operating linear underground constructions of pipeline transport. The use of traditional electrical methods together with remote monitoring makes the research significantly more informative.

Design/methodology/approach. The study permits to identify the area best fitting for laying and operating the pipeline transport system. The paper provides a complex of geophysical and remote monitoring methods to guarantee safety standards on the pipeline/transport systems when affected by natural and anthropogenic hazards.

Findings. The study confirmed the feasibility of using digital satellite images in monitoring pipeline transport facili­ties. We propose to apply remote data in conjunction with a complex of traditional electrical methods to the pipeline transportation system, the latter being typified as a complex engineering construction.

Implications. Remote monitoring can be used to investigate sites of probable liquid or gas leakage through the damage to pipelines. The following electrical methods permit to determine probable areas of corrosion sites on the pipeline transport systems: VES (vertical electrical sounding), “remote electrode” (electrometric survey), measuring potential gradient, and SEP (symmetrical electrical profiling).

Keywords: corrosion, pipeline systems, engineering surveys, VES, SEP, the method of “remote electrode”, measuring potential gradient, remote monitoring.
