Who we Are

In 2023, Engineering Director, inc. (EDI) from Evanston, IL and Marr Associates, Winnipeg, Canada joined forces to establish Stress Science LLC. Our pioneering venture combines machine learning algorithms and rich data sources to deepen our understanding of the intricate relationships among environmental factors, stress levels, and pipe characteristics. Our primary focus is to address the challenges of Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) affecting onshore pipelines.

What we are About

Our Mission

Our mission is to identify and assess the multiple variables that contribute to pipeline threats like Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) and external corrosion. We employ a data-centric approach that leverages the immense capabilities of Big Data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI) to provide unparalleled insights into pipeline health and risk factors.


Our Vision

We aspire to redefine pipeline integrity management by seamlessly integrating advanced technologies and sophisticated analytics. Our focus is not just on mechanical stresses and material characteristics of pipelines but also on the often-overlooked environmental parameters. By merging data from diverse sources like real-time sensor feeds, geological databases, climate information, and operational histories, we aim to create a holistic, predictive model for pipeline health.


What Sets Us Apart

  • Innovation: We utilize the latest advancements in machine learning algorithms, GIS technology, and LiDAR mapping to process and interpret Big Data.

  • Environmental Focus: Our unique approach places a heavy emphasis on environmental variables—like soil chemistry, temperature fluctuations, and even microbiological factors—that contribute to pipeline corrosion and degradation.

  • Collaborative Ecosystem: We believe in the power of collective intelligence and have developed strong collaborations with pipeline operators, regulators, technology providers, and academic researchers.

  • Compliance and Beyond: Our analytics models are designed to not just meet but exceed current regulatory requirements, setting new benchmarks for the industry.

  • Scalability: Our solutions are tailored to be adaptable and scalable, meeting the diverse needs of various types of pipelines and environmental conditions.


Our Technologies

We use a wide range of technologies including but not limited to:

  • Sophisticated Data Analytics Platforms
  • GIS and LiDAR for High-Resolution Environmental Mapping
  • Machine Learning Algorithms for Predictive Analytics

Where We're Headed

With a deep commitment to R&D and an unwavering focus on continuous improvement, we are constantly refining our models and technologies. As we look to the future, we plan to expand our services to address other critical issues in pipeline management, always keeping an eye on sustainability and environmental responsibility.
