Even small leaks in gas or oil pipelines can lead to high costs. Locating leaks by means of the most sophis-ticated equipment is expensive, time-consuming and often impossible in remote areas. With TÜV-certifi ed dogs, The Sniffers offers the best solution for detec-tions in every terrain, even in snow-covered areas. The unique method of using detection dogs to detect gas leaks has shown to be more than successful over the years and has moreover surpassed the strict political and economic regulations in all areas. TÜV-certifi ed dogs: the fastest, most fl exible and most cost-effi cient detection technique for both above-ground and under-ground pipelines.

The detection of short-circuits in circuits that are often very large is a labour-intensive and time-consuming process. By using trained dogs, short-circuits can be located quickly and accurately in low and medium ten-sion underground circuits. The ideal solution for mini-mising down time and optimising repairs.

Oil, ethylene, propane...regardless of which valuable substance is fl owing through your pipelines, illegal pipeline tapping is a major problem in many countries. You can see that it’s happening, but fi nding the cause - often over hundreds of kilometres of pipelines - is not easy. Illegal tappers are getting much more creative and your pipeline infrastructure often runs through forests, mountains, rivers and other places that are diffi cult to get to. The Sniffers has the answer to this diffi culty. Our TÜV-certifi ed dogs are specialised in locating illegal tapping installations. The result? Time and again, our dogs succeed in locating illegal tapping sites along hundreds, often heavily guarded, diffi cult to access kilometres of pipeline. Quickly, accurately and cost-effectively.

Cargoes are screened faster with detection dogs. The dogs work extremely accurately, can screen large quantities of cargo quickly, and never interrupt the supply chain. In the Netherlands we are one of the few companies that have received all permits, from the National Coordinator for Counter-Terrorism and Safety (NCTv), to deploy explosive detection dog teams at all airports for the purpose of cargo screening.

Our dogs are the ideal weapon against drug smuggling. At events, concerts or drug traffi cking. In cases of individuals or cargoes, in aeroplanes, trains or trucks, with noses that are highly trained for every substance, our dogs can detect any substance anywhere, no matter how diffi cult to reach.

The possibilities of dogs are nearly infi nite. From detecting water leaks in irrigation and cooling systems and locating stowaways or missing persons during disasters to fi nding money and medicine and assisting in cancer studies. Every substance can be detected. In our constant search for new applications, we can always offer our clients custom work, perfectly confi gured to meet their needs and wishes.
