Leading utility and energy innovation company recognized for positive impact on methane emissions, energy reliability and safety.
Explore our technologies and field services:
Our team deploys advanced robotics into live cast iron gas mains to stop leaks, prevent new leaks from forming, and extend the life of the pipe. CISBOT drastically reduces costs and public disruption and is a key strategy in utility asset management and emergency leak repair.
ULC’s patent-pending X-ID™ Cross Bore Detection technology deploys directly into newly installed or legacy PE gas mains to detect cross bores while eliminating the need to enter sewer mains and laterals.
AUSMOS is a semi-autonomous robotic platform that detects and marks out below-ground infrastructure utilizing a sensor suite comprised of ground penetrating radar (GPR) and electromagnetic sensors. This advanced robotic platform automates underground mapping enabling denser GPR data collection and more powerful post-processing techniques that results in easier to interpret data, reducing the risk for accidental damage to buried assets.
We partner with utility, energy and industrial companies to develop and commercialize advanced robotics, machine learning and innovative inspection systems.
Our field operatives work with gas networks and contractors to conduct detailed inspections and surveys of live gas mains and services. ULC Technologies brings years of expertise into every project to deliver in-pipe intelligence and solve problems.

“CISBOT enables us to keep the roads open, have the gas on the entire time, and it massively reduces the duration of the work.”
“CISBOT delivered 850m of Gas mains remediation to this highly sensitive location in 9 weeks compared to 9 months via traditional methods, The impact on traffic was considerably reduced and at no time did customers have their gas supplies interrupted.”
Before we excavate for replacement of Aldyl-A pipe, we always call ULC to help us avoid third party damages in the field. We won’t dig until ULC marks the main using their long range cameras. Their marks are spot-on, which means fewer holes in the street for our community.
Before we brought in ULC, we had to rely on old records and some of the curb lines have changed or streets have widened, making it challenging to locate the stubs. In-Pipe Locating is a good program to bring in to help us locate the stubs and possibly prevent damages when we’re installing our new gas main.
“Hiring ULC Robotics for the work with CISBOT on West End Avenue cost $400,000. To do the job the way such work used to be done would have cost $1.5 million to $1.8 million.”
