Pipe inspection in Rouen, Le Havre and Dieppe

July 1, 2025

In the industrial and port areas of Rouen, Le Havre and Dieppe, pipeline control is a major challenge. Rainwater and wastewater networks, industrial process pipelines, underground ducts and technical tunnels all require regular monitoring, both to prevent risks and to ensure regulatory compliance.

The challenges are many: ensuring continuity of service, avoiding leaks, ruptures or pollution, while limiting production interruptions. To meet these requirements, Multinnov provides local players with its recognized expertise in visual inspection in confined environments. Thanks to innovative inspection robots like the Roview2 or the Stereo2we can intervene quickly, safely and with unrivalled precision.

Multinnov, who are we?

 

Multinnovis first and foremost a French company committed to robotics for industry. Since our creation, we have been developing robotic visual inspection technologies to make confined environments more accessible, interventions safer, and data more exploitable.

Based in France, our company designs, assembles and deploys its own machines. We place innovation at the heart of our DNA to offer professionals ever more efficient solutions, while guaranteeing locally controlled manufacturing. Our technical teams, engineers and field operators work hand in hand to offer an agile, responsive service adapted to every context.

We pride ourselves on combining high technology, made in France, with concrete results in the field.

Our expertise

Multinnov operates in all types of complex environments: underground pipelines, industrial pipelines, basins, tanks, tunnels, technical galleries, silos, and even confined aerial spaces.

Our expertise is based on three fundamental levers:

 

Anticipating field constraints

We know that every site is unique. Ground conditions, limited access, humidity, inclinations, presence of liquids, dust, lack of light... We adapt our equipment to each configuration, to guarantee a trouble-free inspection.

 

Mastering embedded technologies

We develop our own tools, from mechanics to software, video transmission, stabilization and sensors. This enables us to go further than conventional ITV standards, and to achieve unrivalled analysis quality, even in normally inaccessible areas.

 

Safety of people and structures

All our operations are designed to prevent personnel from entering hazardous environments, and to reduce the risk of falls, exposure to gases or unstable structures. Our inspection robots eliminate the need for heavy PPE, ventilation, scaffolding or decontamination.

Our areas of expertise

We cover a large part of Normandy, with a regular presence in Rouen, Le Havre and Dieppe. These high-activity areas are home to numerous industrial facilities, logistics infrastructures, public amenities and classified installations.

Here are a few examples of our areas of expertise:

 

Heavy industry and process

We inspect pipelines for steam, chemicals, industrial effluents or critical fluids, often located in sensitive areas. Thanks to our equipment, these inspections can be carried out without stopping production.

 

Sewage and stormwater networks

Multinnov works for local authorities and network operators as part of ITV diagnostic campaigns or one-off interventions: subsidence, clogging, deformation, infiltration, or post-construction inspections.

 

Energy and petrochemicals

We inspect complex structures such as cooling pipes, technical ducts or underground technical pits in sensitive environments (SEVESO, thermal power plants, ATEX zones).

 

Construction and infrastructure

Inspection of cable ducts, underground networks, technical substations, or reservations in new or refurbished structures.

Each mission is preceded by a field analysis to determine the most appropriate inspection solution, while respecting site constraints and safety imperatives.

Our inspection solutions

Multinnov deploys equipment designed for visual inspection in confined spaces. We have developed two complementary robots capable of covering more than 90% of applications: the Roview2 and the Stereo2.

 

Roview2 - The rolling robot for complex pipelines

The Roview2 is a mobile inspection robot on wheels, designed for non-accessible pipes, semi-filled networks and structures with obstacles. It is perfectly suited to wet, slippery or sloping environments.

 

Key features:

  • Rotating 4K camera (360° / 180°), turret-mounted ;
  • LED lighting up to 12,000 lumens, for optimum vision in the dark;
  • Full HD live video feed, with 4K recording;
  • Stability on slopes up to 45°, buoyancy for partially submerged pipes ;
  • Battery life up to 2 hours, wireless transmission, integrated telemetry.

It identifies :

  • Cracks, faulty connections, slope defects ;
  • Obstructions, roots, objects, infiltrations or collapses;
  • Structural anomalies before or after work.

Compliant with the NF EN 13508-2 standard, it enables fast, reliable ITV analysis in line with regulatory requirements.

 

Stereo2 - The indoor drone for confined spaces

The Stereo2 is an inspection drone specifically designed for confined interior spaces, without GPS or conventional visual cues. Its optical stabilization system, carbon protection cage and featherweight make it an essential ally for complex missions.

 

Ideal for :

  • Vats, silos, closed tanks, overhead galleries ;
  • Structures requiring hovering or fine maneuvers ;
  • Post-disaster inspections or in areas with vertical access.

Thanks to its 4K camera and integrated lighting, it captures high-definition images even in dark or dusty environments. It can be deployed by a single person, in less than 10 minutes.

In Rouen, Le Havre and Dieppe, Multinnov has become a key partner for visual inspection operations in confined spaces. Thanks to our Roview2 and Stereo2 robots, we can intervene more quickly, more safely, and with a quality of analysis that enables operators to make the right decisions, at the right time.

Our commitment: to provide a service that is technical, responsive and tailor-made, in the interests of industrial efficiency, plant safety and cost optimization.
