While those are novel applications and would probably work well in a repair situation, those things would be better managed by software that alerted you when things like "inspection time had been exceeded" or if "pressures were out of range". Having to look at every pipe and piece manually to check it's stats is error prone at best.
"You mean we have all this stuff recorded and in a database, but I have to go look at it to get the info?"
You're confusing the use case. If course you can already look up the data and get alerts, and every modern plant already does. But getting hands on data when you're at the plant isn't just helpful for repairs or inspections, it's helpful for lots of things including debugging problems, helping new employees learn about the plant and "map" the processes to the physical layout of the pipes. Nowadays people lug around papers or tablets, so this would just be an extension of that.
