Download or read book Pipeline Integrity Management Under Geohazard Conditions written by Mamdouh M. Salama and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-10 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book on Pipeline Integrity Management Under Geohazard Conditions (PIMG), includes 42 peer-refereed papers prepared by key industry subject matter experts. The papers compile the results of extensive research as well as assemble pipeline operators' experiences in tackling geohazard challenges for both new and vintage pipelines. In addition to the experts' papers, the editors of the book prepared an introduction to each section that includes summary review of the different papers in the section. The papers are presented in 10 sections addressing all aspects of geohazard integrity management. The fi rst section highlights the geohazard impact on pipeline integrity. The next four sections focused on the geohazard demand and its management by addressing geohazard characterization, monitoring, management and mitigation. The following four sections focused on the strain capacity by addressing strain capacity predictions, management and monitoring. The last chapter tied both strain demand and capacity through structural reliability and risk assessment protocols. The information in this book is not only intended for use by pipeline designers and operators but it is expected to also be used by regulators and standards writing organizations. It is therefore, the intention of ASME to update this book on a regular basis as new data, case studies and advancement of the state of practice become available.

Download or read book Natural Gas Pipeline Safety written by Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pipeline Safety Improvement Act of 2002 established a risk-based program for gas transmission pipelines-the integrity management program. The program requires operators of natural and other gas transmission pipelines to identify "high consequence areas" where pipeline incidents would most severely affect public safety, such as those occurring in highly populated or frequented areas. Operators must assess pipelines in these areas for safety risks and repair or replace any defective segments. Operators must also submit data on performance measures to the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA). The 2002 act also directed GAO to assess this program's effects on public safety. Accordingly, we examined (1) the effect on public safety of the integrity management program and (2) PHMSA and state pipeline agencies' plans to oversee operators' implementation of program requirements. To fulfill these objectives, GAO interviewed 51 gas pipeline operators and surveyed all state pipeline agencies.

This book was released on 2018-11-26 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pipeline Safety - Integrity Management Program for Gas Distribution Pipelines (US Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration Regulation) (PHMSA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Pipeline Safety - Integrity Management Program for Gas Distribution Pipelines (US Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration Regulation) (PHMSA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 PHMSA proposes to amend the Federal Pipeline Safety Regulations to require operators of gas distribution pipelines to develop and implement integrity management (IM) programs. The purpose of these programs is to enhance safety by identifying and reducing pipeline integrity risks. The IM programs required by the proposed rule would be similar to those currently required for gas transmission pipelines, but tailored to reflect the differences in and among distribution systems. In accordance with Federal law, the proposed rule would require operators to install excess flow valves on certain new and replaced residential service lines, subject to feasibility criteria outlined in the rule. Based on the required risk assessments and enhanced controls, the proposed rule also would establish procedures and standards permitting risk-based adjustment of prescribed intervals for leak detection surveys and other fixed-interval requirements in the agency's existing regulations for gas distribution pipelines. To further minimize regulatory burdens, the proposed rule would establish simpler requirements for master meter and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) operators, reflecting the relatively lower risk of these small pipeline systems. This book contains: - The complete text of the Pipeline Safety - Integrity Management Program for Gas Distribution Pipelines (US Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration Regulation) (PHMSA) (2018 Edition) - A table of contents with the page number of each section

Download or read book Reliability Based Integrity Management of Natural Gas Pipelines Subject to Spatio Temporal Corrosive Environment written by Keo-Yuan Wu and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pipeline integrity management refers to an approach of understanding and operating pipelines in a safe and reliable manner. In this work, firstly, a probabilistic predictive model for internal corrosion of natural gas pipelines subject to aqueous CO2/H2S environment has been proposed. The model regards uniform and pitting corrosion as two main corrosion mechanisms and has been calibrated with the experimental data in a deterministic framework. Methodologies of simulating and accounting for temporal and spatial variabilities of operating parameters have been proposed and applied to the model for field applications. The model has been validated against field data from eight wet gas gathering pipelines in a probabilistic framework. Secondly, a reinforcement learning (RL)-based maintenance scheduler has been proposed for pipeline maintenance optimization problems by leveraging the proposed predictive corrosion model and the Q-learning and Sarsa algorithms. A case study has shown the superiority of the proposed maintenance scheduler over the periodic maintenance policy in reducing the maintenance costs. Finally, the previous two parts of work have been integrated into a pipeline system integrity management software featuring pipeline health monitoring, corrosion prognosis, system-level failure analysis, sensor placement optimization, and inspection/maintenance optimization. A case study has been provided to demonstrate the capabilities of the software.
