Book Pipeline Integrity Management Under Geohazard Conditions

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.

Book Techniques for Monitoring Structural Behaviour of Pipeline Systems

Download or read book Techniques for Monitoring Structural Behaviour of Pipeline Systems written by Christopher Reed and published by American Water Works Association. This book was released on 2004 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project did a thorough review of the potential techniques which could monitor the structural performance of operationally critical mains (those 30" or 760mm in diameter and larger) of potable water distribution systems. The objective was to increase effective pipeline management as it relates to predictive failure. Parameters studied were global, local and environmental monitoring and the technologies studies were continuous, remote and in-pipe sensing. Gathering data from range of different sensors(aircraft, satellites, within and on pipes) proved the most optimal, with the understanding that further study of newer methods is recommended.

Book Development of an Integrated Sensing System for Pipeline Integrity Monitoring

Download or read book Development of an Integrated Sensing System for Pipeline Integrity Monitoring written by Seyed Mohammadnaser Saber and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pipeline networks go through a continual process of decay and obsolescence which results from the passage of time, use, technological improvements, demands for higher standards and environmental factors. Out of sight, and therefore out of mind, pipeline infrastructure deteriorates and fails without recognition, until the problem becomes so serious that the consequences are apparent above ground or elsewhere in the system, long after the waste of valuable resources has begun. Hence pipeline integrity monitoring has been one of the most seeking areas of references.

Book MONITORING TECHNOLOGY FOR EARLY DETECTION OF INTERNAL CORROSION FOR PIPELINE INTEGRITY

Download or read book MONITORING TECHNOLOGY FOR EARLY DETECTION OF INTERNAL CORROSION FOR PIPELINE INTEGRITY written by Glenn M. Light and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transmission gas pipelines are an important part of energy-transportation infrastructure vital to the national economy. The prevention of failures and continued safe operation of these pipelines are therefore of national interest. These lines, mostly buried, are protected and maintained by protective coating and cathodic protection systems, supplemented by periodic inspection equipped with sensors for inspection. The primary method for inspection is ''smart pigging'' with an internal inspection device that traverses the pipeline. However, some transmission lines are however not suitable for ''pigging'' operation. Because inspection of these ''unpiggable'' lines requires excavation, it is cost-prohibitive, and the development of a methodology for cost-effectively assessing the structural integrity of ''unpiggable'' lines is needed. This report describes the laboratory and field evaluation of a technology called ''magnetostrictive sensor (MsS)'' for monitoring and early detection of internal corrosion in known susceptible sections of transmission pipelines. With the MsS technology, developed by Southwest Research Institute{reg_sign} (SwRI{reg_sign}), a pulse of a relatively low frequency (typically under 100-kHz) mechanical wave (called guided wave) is launched along the pipeline and signals reflected from defects or welds are detected at the launch location in the pulse-echo mode. This technology can quickly examine a long length of piping for defects, such as corrosion wastage and cracking in circumferential direction, from a single test location, and has been in commercial use for inspection of above-ground piping in refineries and chemical plants. The MsS technology is operated primarily in torsional guided waves using a probe consisting of a thin ferromagnetic strip (typically nickel) bonded to a pipe and a number of coil-turns (typically twenty or so turns) wound over the strip. The MsS probe is relatively inexpensive compared to other guided wave approaches, and can be permanently mounted and buried on a pipe at a modest cost to allow long-term periodic data collection and comparison for accurate tracking of condition changes for cost-effective assessment of the integrity of the susceptible sections of pipeline. The results of work conducted in this project, with the collaboration from Clock Spring{reg_sign} and cooperation with El Paso Corporation, showed that the MsS probe indeed can be permanently installed on a pipe and buried for long-term monitoring of pipe condition changes. It was found however that the application of the MsS to monitoring of bitumen-coated pipelines is presently limited because of very high wave attenuation caused by the bitumen-coating and surrounding soil and resulting loss in defect detection sensitivity and reduction in monitoring range. Based on these results, it is recommended that the MsS monitoring methodology be used in benign, relatively low-attenuation sections of pipelines (for example, sleeved sections of pipeline frequently found at road crossings and pipelines with fusion epoxy coating). For bitumen-coated pipeline applications, the MsS methodology needs to increase its power to overcome the high wave attenuation problem and to achieve reasonable inspection and monitoring capability.
