Review of Background Information The Consultant interviewed the client, reviewed current client specifications, QA/QC practices, and previous inspection reports. The consultant learned through discussions...

... the effectiveness of asset integrity or cleaning measures (much less real time) are simply impossible. When it comes to manual inspection during asset integrity digs or direct assessments, as with any manual task, there is margin for error. In the case of manual UT thickness gauging, there are a seemingly endless...

... to spills, explosions and increased downtime. The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) describe the threats above as time-dependent; however, they are commonly assessed with methods such as in-line and direct assessment inspections - whose measurement interval can range from months to years...

... ABSTRACT This paper summarizes multiple time-dependent pipeline integrity assessment case studies that were recently conducted on different oil and gas pipelines in North America. Internal, external, and stress corrosion cracking threats were comprehensively assessed considering historical...

... exhibit a lack of understanding and systematic approach in managing the CUI risk, globally. A joint industry project (JIP) on CUI has developed a methodology that would help identify, assess and mitigate the CUI risk in a systematic manner. Living in the age of digital transformation, the resulting...

... ABSTRACT Failure of water/wastewater mains can result in high visibility repairs, customer inconvenience, and replacement costs. Preventive measures such as condition assessment for early recognition of corrosion in aging infrastructures is crucial for agencies from resiliency, safety...

... and emulsion tendency, good product stability at various temperatures as well as passing key assessments for application via umbilical and downhole capillaries. INTRODUCTION There are a range of materials available for oil and gas pipeline systems and downhole tubulars but, if it meets the necessary...

... water, organic sulphides and oxygen containing compounds that can cause corrosion over time. Conventional corrosion prediction models are not relevant since hydrogen sulphide and significant carbon dioxide are not present. In order to overcome this limitation and to allow corrosion risk assessment...

... pressure, makes the sulfide stress cracking phenomenon an important issue in the safe operational condition assessment of Oil Country Tubular Goods (OCTG). Consequently, the adequate determination of fracture toughness value (i.e.: K-mat) is of fundamental importance for fitness for purpose evaluation...

.... INTRODUCTION Refrigerated anhydrous liquid ammonia storage tanks must periodically be inspected internally for integrity assessment. However, an intrusive inspection requires shutdown of the tank, allowing for atmospheric oxygen exposure to the internal tank surfaces, which may contribute to onset...

... ABSTRACT The construction of a port expansion project in Arabian Gulf for a major operator included the surface-based structures such as capping beams and reinforced concrete piles. In 2009, a criticality assessment study was conducted that established the requirement of an impressed current...

... ABSTRACT Direct assessment (DA) is a valuable tool for risk management used across the pipeline industry. To carry out DA, pipeline operators usually follow NACE (1) standards such as NACE SP0502, SP0206 or SP 0208. Each of these standards requires utilizing an appropriate model to assess...

... were attained through Fatigue Analysis and Brittle Fracture Assessment. In order to perform this FEA, an accurate 3-dimensional (3D) solid model of the truck frame was built by completing a laser scan of the entire truck frame surfaces. External static loads were applied to this generated 3D solid...

In this paper, field-proved guidelines for knowledge-based inspection, risk assessment, and risk mitigation of underground corrosion are highlighted which are specific to telecom...

...) coating systems subjected to simulated service testing. An assessment protocol is introduced for HT coating systems for offshore pipelines. INTRODUCTION Due to the depletion of shallow water oil and gas fields [1], there is a necessity for major operators to explore in deeper water (>1500 m) fields...
