Pipeline Integrity Management Planning

Corporate pipeline operations and maintenance manualDevelop a comprehensive pipeline integrity management program to achieve regulatory compliance and ensure safe and costeffective pipeline operations.

  • Establish pipeline inventory.
  • Identify corrosion likelihood, establish consequence, and evaluate risk.
  • Establish procedures and keep records.
CorrosionWatch Software

mappingCorrosionWatch is a comprehensive but easy-to-use platform for managing your pipeline assets. Use it to establish pipeline inventory and pipeline integrity, and track ongoing pipeline activities. It will also help you record the results of inspections, track chemical inhibition, and manage maintenance programs.

  • Avoid costly pipeline failures.
  • Record pipeline history and manage change.
  • Simulate historical corrosive conditions.
  • Track chemical costs, treating rates, and overall costs.
  • Record and manage pigging schedules and maintenance history.
Field Verifying/Mapping

pipeline integrity management planningField verification and correction of EUB pipeline specifications not only provide accurate data for subsequent mapping and assessment tasks but may also reveal large potential savings in EUB licensing fees for discontinued pipelines that are incorrectly registered as operating. Western Corrosion maps feature an overlay of pipeline specifications and flow directions that are useful for operations, construction and accounting personnel.

  • Correct PL100 pipeline data.
  • Gathering system schematics for management planning.
  • Flow schematics for maintenance program design.
  • Develop pipeline gathering system maps for fields in British Columbia and Saskatchewan.
