Conclusion Simple linepack assessment algorithms have a place where linepack is stable and linepack variations and uncertainty do not adversely affect leak assessment RTTM technology significantly reduces linepack uncertainty in transient environments and enables leak detection approaching the limits imposed by meter accuracy Static pressure testing is a useful integrity verification tool Matching the proper tool to the pipeline’s operation is critical November 17 18, 2011 Pipeline Safety Trust 2011 Pipeline Safety Conference * Training Response A critical component of any pipeline integrity management program Response protocol should be included in training and be enforced Controller can shut down the line on any suspicion of a leak Details regarding actions, reporting, etc. No internal penalty for reasonable judgment A culture focused on pipeline integrity management is critical November 17 18, 2011 Pipeline Safety Trust 2011 Pipeline Safety Conference * References API 1130 – Computational Pipeline Monitoring for Liquid Pipelines API 1149 – Pipeline Variable Uncertainties and Their Effects on Leak Detectability API 1161 – Guidance Document for the Qualification of Pipeline Personnel 49 CFR Part 192 - TRANSPORTATION OF NATURAL AND OTHER GAS BY PIPELINE: MINIMUM FEDERAL SAFETY STANDARDS 49 CFR Part 195 - TRANSPORTATION OF HAZARDOUS LIQUIDS BY PIPELINE November 17 18, 2011 Pipeline Safety Trust 2011 Pipeline Safety Conference * Contact UTSI UTSI - U.S. Headquarters 1560 West Bay Area Boulevard Suite 300 Friendswood, Texas USA 77546 Telephone: +1 281 480 8786 Fax: +1 281 480 8008 Email: info@ WWW: Daniel W.
