Safety requirements for hazardous liquid and gas pipelinesfrom June 03 to 04 2014 in Dordrecht

First-hand knowledge

Media partner

This seminar is geared towards operators, planners and engineers involved with pipelines transporting oil or natural gas as well as chemicals, refined products or any other hazardous liquids or gases.

The seminar entitled “Safety requirements to consider when planning and operating hazardous liquid and gas pipelines” will be held on both days. On the second day there will be workshops on leak detection and Custody Transfer Metering Systems. You can register for either one or both days.

The lectures throughout the seminar will provide you with an overview of safety concepts and practical methods for performing risk assessment on pipelines. Critical infrastructures also have an increasingly important position nowadays. The protection of SCADA systems against cyber-attacks plays an increasingly important role. Relevant guidelines as well as protective mechanisms will be discussed to pinpoint solutions which can be implemented. You will also be shown a variety of methods currently being used for pipeline leak detection, how they complement each other and what options are available. These will be shown to be important considerations which should be considered, as early as the planning phase to minimise loss in the event of a leak.

The Seminar on the second day will give you an overview of Pipeline Design, available inspection technologies for the detection of leaks as well as risks and consequences. At the end a proposal of how to avoid corrosion and erosion will be provided.

These workshops have been developed to enable you to further your knowledge about pipeline leak detection in and Custody Transfer Metering Systems. By using real examples, systems for new facilities or retrofits of existing systems are designed and discussed directly in the work-shop giving extremely valuable and practical knowledge to the attendee. The workshops focus not only on the funda-mentals but also on the exchange of information amongst participants to vastly increase the value of attendance.

Pipeline Design: Ready for Inspection

In order to ensure that a pipeline can be inspected during its operational life certain aspects have to be taken into consideration at the design stage to ensure the use of in-line inspection tools. The major design considerations and operational para-meters of inspection tools will be introduced and discussed, providing clear recommendations.

10:00–10:30 h Break10:30–11:00 hROSEN

Pipeline Integrity: Ensuring safe operation

After an overview of potential flaws and anomalies in pipelines, the available internal inspection technologies will be introduced for the detection, sizing and locating of geometric anomalies, metal loss, cracks and leaks. The capabilities, detection thresholds and measurement accuracies will be introduced and discussed.

11:00–12:15 hROSEN

Risk and Consequences: HCA’s and geotechnical hazards

Operators face increasingly stringent regulations regarding consequences of failure of their pipe- lines. As a result, the assessment of pipeline risk increasingly draws upon High Consequence Area (HCA) analyses to help identify and mitigate potential consequences. There is also increasing focus upon the identification of environmental hazards, which could impact the pipeline, potentially causing such failures.

12:15–13:00 h Lunch break13:00–14:30 hROSEN

Corrosion and Erosion Protection of pipelines – nonmetallic solutions

Internal and external corrosion often poses a significant threat to steel pipelines. Nonmetallic coatings can be highly efficient protection measures. Requiring low investment as well as low operating cost. Interior erosion of steel pipelines occurs when solids are part of the stream transported. Exterior erosion occurs in situations like thrust boring or HDD. Polymeric coatings can be designed in a way that they provide corrosion as well as erosion protection.
