Foothills Pipe Lines Ltd. is the Canadian sponsor of the Alaska Natural Gas Transportation System (ANGTS), a pipeline project selected in Canada and the United States as the means for transporting Alaskan gas reserves to the lower 48 United States. Currently, certain Prebuild portions of the ANGTS are in operation delivering Canadian gas to U. S. markets. A recent system expansion of the Eastern Leg Prebuild to accommodate increased Canadian gas exports entailed the construction of Decompression/Recompression facilities at Empress, Alberta to enable high-pressure operation of the Foothills pip

Abstract:
Insect harassment significantly affected caribou behavior by decreasing time spent feeding and lying and by increasing locomotion. Effects of oilfield disturbance on behavior were most pronounced when insects were absent, suggesting that disturbance and insects did not have a substantial additive effect on behavior. When insects were absent, caribou within 600 m of an elevated pipeline and road with traffic, and within 300 m of a pipeline and road without traffic, had significantly different activity budgets than undisturbed caribou; disturbance effects were significantly greater in the site w

Elevated oil field pipelines may alter Caribou (Rangifer tarandus granti) movements and delay or prevent access to insect relief habitat. In an attempt to determine if the 40-km elevated Badami pipeline in northern Alaska changed Caribou use of riparian habitats at the three river crossings where the pipeline is buried, we quantified Caribou habitat use at all three crossings using time-lapse video cameras and aerial distribution surveys over three summers. We compared habitat use, behavior and duration of observations among pipeline and non-pipeline sites. We used a block experimental design

ABSTRACT Oil Spill response and clean up generally involves deployment of personnel and equipment to contain and recover product. Seldom do response teams get involved in stopping the release of product from the source of the leak. This is due to the specialized nature of the task and the risk that is involved. However the possibility of a leak with discharge pressures of several hundred pounds is a reality on most pipelines around the world. This is due to the elevation changes as it traverses hills and valleys. There are valves to protect the line and minimize spill volume, however there is

Following fierce construction controversies in the late 1960s and the early 1970s, the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System became a familiar cultural hallmark and the most iconic pipeline in the world.

TAPS forged overlapping and evolving petrocultures; rather than a uniform and static oil culture, the pipeline’s social valence ebbed and flowed with the passage of time and the transit of Arctic oil from Prudhoe Bay through Prince William Sound.

Abstract:
The world consumes approximately 5.1 billion tons of crude oil per year, with the United States and Saudi Arabia producing the largest shares [1]. Countries rely on various means for transporting crude oil [1, 2]. Large vessel/tankers transport oil at sea, while oil is transported inland via pipelines, railroads, trucks, and barges [2]. Unfortunately, some of the oil gets spilled into the ocean, freshwater bodies, and terrestrial ecosystems during its production, transportation, and use [3]. Usually, oil spills are caused by accidents involving tankers, barges, pipelines, refineries, drilling

Abstract:
This report describes a study to determine the feasibility of using an external power source to cathodically protect the pipe surface beneath a disbonded coating. The relative advantages of using a pulsed current versus those of a direct current power supply were experimentally examined. Two main tasks were carried out during the project period; they were: i) a cathodic protection screening study using a small laboratory cell filled with either 0.6 M NaC solution or Atigun Valley ground water and ii) a cathodic protection test of a steel pipe buried in Atigun Valley soil. The second task simul

Abstract:
This report discusses the use of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites for monitoring above ground pipelines and buried pipeline Rights-Of-Way (ROWs) using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) techniques. The main thrust of the research was to evaluate the suitability of above-ground pipeline support members as InSAR measurement points, and to adapt existing techniques to allow for precise monitoring of jacking and subsidence caused by permafrost degradation and dynamics. The study site at Prudhoe Bay, Alaska includes more than 60,000 horizontal pipeline supports. The known loc
