Abstract:
Since the principles of the free market economy were introduced in Poland, the increased interest of managers has been noticed in acquiring modern management methods and implementing them in different spheres of business activity. More and more companies use benchmarking, outsourcing, lean management, strategic scorecard or competence management in their business practice. Awareness of managers regarding modern approaches that reflect the world's best practical achievements is important in itself. But no less important is the understanding that management methods cannot be always applied and not by everyone, so there are also some serious risks. Inappropriate use of the concept of management can lead a company to the crisis and fall when, in its turn, the proper understanding and its further application can protect the company against those risks. It is important to determine what for, when and how to use the concept. This article presents the results of the pilot studies conducted among companies in Podlasie on the application and assessment of the suitability of modern management methods. The aim of the research presented in this article was to identify whether and to what extent the Podlasie companies use modern methods of management. The study was carried out in the first quarter of 2014 focusing on a sample of 104 randomly selected companies in Podlaskie province. The research method employed was a survey carried out among enterprises.

Abstract:
This article presents research that aims to identify waste reduction methods used in the construction industry in relation to the following materials: steel, concrete, masonry products, finishing products (i.e., ceramic, and stone tiles), and wood and the dependence between the use of these methods and the size of the construction company. The research is based on surveys conducted amongst construction site managers in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. In the research, 13 methods of reducing construction waste were analyzed using Pearson’s independence test and the SPSS-26 software. Methods of reducing construction waste were identified. The study determined the frequency with which waste reduction methods in each material group were used, depending on the size of the company. Amongst the 13 methods analyzed, the ones which demonstrate a relationship between frequency of methods and size of the company were identified (for all groups of materials): the use of monitoring systems, reuse of materials within the construction, use of prefabricated elements, adequate storage, and engagement of subcontractors. In the case of the other tested methods, no such relationship was found.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study is to compare the approaches taken by a variety of energy regulators to implement benchmarking for distribution network companies. The findings shall serve as baseline for development of the incentive based methodology. Research methods: Based on the practical significance of the research problem we used systemic, historical and logical generalization methods of research in the performance of the work. Scientific abstraction, analysis and synthesis methods are also used. Results: To evaluate the effectiveness of Georgian companies we can’t use the comparative analysis’s methods that are used by the EU Regulators, because the market is monopolized and the companies don’t have a similar structure and financial conditions. Conclusions: As a result, in Georgia it’s much better to use the Activity Based Costing (ABC) method for a short-term analysis and international comparative analysis for the long-term period.

Abstract:
Purpose: The aim of the article is to identify the quality control methods used in companies producing packaging and to obtain knowledge of the scope of the use of optical sensors. Design/methodology/approach: Enterprises located in Poland in the Greater Poland Voivodeship, producing paper, board, corrugated and plastic packaging. The triangulation strategy was used in the study in which Computer Assisted Web Interview (CATI), Individual In-depth Interviews (IDIs), and Case Study were applied. The subject of research was the identification of quality control methods at individual stages of packaging production and the responsibility for carrying it out, as well as the method of presenting the control results. In addition, the use of optical sensors for quality control was assessed. Findings: Digitalization of manufacturing leading to the Industry 4.0 concept provides novel tools for quality control and data storing. It enables real-time data collection and processing for even better even better management of the production process and quality control. However, the concept of Industry 4.0 (including Big Data Analysis, Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence, Neural Networks) is not new, still many companies find it difficult to implement it and benefit from its capabilities. The surveyed packaging companies are characterized by low use of the possibilities related to the use of more advanced methods of product quality control at individual stages of the production process. The potential for improvement is the area of process and product control through the use of optical sensors/actuators, etc., and the form of keeping records of the product quality checks carried out. Research limitations/implications: The results of this research are not representative, but they encourage the authors to carry out a broader and more in-depth analysis of the research subject on a national scale. Practical implications: Research indicates the need to improve the quality control process in the production of packaging and a wider use of modern solutions with the use of optical sensors. Originality/value: An article can be an element influencing the management to better select quality control methods at various stages of the production process. Keywords: quality control, packaging, control methods, optical sensors, Internet of Things (IoT). Category of the paper: Research paper.

Abstract:
Urgency of the research. Current development of digital technologies is driven by megatrends. Companies follow these trends and try to extend digital solutions to all areas of business. Target setting. Application of digital tools would be particularly practical for decentral executing companies. However, they have not yet been fully implemented, as the technological potential has not yet been sufficiently researched and adopted for the described purpose. Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. The literature analysis revealed that at present, digital tools are still not widely used for organizational purposes. Furthermore, humans still predominantly perform many diagnostic functions. Uninvestigated parts of general matters defining. In the course of a literature analysis of existing tools of organizational diagnosis, we encountered a lack of references to fully digitalized solutions. The research objective. The task is to analyze which of the examined criteria and dysfunctions of the organization can be diagnosed by digital tools; how conventional methods can be replaced; what are the advantages and disadvantages of digital organizational analysis, as well as which requirements must be met for implementation. The statement of basic materials. In this article, we compare conventional and generally defined fully digitalized tools for organizational diagnostics based on eleven selected criteria and seventeen dysfunctions. According to the requirements of the company management, organizational diagnosis is performed in three phases. Most of the applied methods are based on surveys, interviews, tests, observations, discussions and documentation analysis. Conclusions. Our research shows that the use of digital tools reduces the number of diagnostic phases and provides lower resource input for implementation. Nevertheless, the effort required for the design of diagnostic systems is very high and requires fulfilment of general and specific requirements. In this article, we present the general requirements for digital tools for organizational diagnostics.

Abstract:
Management accounting plays a critical role in decision making since it supplies accounting information that would be helpful to managers in making critical decisions for an organization. In light of this assertion, the aim of the study was to determine how the listed Jordanian industrial organizations used management accounting techniques to make financial decisions. The study employed the descriptive research design and used primary data to collect the information on the related objectives of the study. The target population for this study was the employees of industrial enterprises in Jordan. Specifically, the employees forming the part of the sample were the managers and non-managers (excluding lower-level staff) working in industrial companies of Jordan. The industrial firms from where the employees were chosen included the industrial firms listed on the Amman Stock Exchange. The sample size for the study has been 371 employees, selected based on the Krejcie and Morgan rule. The study’s findings supported the notion that budgeting, financial ratio analysis and activity-based costing are the most widely used management accounting techniques in these organizations. The results show that employees differ in their perception on the role of management accounting techniques in financial decision making. Specifically, the results of the study confirm the significant p-value (0.000) for t-statistics and f-value, thereby confirming that employees differ in their perception regarding the role of management accounting in financial decision making based on gender, type of job and years of experience.

Abstract:
This study aimed to answer the question whether time to market and competition pressure are important issues for new companies with a software products and whether they affect the development process and decision-making regarding releasing or the product. The study is based on the literature data and interviews with six technology startup companies. It investigated how the concept of minimum viable product is used by the companies for testing the product-market fit and how they apply principles of user-centred design for providing a good user experience of their products. I found that innovative products helped the companies escape direct competition. The development cycle was mostly defined by the industry standards and concrete customer needs rather than the competition pressure. User-centred design practices are widely implemented by the startups, but they are not always complete. In today's software market, the experience that the customers are provided with new products seems to be more important for the startups than formalisation of the development process and the product's time to market.<br>Den här studien sökte besvara frågan huruvida tid till marknadsintroduktion och tryck från konkurrenter är viktiga faktorer för nya uppstartbolag inom mjukvaruutveckling och huruvida dessa faktorer påverkar utvecklingsprocessen och beslut rörande produktlansering. Studien baserar sig på en litteraturgranskning och intervjuer med sex teknologiuppstartbolag. Studien undersökte hur konceptet av minsta bärkraftiga produkt används av uppstartbolagen för att testa hur bra produkten passar marknaden och hur bolagen använder principer från användarcentrerad design för att ge en god användarupplevelse i sina produkter. Jag fann att innovatina produkter hjälpte bolagen undvika direkt konkurrens. Utvecklingscykeln bestämdes framför allt av industristandarder och konkreta behov från kunderna i stället för av trycket från konkurrenter. Användarcentrerad designpraxis är vida erkänd hos uppstartbolagen, men tillämpningen är inte alltid komplett. I dagens mjukvarumarknad verkar kunders användarupplevelse i nya produkter vara viktigare för uppstartbolagen än att formalisera utvecklingsprocessen och produktens tid till marknadsintroduktion.

<p>ABSTRACT</p><p>The conditions on the market are rapidly changing and businesses in Sweden need to seize signals of change in time, in order to have a strong market position. The ability to make the right decisions and react in time is vital due to the increasing competition and a mistake can have devastating consequences for a company. The aim of this thesis is to investigate what tools and methods businesses use to analyse the surrounding world, which has lead to following research question:</p><p>How do businesses analyse the surrounding and predict trends and what factors in the society should a company be attentive to while performing an analysis?</p><p>Analyses of the surrounding heritage from a term called Business Intelligence, which consist of internal and external factors. This thesis focuses of analyses of external factors, in other words the surrounding. These external aspects enrich the understanding of the internal factors and together they are the foundation that strategic planning originates from. An analysis can be performed in many different ways for instance with collaborations with consultants or by observing the society. A World Mapping method can be used to chart trends or important changes and a company can also try to identify unpredicted events by using the factor X-model. Theories by Bengt Wahlström have also been used in the study to display how trends can be analysed.</p><p>This study will analyse large food producers who have established brands on the Swedish market. A qualitative approach has been conducted where six food supplier companies and three consultant companies specialised in analysing the surrounding have been interviewed. The method has been deductive where the empirical findings has been analysed with the theoretical framework. The outcome of the research shows that collaborations with consultants is a commonly used instrument and practical methods such as scenario planning and in real life scanning are preferred as visualising factors simplifies the managing of them. Media plays a significant role, both as a tool to search and track trends but also as a tool that can increase the affect of trends and unforeseen occurrences.</p>

Abstract:
Heeding current best practice, many teachers prioritize student-centered instruction as the most effective pedagogy to achieve student learning. However, preservice teachers at a small, southeastern U.S. university have expressed reservations in executing student-centered instructional methods when they become lesson facilitators. The purpose of this qualitative study was to determine whether probational elementary teachers have the knowledge and skill set to execute student-centered instruction and identify the characteristics of this method based on their preservice experiences. The conceptual framework consisted of constructivist, humanism, and social learning, theories . The four research questions focused on participants' understanding of student-centered and teacher-centered pedagogical methods, whether or not their understandings changed in practice, and what factors influenced those changes. Purposeful sampling provided 5 probationary elementary teachers who had graduated from the same university. Data included 3 semistructured interviews, 2 classroom observations, and a review of instructional materials. Data were inductively coded and analyzed throughout the collection process. Findings revealed that each participant practiced and could theoretically identify the characteristics of both student-centered and teacher-centered methods; however, they could not identify these characteristics consistently in their own practices. Findings indicated that preservice teachers needed more exposure to student-centered pedagogy. Teachers who develop proficiency with student-centered pedagogy may be better able to empower students to solve problems, make decisions, advocate, and negotiate relationships with others. These characteristics are the foundation for active citizenship making positive social change possible.

Abstract:
AbstractA mixture of qualitative and quantitative research methods are used in this thesis. By involving a number of logistics companies (i.e. the users of the transport system), a user-centric perspective is ensured. The idea is to gain a profound understanding of logistics companies’ needs and requirements by studying their sustainable freight transport acceptance. Knowing the determinants of acceptance makes it possible to design policy measures which attract logistics companies to implement sustainable freight transport methods and help decarbonize logistics. The theoretical background of this thesis is twofold: on the one hand, behavioral theories are used to describe logistics companies’ acceptance, and on the other hand, organizational theories provide theoretical support for the development of policy measures.

Abstract:
AbstractCollaboration between Academia and Industry must be considered as a path to innovation through the exchange of knowledge. Although this collaboration has existed for years by presenting and publishing together new methods in journals or conferences or through lectures or workshops taught by professionals with a focus on daily problems, differences in goals and timing are found as barriers for knowledge transfer. In an ideal scenario, this collaboration should lead to a win-to-win situation where companies increase competitiveness as it facilitates the integration and commercialization of new knowledge in their products, while Academia can obtain new research directions and additional financial power. In a real scenario, despite the efforts made to successfully carry out this transfer, there is still work to be done, since the literature shows that current methods used by Academia are not entirely working. In this chapter, the first section contains a review of published documentation that reflect the different practices that are being carried out for the transfer of knowledge between Academia and Industry to understand the current procedures for transferring knowledge, as well as the main channels used, and the barriers identified. The second section describes the new method or guide to facilitate this unidirectional knowledge transfer from Academia to Industry, especially when working with Emerging Materials and Technologies (EM&amp;T). This method combines a Learning stage—to explain the fundamentals about the EM&amp;Ts—and an Applying phase to explain specific strategies of how to come up with ideas to find new opportunities that link the emerging EM&amp;T and the company’s product strategy.

This chapter presents the under-explored avenue of using alternative or nontraditional sources of information to obtain data for the configuration of personalized insurance offers. Specifically, it illustrates how big data, synthetic data, and machine learning models can be used to draw up the risk map of companies in an individualized way. It also presents methods for constructing and offering insurance programs that are personalized to each business reality.

AbstractThe objectives of this study is to analyze the effect of profitability, liquidity, and financial leverage on the stock prices of property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The property and real estate industry growth of a country can be an indicator of its economic growth. This is due to the ability of property and real estate sectors to absorb many workers, and it has a large multiplier effect on other sectors. We used financial and annual reports from 48 property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2019 to 2021. This study focused on 15 chosen companies based on the purposive sampling method. The method used was a quantitative description with Multiple Regression Analysis. The results show that all variables simultaneously affect stock prices, nevertheless the profitability or liquidity variables affect stock prices partially.

Abstract:
The cash flows of technology-based companies show high degrees of uncertainty. As traditional valuation methods can hardly capture these characteristics, they are insufficient for valuing these kinds of companies. On the contrary, real options theory can quantify the value associated with management flexibility, growth opportunities, and synergies. This chapter assesses the corporate value of a technology-based company. By gathering information from historical cash flows and using Monte Carlo simulations, the chapter generates future returns paths and primarily uses them for valuations by discounted cash flow methods. The generated volatility is subsequently used to value the measurement carried out by real options theory. The value obtained under the real options binomial approach is about 40% higher than the one obtained by the discounted cash flow method. This difference can be attributed to the value associated with uncertainty and flexibility.

Full text
Abstract:
Work safety is the main aspect that must be considered by companies in carrying out their activities. One of the metal casting companies located in Klaten, Central Java is used as a research site. Work accidents are caused by the company's lack of monitoring of the running of activities in the company and the lack of awareness of the workforce about the importance of work safety. The main problem that arises in the company is the increase in the number of work accidents every year from 2021 to 2023. This can have a negative impact on the company and workers. It is necessary to immediately carry out hazard risk control which is used to control the risks of hazards that arise in the company, The purpose of this research is to conduct a study of the risk of hazards that arise. The method used to conduct research is the Job Safety Analysis (JSA) method. The results of this study are risk controls that are used to help reduce the increase in work accidents in the company. Prioritized risk control is the design and use of personal protective equipment.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT In the past decade, molecular microbiological methods (MMM) have significantly expanded the understanding of the microbial populations in several environments, including oilfields and associated infrastructure. These methods are now highly regarded as accurate, comprehensive, and useful to aid the optimization of microbial control strategies. The resulting information has helped operators and service companies to better assess the threat of microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) and act upon it. Nonetheless, despite finding acceptance in the industry, the results from these methods can greatly vary from lab to lab, due to the lack of a standardized protocol. In this study, we describe the joint effort of an initiative between operators, service companies, 3rd party labs and universities to establish a consensus on how to properly collect and preserve samples for molecular analysis, and agree on a set of lab protocols to allow comparable results. We show how all the stakeholders used science-based conclusions to decide on the most comprehensive protocols that balances easiness of use in the field and accuracy of results. This industry-wide effort to standardize these methods will have a profound impact on data collection, quality of data and assessment of microbiological threats in the field.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract A century ago, automotive companies developed the laboratory salt spray corrosion test method standardized in ASTM B117. Even then they knew this quality control test did not produce realistic exposures. Wet-dry cyclic tests provided modest improvements in correlation and have been used in architectural applications for many years. Innovations in the 1990s included a combined weathering and corrosion method validated by SSPC and automotive methods that improved comparative test results by varying the relative humidity and periods of wetness. Problems remained due to limitations in corrosion test chamber technology and the test methods designed around them. The automotive industry responded with new technical requirements for a new generation of test standards and chambers. As a result, today’s corrosion tests offer the promise of realistic results combined with high repeatability.

Abstract:
Companies need to employ new design methods and tools to remain competitive in today’s global economy. Design methods are used to help teams move through the different stages of the design process, such as during project scoping, concept generation, and concept selection. Concept generation design methods are meant to help teams generate diverse, novel, and creative potential solutions. However, most design methods are developed and refined based on studies with student teams. This limits our understanding of how professionals engage with design methods in practice. This is a case study exploring the design methods used by three companies during the early stages of new product development. These companies are from the consumer electronics, footwear, and medical devices industries, and each design team within the companies was tasked with developing a new physical end product. We identified that all three teams heavily relied on internal and external benchmarking and reverse engineering design methods as part of concept generation. Ultimately, the products they developed were all considered evolutionary, meaning that the final product was a slightly improved version of similar products already on the market. This contrasts revolutionary products, which can change or disrupt the current field in one or more ways. This research contributes to design theory and methodology through empirically studying how companies engage in the design process, identifying the methods employed by professionals, and raising new questions about design methods, especially translation to industry. This research also contributes to design education by identifying methods that professionals use in practice, which can translate to direct recommendations for improving project-based engineering design courses.

Abstract:
In this exploratory study, we use a web mining technique to source data in order to create innovation indicators of Canadian nanotechnology and advanced materials firms. 79 websites were extracted and analysed based on keywords related to the concepts of R&amp;amp;D and intellectual property. To understand what our web mining indicators actually measure, we compare them with those from a classic questionnaire-based survey. Formative indices from the surveys variables were built to better represent all the possibilities resulting from the web mining indicators. A MTMM matrix lead us to conclude that the formative indices are a good representation of the web mining indicators. As a consequence, the data extracted via our web mining technique can be used as proxies for the relative importance of R&amp;amp;D and the importance of IP, which would have previously only been measured using conventional methods such as government administrative data or questionnaire-based surveys.

Full text
Abstract:
A partitioning inter-well tracer test (PITT) determines the residual (or even remaining) oil saturation (SOR) in the flooded region between well-pairs. This type of tracer test can be used to identify improved oil recovery (IOR) targets, evaluate IOR projects, evaluate enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods, and improve reservoir description for efficient hydrocarbon production. Thus, the main objective of the work with inter-well oil/water partitioning tracers developed within the framework of the IOR Centre is to provide tools and methodologies to improve reservoir description for efficient management of resources. The present report aims to provide insight to its users on the deployment of tracer technology in the inter- well region of water-flooded reservoirs to determine SOR. In turn, this parameter can be used as basis to evaluate the efficiency of several oil-production related operations. It will explain workflows, expertise, and tools needed as well as the importance of the information obtained, and methods to obtain it. This report is directed towards operators, primarily to reservoir engineers and reservoir managers, and service companies, particularly those already engaged on the deployment of tracer technology or those who aim to begin this activity. R&amp;D personnel working in both operators and service companies may also benefit from the contents of the present report.

Abstract:
In 2010, the NAIC membership adopted the Insurer Climate Risk Disclosure Survey as a way for state insurance regulators, insurance companies, investors, and consumers to identify trends, vulnerabilities, and best practices by collecting information about how companies assess and manage climate risk. The survey’s eight questions cover topics including climate risk governance, climate risk management, modeling and analytics, stakeholder engagement and greenhouse gas management. About 1,200 companies participated in 2018. In this analysis, we used statistical methods to examine two main questions: 1) How do insurers across key characteristics assess and manage risks related to climate change? and 2) How have these responses changed over the past 10 years?

Full text
Abstract:
Pipeline operators apply inspection methods and technologies for the purposes of assessing, or providing confidence in, the operational integrity of pipeline systems. In-line inspection (ILI), hydrostatic testing, and Direct Assessment (DA) methods are well-established and heavily relied upon by the industry; however, as additional technologies and methods continue to be developed and advanced, a structured process is needed for guidance in application of other methods. This document was developed for use by pipeline operators and service companies as a technology independent framework in the planning and execution of pipeline integrity assessments. This guidance presents requirements for any inspection process including qualification, validation, and development of a performance specification. It should be noted that these elements are required in application of any inspection method; in this regard, any established inspection method could be applied using the principles in this guideline. This guideline was thus created with many similar components as established standards and procedures for inspections such as API 1163 In-Line Inspection Systems Qualification and NACE SP-0502-2010 Pipeline External Corrosion Direct Assessment Methodology. This work was accomplished through collaboration with PRCI pipeline operating members to learn the steps each use to justify equivalent understanding of line pipe for other technologies. The criteria used to justify the established pipeline integrity technologies in their development (e.g. ILI, DA, RSTRENG) were also reviewed. This project reports the instances in the public record of pipeline operator notifications to PHMSA for application of other technologies and the criteria, both current and past, used to justify equivalent understanding. There is a related webinar.

Full text
Abstract:
An industry survey, dominated by PRCI member companies, was undertaken to gather key information regarding the design, operation and inspection of well bore casing strings. The aim of the survey was to gather information regarding the design standards, fields, gas composition, completion configuration, operational details, inspection methods and type of damage found. Survey results representing 67 storage facilities with a total of 4724 wells were received. This represents approximately 16% of US gas storage facilities. Facilities with initial completion dates between 1920 and 1990 were represented within the survey. The date of conversion from production to gas storage of the responding facilities ranged from the 1920�s to 2000. Non-linear finite element analysis has been used to determine the significance of an isolated pit corrosion metal loss defect in tubing/casing strings subject to the bounding load cases. Pit defects of depths up to 80% of the wall thickness (t) and diameter 2t were investigated to determine the failure behavior under the nineteen bounding load cases. Nine full-scale burst tests were undertaken in order to determine whether existing assessment methods could be used to predict failure of casing and tubing. Failure loci of 2t diameter and 80% deep defects have been derived for casing subject to combined loading. Full scale testing has only been undertaken with internal pressure loading to validate the approach taken to predict failure.

Full text
Abstract:
A regulatory requirement exists for pipeline companies to maintain noise control policies and procedures for compressors and compressor stations. The Pipeline Industry requires guideline� to help individual companies to prepare such policies and procedures. This report contains a series of standardized Guidelines that could be used by gas transmission companies to develop their own specifications for noise control, applicable for new compressor package design as well as existing compressor station retrofit. The context of the work is to identify each party's responsibilities towards achieving the intended results, which should inherently lead to more successful noise control projects. The specification strategy is to maintain traditional vendor/sub-vendor roles between compressor packagers and component manufacturers. The content of the Guidelines request guaranteed acoustical performance for compressor packages, supported by field performance testing for certification of compliance to guarantees. This can be achieved during the specification process by having the purchaser establish specific design criteria, and be pre-establishing field performance testing methods.

Abstract:
The need to control the risk that accompanies businesses in their day- to-day operations, and at the same time changing economic conditions make risk management an almost indispensable element of economic life. Selection of the main aspects of the selected phases of the risk management process: risk identification and risk assessment are related to their direct relationship with the subject matter (risk identification to be managed; risk analysis leading to the establishment of a risk hierarchy, and, consequently, the definition of risk control’ methods) and its purpose (bringing the risk to acceptable level). It is impossible to identify the basic patterns of development of the oil and gas industry without exploring the relationship between economic processes and enterprise risks. The latter are subject to simulation, and based on models it is possible to determine with certain probability whether there have been qualitative and quantitative changes in the processes, in their mutual influence on each other, etc. The work is devoted to exploring the possibilities of applying the Granger test to examine the causal relationship between the risks and obligations of oil and gas companies. The analysis is based on statistical tests and the use of linear regression models.

Full text
Abstract:
The available literature includes numerous publications describing approaches, methods, and recommendations, for identifying, characterizing, and mitigating geohazards, as well and case histories of pipelines affected by geohazards and how their effects were mitigated. However, these publications are not comprehensive; separately provide information for identification, characterization, and mitigation; do not include all geohazards affecting pipelines; or may not have been developed specifically for pipelines. PRCI identified this gap and commissioned the development of a guidance document to succinctly incorporate geohazard management guidance into a single volume addressing i) the types of geo-hazards affecting pipelines, ii) the typical process used in practice to identify and characterize geohazards throughout the various project stages, iii) the techniques used to mitigate the geohazards, and iv) the approaches and methods recommended to project teams of owners, operators, engineers, and contractors to successfully execute projects. The guidance document is intended for a wide audience that includes technical and nontechnical managers at companies owning and operating pipelines, geoscience and engineering teams involved in studying and assessing pipeline integrity hazards, and construction staff, regulators, lenders, and other stakeholders involved in executing pipeline projects.

Full text
Abstract:
The U.S. natural gas industry is expected to import increasing amounts of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in the near future. When an LNG tanker ship arrives at an LNG terminal, the quantity of LNG transferred to the terminal is found by measuring the changes in static volume within the ships tanks. The LNG volume is inferred from measurements of the liquid height, along with tables of tank characteristics predetermined by a method known as �tank strapping.� Once transferred, the LNG is then regasified at the terminal before being sent to limited distribution companies (LDCs) or power plants. There is concern that the basis for uncertainty estimates in the energy content of the transferred LNG (typically taken as �0.5% to �0.6%) may underestimate the true magnitude of measurement uncertainties. Dynamic methods of liquid flow measurement, gas flow measurement, product sampling, and composition determination used elsewhere in the energy industry may reduce the measurement uncertainties at the LNG terminal, as they relate to terminal balances. Measurement uncertainties for conventional meters and equipment placed into LNG service may lead to more accurate LNG measurement and reduced lost-andunaccounted for (LAUF) quantities at receipt terminals. This report describes research to evaluate the measurement uncertainties associated with both static and dynamic methods of determining LNG volumes and energy content delivered to, processed by, and shipped from, LNG terminals. This was performed to determine whether dynamic methods are potentially more effective than existing static methods for accurate measurements and LAUF determination at LNG terminals. Another objective of the research was to establish which methods offer the most potential for reducing custody transfer measurement uncertainty and LAUF within LNG receipt terminals.
