Abstract:
Gas pipeline systems are one of the largest energy infrastructures in the world and are known to be very efficient and reliable. However, this does not mean they are prone to no risk. Corrosion is a significant problem in gas pipelines that imposes large risks such as ruptures and leakage to the environment and the pipeline system. Therefore, various maintenance actions are performed routinely to ensure the integrity of the pipelines. The costs of the corrosion-related maintenance actions are a significant portion of the pipeline’s operation and maintenance costs, and minimizing this large cos

Abstract With the number of long-distance pipelines increasing in China,the excavation inspection and maintenance is the most important means to avoid the leakage of pipeline. However, the current excavation and maintenance decision-making models are absent to make satisfying results based on the comprehensive data of pipeline. To address this problem, a new quantitative risk-based model is proposed to guide decision-making on excavation inspection and maintenance. Based on previous failure cases, the model includes data about the surrounding soils as well as about the pipeline’s protective la

Pipelines play an important role in the national/international transportation of natural gas, petroleum products, and other energy resources.

In the quest to achieve sustainable pipeline operations and improve pipeline safety, effective corrosion control and improved maintenance paradigms are required. For underground pipelines, external corrosion prevention mechanisms include either a pipeline coating or impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP).

Natural gas transmission pipelines have proven to be a safe and efficient means for transporting the trillions of cubic feet of natural gas used annually in the United States. Since the peak of construction of these pipelines occurred between 1950 and the mid-1960s, their average age is now over thirty years. However, replacement of these pipelines because of age would be prohibitively expensive and unnecessary. Preventive maintenance and rehabilitation programs put into practice by the pipeline industry provides the key to ensuring the continued integrity of the transmission pipeline system.

Pipeline networks have been widely utilised in the transportation of water, natural gases, oil and waste materials efficiently and safely over varying distances with minimal human intervention. In order to optimise the spatial use of the pipeline infrastructure, pipelines are either buried underground, or located in submarine environments. Due to the continuous expansion of pipeline networks in locations that are inaccessible to maintenance personnel, research efforts have been ongoing to introduce and develop reliable detection methods for pipeline failures, such as blockages, leakages, crack

Abstract:
Reliability analysis of corroded pipelines is critical to the integrity and safe working of pipeline infrastructure. Aiming at less probability information is obtained for corrosion pipeline engineering, and the mechanical properties of pipeline with corrosion defects deteriorate caused by the accumulative effect of corrosion growth. Based on the quasi-static analysis method and non-probability theory, this paper presents a reliability model for assessing corroded pipelines with corrosion growth. In fact, reliability analysis of corroded pipelines needs to consider the interaction of multiple

Abstract:
As an important component of strain-based design, the tensile strain capacity (TSC) concept has been extensively used for pipelines that experience expectable plastic strain for both installation and service. However, some stress-based designed pipelines have experienced unforeseen plastic strain in the past decade that resulted in failure. It seems that the tensile strain capacity has gradually become an important requirement for geohazard risk management and pipeline maintenance of stress-based design pipelines. The tensile strain capacity of an X80 pipeline is investigated. The assessment i

Abstract:
Deposition of waxes, asphaltenes, scales or hydrates is one of the most challenging operational problems in the oil and gas industry, both during production and transportation. Direct inspection procedures, such as employing a closed-circuit television system, allow visual assessment of the blockage, yet discretely in time and, consequently, of low value for the purpose of ensuring production over time. Therefore, an indirect predictive maintenance method for systematic evaluation of the internal pipe section is herein developed, adding a much needed solution to the current body of knowledge.

Recently, there has been a need to carry out work on deepening the pipeline (plunging) in some areas, where the depth of pipeline location was found to be inconsistent with the relevant standards. That is, pipelines during operation can be partially opened as a result of soil erosion, and they also tend to lose stability as a result of various factors (pressure, temperature, soil water content, etc.) and rise up (float). Also, the facts of laying pipelines in the process of their construction not to the design marks are known, due to the "low" construction conduct, that is, when the pipeline i

Oil and gas pipelines are lifelines for a country’s economic survival. As a result, they must be closely monitored to maximize their performance and avoid product losses in the transportation of petroleum products. However, they can collapse, resulting in dangerous repercussions, financial losses, and environmental consequences. Therefore, assessing the pipe condition and quality would be of great significance. Pipeline safety is ensured using a variety of inspection techniques, despite being time-consuming and expensive. To address these inefficiencies, this study develops a model that antici

Corrosion is one of the major causes of failure in pipelines for transporting oil and gas products. To mitigate the impact of this problem, organizations perform different maintenance operations, including detecting corrosion, determining corrosion growth, and implementing optimal maintenance policies. This paper proposes a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) model for optimizing maintenance based on the corrosion progress, which is monitored by an inline inspection to assess the extent of pipeline corrosion.
