It’s a slippery slope. (Or is it?)
With an increase in the number of pipeline failures resulting from earth movement of unstable slopes, the AER recently released Bulletin 2019-28 which requires that pipeline integrity management programs take slope movement into consideration. In this bulletin, the AER encourages all operators to: Assess integrity management programs and how they address risk to pipelines as […]
Classifying pipeline water crossings…there is a better way!
Identifying and classifying pipeline water crossings are key elements in creating an effective crossing management program. However, it can be challenging to properly do this using traditional approaches. The most common approach traditionally has been to classify crossing based on the scale of the water body impacted by the pipeline crossing. So, the larger the […]
