Imperfections and defects may be found in pipelines associated with the inherent steel making process, line pipe manufacturing, pipeline construction or introduced during its operation. Not all imperfections and defects are injurious to the safe operation of pipelines and established engineering methods exist for performing engineering assessments to make such determination. Those defects that are injurious require repair. The operator must then choose from a wide selection of repair methods considering regulations, industry guidance, repair effectiveness, and practical details.
