Day 1 & 2
8am-5pm PT

This course is for engineers responsible for verifying and validating ILI inspections of pipeline systems in accordance with the new 3rd edition of API Standard 1163 “In-line Inspection Systems Qualification.” API 1163 provides requirements for qualification of in-line inspection systems used in gas and hazardous liquid pipelines. The standard is incorporated by reference into PHMSA regulations 49CFR192 and 195, and the 3rd edition is expected to be incorporated after PHMSA’s review.

API 1163, 3rd edition, expands and makes mandatory requirements that pipeline operators both verify and validate ILI performance as part of a pipeline integrity management program:

Verify: Ensure compliance with appropriate plans, procedures, and processes and that inspection conditions are consistent with those used to establish the performance specification(s) for the inspection system being used. A verified inspection should meet the performance specification(s).

Validate: Ensure that the reported ILI results are consistent with the performance specification(s). A validated inspection is one that the pipeline operator considers consistent with the performance specification(s) and suitable for use in managing the integrity of a pipeline.

The course will teach students practical techniques for verifying and validating a metal loss ILI in accordance with API 1163, 3rd edition. The course includes and provides instructions on the use of an API 1163, 3rd edition, spreadsheet recently released by PRCI to validate ILI results. Exercises conducted during the course will ensure students understand how to use the software, and they will help students build and maintain the skills needed to successfully apply API 1163, 3rd edition. The skills used for metal loss inspection program can also be applied to crack-detection and other inspections programs.

Assessing Cracks & Long Seam Weld Anomalies

Day 1 & 2
8am-5pm PT

WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND

Various forms of cracks and long seam weld anomalies are known to be present in pipelines, which can become a safety concern over the operational life of the pipeline. The most typical forms for cracking are environmentally assisted, manufacturing related and operational driven. This course will cover in greater depth the formation of cracking and seam weld defects and the conditions that drive their growth until they become unstable, leading to leaks or ruptures.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

Led by Sergio Limon, this 2-day, in-person course is designed for pipeline engineers and managers. You will learn the basics of how and why cracks and seam weld anomalies form and how to effectively assess them. This will include hands-on demonstration and discussion of pipeline samples with cracking and seam weld defects. Appropriate assessment methods such as ILI tools and pressure testing will be discussed as well as traditional and current engineering methods for determining their severity for response and remediation. In-ditch Non-destructive Examination (NDE) methods and technologies will also be covered and demonstrated with actual pipeline samples. Each attendee will receive a complimentary Excel based crack assessment calculator which will be demonstrated in class using practical case studies.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

Pipeline engineers, managers and service professionals who are involved with the operation, maintenance, inspection and repair of pipelines.

COURSE REQUIREMENTS

It will be necessary to bring a laptop to this course.

Pipeline Defects Repair Workshop

Day 1 & 2

OVERVIEW

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.

OBJECTIVES

To demonstrate existing and new Repair technologies and their application for specific defects uncovered during the defect assessment and NDE phases of pipeline rehabilitation.
