This report provides the most current technology and industry practices for the internal in-situ cleaning and coating application in an existing steel pipeline. This report presents general practices and preferences in regard to the cleaning, surface preparation, drying, and the application of a coating in a steel pipeline by the pig (scraper) batching method. It is applicable to onshore or offshore steel pipelines in all industries including the oil and gas gathering, distribution, and transmission industries. It is also applicable to welded steel water and brine handling pipelines.

Corrosion Control In Water Injection Pipelines

Product Number: 51322-17692-SG

Author: Jonathan Marsh

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Dubai Petroleum (the Operator) operates five offshore oil fields in the Emirate of Dubai (Fateh, South West Fateh, Falah, Jallilah and Rashid), in addition to various onshore gas production, storage, distribution and import facilities, and LNG import facilities. The assets within these offshore fields consist of approximately 80 platforms of various sizes, comprising central bridge linked processing facilities in Fateh and South West Fateh, and outlying normally unmanned wellhead production platforms. These platforms are linked by a network of over 150 subsea pipelines, of which over 30 are presently operational sea water injection pipelines.

Shale Gas Production Pipeline Failure - Case Study

Product Number: 51324-20698-SG

Author: Feras El Yaakobi; Sherman Kung; Connor Graham; Jeannine Schmid; Daryl Foley

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

Shale gas production is unique and presents challenges in terms of corrosion mitigation and pipeline integrity management. Many of these challenges stem from variations in production modes from the early stages and as the system becomes mature, with many variables involved such as frac flowback, H2S, CO2, iron, microbial, velocities, topography, O2, hydrates, and paraffin. When combined with economic challenges the oil and gas industry faces, these factors force producers to strike a balance between technical decisions and operational/cost efficiencies, which adds complexity to an already difficult-to-manage system. This paper will review a pipeline failure case study from a critical sour shale gas gathering system in Canada. The case study will cover the history of the pipeline from commissioning until failure, challenges faced, root-cause analysis, solutions implemented, and results obtained. The case study will help increase awareness about best practices regarding pipeline pigging, corrosion inhibitor batch treatments, and analytical testing used when conducting failure root cause analysis. It also serves as a documentation for a corrosion failure in a pipeline with a staggering corrosion rate of over 2,800 mpy resulting in a pipeline failure in less than five weeks of operations.

The 2021 US Gas Gathering Final Rule and the New Challenges to Pipeline Integrity

Product Number: 51324-21233-SG

Author: Bernardo Cuervo

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

The 2021 gathering rule changes the definition of a regulated gas gathering pipeline; more than 400,000 additional miles will be covered by Federal reporting requirements. In the past, most gathering lines were built in low-populated areas, with smaller-diameter pipelines, and with lower pressures of operation. They used to pose a lower risk than transmission pipelines. However, with horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing techniques, the volume of gas transported through gathering lines has increased dramatically. As a consequence of larger diameters, higher operating pressures, and several high-profile gas gathering pipeline incidents, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) issued a final rule that expands Federal pipeline safety oversight to all onshore gas gathering pipelines. Today, more and more gas gathering pipeline operators are performing feasibility studies to retrofit their pipelines and make them piggable. The purpose is twofold, to make the pipelines run efficiently and provide critical data regarding the condition of the asset, as in-line inspection (ILI) yields the highest per-mile discovery of anomalies.
