Performing Pipeline Rehabilitation

This course is centered on the practical aspects of pipeline rehabilitation and covers both internal and external rehabilitation. The course goes into depth on how to safely rehabilitate operating pipelines using manual and automated equipment. Movement of in-service pipelines is analyzed in detail including the application and methodology of recommended practice API 1117. Other industry standards applicable to pipeline rehabilitation are discussed as well as how they should be incorporated into project specifications. Approximately half of the course is spent in analyzing case studies of field rehabilitation projects from around the world. Over 400 photographs are used to illustrate how the work was performed and the results obtained. The course presents techniques for performing the work with a combination of in-house personnel and outside contractors to minimize costs while maintaining clear lines of responsibility.

Who Should Attend Engineers involved in: Determining the best way to rehabilitate a section of pipeline. Preparing the project specifications. Performing the necessary engineering calculations to insure the project is carried out safely. Health and safety issues specific to rehabilitation projects. Field Operations Personnel and contractors who need to be aware of many alternatives techniques available for pipeline rehabilitation and their cost impact. Inspection Personnel involved in evaluation of defects and selection of proper repair techniques.

Technical Conference, Training Courses, and Exhibition

21 – 24 October, 2014 · Estrel Hotel, Berlin, Germany

Training courses: 21-22 October
Conference: 23-24 October
Exhibition: 23-24 October

This international conference and its accompanying exhibition will cover a wide range of issues concerning pipeline rehabilitation, ranging from the initial stages of evaluation of a pipeline’s condition to the steps required to undertake rehabilitation of the structure to ensure its continued fitness-for-purpose and prolong its economic lifetime. The event is being planned not only to discuss the latest developments in the industry, but also to showcase some of the industry’s latest achievements, and to provide an unmatched opportunity of both networking and learning.

Two pre-conference courses will be offered on 21-22 October:

• Performing Pipeline Rehabilitation
• Pipeline Repair, Hot Tapping, and In-Service Welding

The conference programme, 23-24 October, will be of relevance to all involved in the operation and lifetime planning of pipelines transporting all types of hazardous hydrocarbons both on- and offshore – in particular oil and gas – as well as to those involved in their regulation and safety.
