Based on over 40 years of experience in the field, Ramesh Singh goes beyond corrosion control, providing techniques for addressing present and future integrity issues. Pipeline Integrity Handbook provides pipeline engineers with the tools to evaluate and inspect pipelines, safeguard the life cycle of their pipeline asset and ensure that they are optimizing delivery and capability. Presented in easy-to-use, step-by-step order, Pipeline Integrity Handbook is a quick reference for day-to-day use in identifying key pipeline degradation mechanisms and threats to pipeline integrity. The book begins with an overview of pipeline risk management and engineering assessment, including data collection and regulatory approaches to liquid pipeline risk management. Other critical integrity issues include: Pipeline defects and corrective actionsIntroduction to various essential pipeline material such as line pipes and valvesCoverage on corrosion and corrosion protection Identifies the key pipeline degradation mechanisms and threats to pipeline integrityAppreciates various corrosion monitoring and control tools and techniquesUnderstands the principles of risk assessment and be able to conduct a simple risk assessmentDevelops simple Pipeline Integrity Management plansSelects and apply appropriate inspection and assessment criteria for pipeline defectsRecommends appropriate repair methods for pipeline defects INDICE: Part One: Pipeline Risk Management & Engineering Assessment Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 2: Basic Concept of Risk Management and Risk Defined Chapter 3: Data Collection Chapter 4: Risk Assessment Tools Chapter 5: Hazards and threats to a pipeline system Chapter 6: Regulatory approach to Liquid Pipeline Risk Management Part Two: Pipeline Integrity Evaluation and Engineering Assessment Integrity Management Engineering Assessment Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 2: Pipeline defects and corrective actions Chapter 3: Pipeline reliability assessment Part Three: Pipeline Material Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 2: Line pipes Chapter 3: Fittings and forgings Chapter 4: Valves Chapter 5: Pressure Testing: Pneumatic and Hydro-Test Chapter 6: Corrosion and Corrosion Protection
