Pipeline Risk Assessment by W. Kent Muhlbauer Pdf

The optimum management of risks emerges from the best understanding of risks. Risk understanding is now available to all, via efficient and intuitive risk assessment. This book presents the definitive approach to assessing risks from pipelines?an approach that overcomes the limitations of previous methodologies.As the definitive approach, the methodology must:*Provide clarity?generating immediately useful information to decision-makers*Be comprehensive and complete*Capture and integrate real world processes*Dispel myths arising from risk assessment past practice*Remove unnecessary complexity that interferes with understanding risk*Be cost-effective to create, apply, and manage.As with the author?s previous works, the recommended methodology detailed here is a practical, easy-to-apply approach to measuring risks associated with operating any type of pipeline in any environment. Risk assessment need not be a complex academic exercise. It should be a straightforward practice, used by ? and useful to ? any and all stakeholders in a pipeline?s operation.Some specific features of the definitive approach include:*The three critical determinants of failure probability?exposure, mitigation, resistance.*Using inspection information directly, intuitively, and efficiently in a risk assessment.*Measuring damage potential separately from failure potential.*Automatic and intuitive incorporation of interacting threats?weaknesses overlapping failure mechanisms.*The role of time-to-failure estimation in modeling corrosion and cracking.*Using hazard zones to understand potential consequence scenarios.*Representing all possible consequence scenarios with a manageable set.*The best use?not the most common use?of historical incident statistics*The essential role of the risk profile?proper risk management cannot occur without it.*Conservatism?both P50 and P90+ risk assessments are needed.*Making the risk assessment readily expandable?it should ?get smarter? as new knowledge becomes available.Herein lies essential guidance for keeping pipelines safe: Improving risk knowledge, leading to superior risk management, leading to safer pipelines.

Corrosion Control in the Oil and Gas Industry by Sankara Papavinasam Pdf

The effect of corrosion in the oil industry leads to the failure of parts. This failure results in shutting down the plant to clean the facility. The annual cost of corrosion to the oil and gas industry in the United States alone is estimated at $27 billion (According to NACE International)—leading some to estimate the global annual cost to the oil and gas industry as exceeding $60 billion. In addition, corrosion commonly causes serious environmental problems, such as spills and releases. An essential resource for all those who are involved in the corrosion management of oil and gas infrastructure, Corrosion Control in the Oil and Gas Industry provides engineers and designers with the tools and methods to design and implement comprehensive corrosion-management programs for oil and gas infrastructures. The book addresses all segments of the industry, including production, transmission, storage, refining and distribution. Selects cost-effective methods to control corrosion Quantitatively measures and estimates corrosion rates Treats oil and gas infrastructures as systems in order to avoid the impacts that changes to one segment if a corrosion management program may have on others Provides a gateway to more than 1,000 industry best practices and international standards
