A natural gas transmission pipeline operator located in Asia Pacific engaged Frontline Integrity to support the enhancement of their approach to managing Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) threats across their extensive, multi-diameter pipeline network.
Frontline Integrity was engaged by a gas transmission pipeline operator in South America to enhance their integrity management program through the production of a framework to manage the threat of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) along the transmission network, considering both High pH and Near Neutral pH, axial and circumferential cracks.
Frontline Integrity was engaged by a gas transmission pipeline operator in Africa to maximise the value of future ILI to their integrity management program through the production of a threat-driven ILI specification.
Frontline Integrity were asked to support the analysis of seam weld fatigue cracks identified as part of a targeted external Ultrasonic Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD) inspection campaign for an iron ore slurry transmission pipeline operator.
Having recently identified a leak caused by a circumferential SCC defect, an operator reached out to Frontline Integrity to develop a susceptibility-led approach for evaluating the severity of the threat along their pipeline.
Frontline Integrity were asked to improve the risk management of concentrate and tailings export pipelines for a slurry pipeline operator. We led a number of PIMS workshops with the customer to develop a roadmap for the transition from a reactive to a proactive style of integrity management.
An offshore gas field operator requested a fitness for purpose assessment to support the re-commissioning of a 40-year-old subsea wet gas pipeline system with a complex operational history.
We deployed a team of experienced Principal Engineers to an operator in the Middle East to review the documented PIMS and visit the site to understand its actual day-to-day implementation. Within six weeks, we presented prioritised recommendations and action plan steps.
To feed into an operator’s integrity management strategy, we were requested to evaluate the threat of fatigue cracking along a 200km onshore liquid pipeline.
We undertook a per pipeline threat ranking and generated a pipeline integrity action plan to support risk management activities for an offshore field operator assessing the risk of Hydrogen Induced Cracking (HIC) along their network.
We provided support to a gas transmission operator in South America during a multi-technology In-line Inspection (ILI) tool campaign as part of an overall Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) management program.
We created an assessment framework to support an onshore gas transmission operator when evaluating the threat of Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) during a system wide evaluation.
When a liquid pipeline operator questioned the suitability of their current choice of ILI tools, Frontline Integrity supported them with future ILI tool selection to target current threats to the pipeline integrity.
We supported an iron ore slurry pipeline operator who carried out validation work in the form of burst testing. Frontline Integrity performed calculations in line with API 579 Part 9 Level 2, as well as various sensitivities, to directly compare the burst test results of various pipe spool sections.
An evaluation of tool performance reviewing detection, identification and sizing of any reported planar indications.
We supported Core Group to provide SCC training and to develop an SCC screening procedure for a network of pipelines.
We reviewed the design of a newly installed system offshore India made up of a flexible riser and a multi-diameter subsea carbon steel pipework.
We helped NTS complete burst tests and evaluate the results after they removed a number of pipe joints from service which contained cracking.
We helped NTS develop a reactivation plan for a section of pipeline which had been isolated due to integrity concerns.
