Pipe Damage Assessment & Repair

The most pressing pipeline damage questions—how serious is the damage, is repair required, and which repair options are suitable—are the subjects of this SI course. Specifics include introduction to field measurement of flaw characteristics using visual and nondestructive examination; estimating remaining strength of a metal-loss flaw using Pipeline Research Council International's RSTRENG equations and other methods; assessment of mechanical damage and cracking; and regulatory requirements of 49 CFR Part 192 and Part 195, plus related B31 Code sections. Repair options discussed include metallic and composite full-encirclement sleeves; direct deposition of weld material; and grinding/re-coating.
