Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage | Corrosion Management | Workforce Development

Date: Wednesday, January 21

Time: 09:00 - 10:00 AM

Session Insight:
Safe CO₂ transport requires careful consideration of material selection, corrosion behavior and fracture control. David brings experience in addressing these aspects. Conversations may also explore methods for detecting and assessing corrosion in conventional pipelines, along with insights into workforce competency and training within modern integrity programs.

Material Property Verification | Hard Spot Detection | Axial Strain Measurement

Date: Wednesday, January 21

Time: 12:00 - 01:00 PM

Session Insight:
Material Property Verification helps establish key attributes such as grade, seam type and wall thickness, forming a foundation for well informed integrity decisions. Jason also offers expertise on identifying hard spots and understanding axial strain patterns, particularly in regions influenced by geohazards.

Selective Seam Weld Corrosion

Date: Wednesday, January 21

Time: 01:00 - 02:00 PM

Session Insight:
Selective Seam Weld Corrosion presents distinct challenges along long seams, and high resolution MFL C inspection plays an essential role in identifying and evaluating these anomalies. Andres brings experience in distinguishing SSWC from other corrosion mechanisms and discussing suitable assessment considerations.

Dents | Engineering Critical Assessments (ECA)

Date: Wednesday, January 21

Time: 02:00 - 03:00 PM

Session Insight:
Dent behavior is influenced by geometry, loading and changes detected across multiple inspections, all of which contribute to assessing stability. Mark provides perspective on using combined inspection technologies to characterize dents – especially those with coincident features – for clearer integrity evaluations.

Geohazards | Pipeline Mapping | Depth of Cover Assessment

Date: Wednesday, January 21

Time: 03:00 - 04:00 PM

Session Insight:
Pipeline movement resulting from geohazards such as subsidence or landslides can be identified with IMU based mapping and deformation data. James is available for discussions on how resulting stress and strain insights support planning for monitoring and mitigation.

Challenging to Inspect Pipelines

Date: Wednesday, January 21

Time: 04:00 - 05:00 PM

Session Insight:
Pipelines with limited accessibility often require alternative inspection methods, including robotic or specially adapted free-swimming in line inspection tools. John contributes experience in selecting and applying these approaches to build a dependable understanding of complex or constrained assets.
