American Innovations / Bass Engineering Seminar
Pipeline Compliance in the Eagleford Shale: Thursday, January 26th, 8am-4pm
Holiday Inn Emerald Beach 1102 South Shoreline Corpus Christi, TX
PHMSA's regulation (49 CFR Part 192) redefines where gathering begins and ends and what qualifies as an onshore gathering line. It provides increased oversight via more stringent regulations and penalties for pipelines that pose risks to the public.
New regulations are critical to oil & gas companies involved in production of gas in the Eagleford Shale. Operators must determine what the regulations are, what parts of the pipeline will be regulated and by whom, as well as the role that cathodic protection will play in protecting the pipeline in a region still in flux.
American Innovations and Bass Engineering prepare oil & gas producing and pipeline companies to demonstrate compliance to regulations during an inspection by providing turnkey solutions that ensure compliance and a safe working environment.
The Pipeline Compliance in the Eagleford Shale seminar features valuable information from oil & gas industry experts. Attendees will learn about cathodic protection (CP) for production operations, CP reporting requirements for pipeline gathering systems, pipeline safety regulations and more.
The agenda for the meeting includes:
Registration/Continental Breakfast 8-8:30am Welcome 8:30-8:45am Understanding the Gathering Rule: What is regulated, what is not and how to comply with the regulations: 8:45-10:15am Break: 10:15-10:30am Pipeline Inspection, Regulations and Reporting Requirements for Regulated Gathering Lines 10:30-11:15am Cathodic Protection for Gathering Facilities 11:15-12:30pm Lunch 12:30-1pm Data Requirements to Survey an Audit 1-1:45pm Break 1:45-2:00pm Induced AC and Lightning Mitigation Systems for Pipeline Applications 2:00-3:30pm Ask The Experts Q & A Session 3:30-4pm
