FORUMSCorrosion and Punishment

Tuesday, March 24 • 8:00 – 9:00 a.m.With the success of the last two years’ forums, we’re bringing back John Clayton, Jackson & Walker, and Kevin Garrity, CC Technologies-a DNV Co., to discuss the legal issues surrounding pipeline failures. The recent corrosion-related pipeline failures have been highly visible in the news and now the U.S. Government is holding individual personnel—including non-management technical personnel—criminally responsible for ensuring safe operation of pipelines. In the PIPES Act, that responsibility is clearly placed on the senior leadership within operator companies. It is imperative that we begin thinking about the role of the corrosion professional in ensuring pipeline integrity and the potential liability.

Front Page Issues Session 1: Zero Leaks—Is this a reasonable goal? Tuesday, March 24 • 2:00 - 3:30 p.m.

Timothy C. Felt, President and Chief Executive Officer of Explorer Pipeline Co. in Tulsa, Oklahoma, will describe his vision of zero leaks for the oil and gas industry. Explorer owns and operates a 1,400-mile (2,254 km) products pipeline system transporting primarily gasoline, fuel oil, and jet fuel from Gulf Coast refineries as well as import facilities in Texas and Louisiana into the midwestern United States.

Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration Forum Wednesday, March 25 • 2:00 - 3:30 p.m.

Jeff Wiese, Associate Administrator for the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) Office of Pipeline Safety (OPS), will provide an update on the latest in pipeline regulations including casings, external corrosion direct assessment, internal corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, integrity management, and Operator Qualification. OPS will also provide an overview of its way forward with new pipeline regulations. This interactive session provides the opportunity to learn answers to your questions regarding these new regulations.
