Join the PRCI Design, Materials & Construction Technical Committee as they present research results for Guidance for Assessing Buried Pipelines after a Ground Movement. here
Presenter: Yong-Yi Wang, Center for Reliable Energy Systems Project Team Leader: Michael Cook, ExxonMobil Program Manager: Thomas Marlow, PRCI
Released July, 2019
Please join PRCI as Dr. Yong-Yi Wang, founder and president of Center for Reliable Energy Systems (CRES), presents his research results related to PRCI project for Conducting Strain-Based Assessment of Buried Pipelines (SBD-1-2).
The research conducted by Dr. Wang set out to improve pipeline design to better accommodate significant localized ground movement such as that caused by landslides, earthquakes, or subsidence/settlement. When such a ground movement event occurs along the right-of-way (ROW) of a buried pipeline, it is imperative that the pipeline operator determine whether the ground movement is a threat to pipeline integrity in order to protect those responding to the event, those living near the affected ROW, and the environment.
This webinar will discuss the research findings and provide guidance to pipeline operators responding to a ground movement event.
