Alaska Dept of Environmental Conservation - Leak Detection Systems Analysis of recent data from the U.S. Department of Transportation Office of Pipeline Safety (DOT-OPS) indicates that, despite stricter regulations and enforcement, the rate at which pipeline accidents occurs has not significantly changed over the last two decades (Hovey and Farmer, 1999). The statistics suggest that short pipelines will have at least one reportable accident during a 20-year lifetime and longer pipelines (800 or more miles of line pipe) can expect a reportable incident every year. |

In-Service AST Inspection & Cleaning Robotics This article discusses specific technical capabilities for the use of in-service, high density, ultrasound scanning for assessing the condition of AST floors. Topics such as safety and environmental risk reduction are also covered as well as the technologies cost-savings track record. The ability to desludge/clean the tank floor is an additional capability of the robotic system but is not addressed in detail by this paper. |
