Description

The safe and economic construction and utilisation of pipelines presents an exciting challenge to the pipeline industry. This challenge demands an interplay between research, experience and pragmatism. The first Ostend Pipeline Conference in October 1990 addressed all these aspects of pipelines. The present proceedings contribute to the continued development of the pipeline technology. In particular, the objective of this second conference is to inform the international community on the major developments of cross-country (transmission and distribution), offshore and deep water and arctic pipelining since 1990.

The papers give up-to-date information pertaining to pipeline technology (future trends and project descriptions), pipeline design (standards and special aspects), pipeline materials (ferritic, austenitic and duplex steels, and plastics), pipeline welding (consumables, processes and weld mis-match), non-destructive testing (radiographic and ultrasonic testing, laser technology, defect assessment) and pipeline integrity (testing, corrosion, coatings, ageing of pipelines and risk assessment).
