Keeping Our Pipeline System Safe
TransGas has an excellent
record of safety and reliability. Using engineering modeling,
assessments and investigative programs, to prioritize our system
inspection and maintenance activities provide TransGas with a solid
foundation to continue with providing safe and reliable service.
TransGas is an active participant in industry-sponsored research
associations such as Pipeline Research Council International Inc. (PRCI)
and the Canadian Energy Pipelines Association (CEPA).
TransGas
shares and collaborates in research with the pipeline industry and
assists with developing the scope of the research to address needs
specific to our system. Research results on
stress corrosion cracking, in-line inspection,
defect and
risk assessment and
mechanical damage have been invaluable in extending the useful life
of our system. Corresponding enhancements we make to our maintenance
programs greatly increase our ability to economically keep our
system safe and reliable.
