Expand Your Pipeline Integrity Management Vision

TPA Corrosion Management Management Plans - Internal Corrosion (CMP-IC) are a proven foundation for quality integrity (SMS) pipeline integrity management programs
1994 - 2024
Oilfield production gathering system

Production Gathering

Transporting oil, water, and gas from the upstream well-field can impact the internal corrosion hazard profile. Implementing appropriate mitigation strategies can prevent corrosion initiation and growth of pre-existing corrosion damage.

Our CMP-IC deliverable has been proven to eliminate failures in high failure-frequency production regions with 45 - 60% reduction in direct integrity management costs.

Gas gathering network and gas plant

Wet-Gas Midstream

Internal corrosion associated with transportation of wet-gas downstream of processing and compressor station facilities is the leading cause of pipeline failure events.

Our CMP-IC provides effective mitigation guidance to prevent corrosion initiation and growth of pre-existing corrosion defects caused by stagnant water traps and accelerated top-of-line corrosion failures attributed to over-injection of methanol.

Non-Conforming Sales Gas

Gas transmission pipeline systems are vulnerable to internal corrosion attributed to episodes of over-life non-conforming upset conditions.  Non-Conforming operations contributes to wet-gas and corrosive fugitive fluid delivery into the normally dry-gas pipeline infrastructure which triggers unexpected internal corrosion failure events, and unexpected failure events.

Crude oil tank farm and shipping terminal

NGL / Crude Oil

Although steady-state transport of crude oil and NGL should not trigger an integrity concern, internal corrosion failures represent the #1 cause of pipeline failures, at an increasing rate of failure.

All internal corrosion activity is associated with episodes of fugitive biomass / debris / sludge ingress from upstream storage / pumping facilities.

Integrity plans must identify and trigger an appropriate response to upset conditions. 

Major gas plant facility

Refined Products

As with crude oil / NGL steady-state transport of refined products should not trigger an integrity concern. 

Nonetheless, internal corrosion failures represent the #1 cause of pipeline failures, at an increasing rate of failure.

All internal corrosion activity is associated with episodes of fugitive biomass / debris / sludge ingress from upstream storage / pumping facilities.

Integrity plans must identify and trigger an response to upsets.
