Case Studies on Application of Indirect Inspection Technology and Methodology in Municipal Water and Wastewater Systems

Product Number: 51324-21056-SG

Author: Vignesh Shankar; Emer Flounders

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

Indirect inspection surveys have successfully inspected piggable and difficult to pig buried onshore Oil and Gas steel pipelines for decades. Indirect inspection methodologies such as ACVG, DCVG, CIS, GPS, leak detection, and DOC have aided oil and gas pipeline operators to monitor the health of their assets and completing mitigation to ensure their assets are functioning as per design, standards, and code. There has been extensive continuous improvement in monitoring oil and gas pipelines using indirect inspection technology. The water and wastewater pipelines have varying pipe materials. These pipelines are not regulated and do not have extensive literature, and dedicated teams to support maintaining assets in relation to external corrosion prevention, maintenance, and monitoring. This paper focuses on the application of demonstrated indirect inspection technology and methodology in municipal water and wastewater pipelines. The paper will discuss different pipe materials: coated steel pipeline, BWP, and PCCP inspected using indirect inspection technology, and present case studies.

Improvements to the Replica Tape Test Method (ASTM D4417C / NACE SP287 / ISO 8503-5)

Product Number: 51324-21157-SG

Author: Michael Beamish

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

The Replica Tape method is a trusted method used by inspectors worldwide for decades to measure surface profile height. Previous studies have shown the method to be highly precise and accurate, but an intricate burnishing technique and requirement to average two different grades of replica tape in some measurement ranges made the method challenging for some users. This paper details two proposed changes to the method: an updated burnishing tool and linearized measurement scale to eliminate the need for averaging. A study was conducted to determine the accuracy and precision of this updated method, involving measurements performed by 15 users of varied experience on a range of test panels blasted with varying of media and profile heights.

Key Points Specifically For Transmission Pipeline Coating

Product Number: 51322-17760-SG

Author: Ron Raphoon

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

The bulk of a pipeline coating is shop applied and those processes are typically automated. Because
the automation of pipeline coating has so many controls, there is little need to address the inspection on the body of the mainline coatings. As such, this paper will address inspection of pipeline specific coating types and their unique considerations in a field environment. It will address concerns around tie-ing into other coating types and compatibility.

Nonskid Basics: A Contractors Guide for Military Applications

Product Number: 37681-POD

ISBN: 978-1-57590-493-1

Author: Johnny M. Sanchez

$135.00

NEW! The U.S. Navy nomenclature for non-slip deck coatings or rapid-cure, slip-resistant coatings systems is simply nonskid.

Nonskid coatings are a complex coating system containing aggregates which help provide a slip-resistant deck in walk areas or vehicle traffic areas and most importantly aviation decks. The requirements for this aggressive high-tech safety feature must meet the manufacturer’s specifications which gives required ranges by way of profile depth, wet film thickness, and dry film thickness minimums and maximums, allowable application ambient conditions, and also re-coat windows for any particular coating to ensure maximum coatings life longevity.

Nonskid is a heavy aggregated polyamine epoxy that cannot be applied with traditional coating application methods.

This book provides guidance to contractors from surface preparation, primers and compounds, nonskid application, inspection, and nonskid failures and repair.

SSPC-QP 5-2022. Standard Procedure for Evaluating the Qualifications of Coating and Lining Inspection Companies

Product Number: SSPC-QP 5-2022

Publication Date: 2022

$109.00

This standard describes a method for evaluating the qualifications of coating and lining inspection companies who perform quality control or quality assurance inspection of applied coatings and linings.

The purpose of this procedure is to determine whether a coating inspection company has a corporate organization that clearly defines the authority and responsibilities of positions typically required for operation of a Coating Inspection Company, employs qualified management and inspection personnel, has established and implemented a viable quality management system, and has knowledge of industry technical standards and inspection practices.

This standard is a part of the AMPP accreditation program for firms. Although the standard references certifications and qualifications for individuals, those certifications and qualifications are administered through separate programs.
