Have a regulated pipeline in your production/gathering grid?

Know what you need to pass an audit and meet DOT and PUC compliance regulations?

Is AC current creating a safety hazard and causing corrosion on your pipelines?
 
Sign up for the Pipeline Compliance in the Marcellus Shale Seminar to learn more about how you can meet regulatory requirements efficiently.

Tuesday, June 14th, 2011: 7:30am-5pm.
Doubletree by Hilton - Pittsburgh|Meadowlands

New regulations are critical to oil & gas companies involved in production of gas in the Marcellus Shale.  Operators must determine what the regulations are, what parts of the pipeline will be regulated and by whom, as well as the role that cathodic protection will play in protecting the pipeline in a region still in flux.

PHMSA's regulation (49 CFR Part 192) redefines where gathering begins and ends and what qualifies as an onshore gathering line.  It provides increased oversight via more stringent regulations and penalties for pipelines that pose risks to the public. 

American Innovations and Bass Engineering prepare oil & gas producing and pipeline companies to demonstrate compliance to regulations during an inspection by providing turnkey solutions that ensure compliance and a safe working environment.

The Pipeline Compliance in the Marcellus Shale seminar features valuable information from oil & gas industry experts. Attendees will learn about cathodic protection (CP) for production operations, CP reporting requirements for pipeline gathering systems, pipeline safety regulations and more.  CLICK HERE TO REGISTER FOR THE SEMINAR.  http://marcellusshale.eventbrite.com/
