The development of a pipeline integrity management program requires a well-balanced approach. The goals for the development of a program include accelerating integrity assessment for pipelines located in high-consequence areas (HCA’s), periodic reassessment, integrating data for comprehensive assessments, improving the integrity management systems within operating pipeline companies, improving government’s role in reviewing the adequacy of these programs, and increasing public confidence in pipeline safety.
