The overall objective of the proposed project is to develop a systems approach to pipeline integrity and health management. To achieve this, we propose to follow a multi-disciplinary science, engineering, and operational approach to realize a comprehensive and state-of-the-art solution. We intend to leverage existing technologies and methods and invent new ones as needed. The approach is innovative and unique in its comprehensive integrative perspective and in its focus on providing practical solutions while advancing the critical scientific and engineering foundations.
