Pipelines are generally the most economical way to transport large quantities of oil or natural gas over states or even country. In order to extend its life expectancy, maintenance task has become more important nowadays. On top of that, pipeline operation risks can be very high depending on how effective an organisation is in maintaining its pipeline transportation or transmission systems. Even the slightest defect on pipeline surface can bring great amount of oil and gas leakage. This is also the main reason why explosion and fire accident rates are increasing rapidly in the world.

It is definitely a necessity for a pipeline professional to keep learning and be aware of the updated pipeline maintenance and integrity issues to ensure a more efficient and safer as well as profitable pipeline operation environment.
