The Integrity Management Program provides an optimized approach to system
maintenance. Inspection and investigation programs focus on finding metal loss,
cracks and dents that may exist in the system before they become problematic.
TransGas will continue to conduct detailed risk assessments of individual
pipelines and facilities to determine priorities for further investigations,
in-line inspections and maintenance. Ongoing support of research and
development of emerging integrity assessment methodologies and risk management
methods enable TransGas to make good use of current technology and industry best
practices.
