Planning for a Successful API 1163 In-Line Inspection System Qualification – Part 1: Process Verification
Are you ready to dive into the intricacies of Planning for a Successful API 1163 In-Line Inspection System Qualification? Please join us for this two-part webinar, where we’re joined by ISltd’s Quality and Special Programs Manager, Tina Matthias, P.E., who will examine the elements of API 1163 In-Line Inspection System Qualification.
In part one, we’ll dive into the steps required for your process verification including selecting ILI tools, project planning and preparation, the execution of the tool run, as well as the cumulative assessment where you review that the project was implemented as planned and the results obtained were acceptable. If the cumulative verification is satisfactory, then it’s on to validation, which we’ll cover in the second part of the webinar series.
In part two, we’ll move from the verification stage to validation. We’ll review the three different levels for system results validation, how to select the appropriate validation level, and dig into the level 2 calculation for determining the confidence bounds of the ILI tool’s actual certainty.
Part 1: March 27, 2024 from 11:00 am – 11:30 am CDT
Part 2: April 10, 2024 from 11:00 am – 12:00 pm CDT
📍 Location: Online
In these sessions, you’ll gain insights into:
✅ Process verification essentials
✅ Best practices for API 1163 compliance
✅ Interpretation of validation results
Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your knowledge and stay ahead in the industry! These webinars are FREE for pipeline operators so register now to secure your spot.

System Results Validation:
How the New 49 CFR 195 Regulations May Impact Your Operations
ISltd® regulatory compliance expert Chris Bullock highlights significant regulation changes, recommends a clear path and timeline for meeting them, and addresses your questions.
We discuss the applicability and new requirements for leak detection systems, increased use of ILI, pipeline integrity management, pipeline assessments outside of IM requirements, as well as new Texas gathering rules!
Managing Gas Transmission Line Integrity of HCAs, MCAs, and Other Areas – 49 CFR 192 RIN-1 Final Rule
Are you concerned about how to manage your gas transmission pipeline’s integrity in compliance with the new 49 CFR 192 RIN-1 Final Rule? Many people may refer to this as “Part 1 of the Gas Mega-Rule”. Our regulatory compliance SME Chris Bullock is back again to highlight how to manage integrity in HCAs, MCAs, and other areas.
We discuss the identification of Moderate Consequence Areas, assessments outside of HCAs, new and revised requirements for assessment methods, threat evaluation updates, and other related topics.
MCA Identification and Enhanced GIS Tools for Class and Consequence Area Analysis
ISltd® integrity management and HCA analysis SME Joel Lindstrom walks you through Moderate Consequence Area (MCA) identification and how enhanced GIS tools are used for class location and consequence area analysis. With the new 49 CFR 192 regulations, completing detailed class and consequence area analyses is more important than ever!
Tune is as we discuss the new definition and analysis method for identifying MCAs, class location determination, High Consequence Area (HCA) analysis, and will demonstrate how enhanced GIS tools can be leveraged for completing these analyses to create an effective integrity management plan with the new 49 CFR 192 requirements incorporated.
Navigating the Requirement of Natural Gas Material Records, Material Verification, and MAOP Reconfirmation
In this session, ISltd® regulatory compliance expert Chris Bullock addresses the new material verification and MAOP reconfirmation requirements implemented in the RIN-1 final rule.
During this webinar, we discuss the background of the MAOP regulations, material records requirements, and material property verification methods, as well as the requirements for MAOP reconfirmation to ensure traceable, verifiable, and complete (TVC) records and timelines for implementation.
Simulating Potential Liquid Pipeline Release Events: High-Resolution Overland Spread Modeling & Storm Drain Analysis
ISltd® pipeline integrity management and HCA analysis expert Joel Lindstrom discusses High Consequence Areas (HCAs) and CFR 195 requirements, new Environmentally and Ecologically Sensitive Area (EESA) requirements associated with California Assembly Bill 864, as well as the benefits of using high-resolution elevation data and integrating storm drain data for potential impact analysis.
RIN-3 Final Rule – Safety of Gas Gathering Pipelines: Extension of Reporting Requirements, Regulations of Large, High-Pressure Lines, and Other Related Amendments
ISltd® regulatory compliance expert Chris Bullock examines the new RIN-3 Gas Gathering final rule, which now includes roughly 425,000 miles of onshore gas gathering lines and the regulatory clock is ticking! This webinar examines the current state of reported gathering pipelines, the new Type C and Type R pipeline classifications, incidental gathering pipelines, requirements associated with each type, as well as the implementation and regulatory compliance dates.
Evaluating a Pipeline System’s Overpressure Protection with Surge Analysis
ISltd® integrity management expert Laura Harwell introduces surge analysis, outlines the 49 CFR 195 regulatory requirements, and discusses system application by examining what situations may require an operator to perform a surge analysis.
In addition to an overview of the surge analysis process, several overpressure mitigation scenarios are presented.
