Course description
CO2 pipelines serve as essential infrastructure for transporting captured carbon to storage locations. This course delves into the unique challenges and considerations involved in maintaining the integrity and operational efficiency of CO2 pipeline systems. Drawing from established industry frameworks such as DNV RP F104, the program provides comprehensive coverage of integrity management systems, operational controls, risk assessment methodologies, and contingency planning specific to CO2 transportation.
Participants will gain valuable insights into contaminant and water management, inspection techniques including intelligent pigging considerations, corrosion prevention strategies, and flow management protocols essential for safe CO2 pipeline operations. The course will incorporate emerging lessons learned from pioneering CCUS projects worldwide, including Chevron’s Gorgon, SANTOS Moomba CCS, Denbury Gulf Coast Pipelines Failures, Port of Rotterdam’s PORTHOS CO2 Pipeline and other international examples.
This timely training addresses an urgent industry need as CO2 pipeline networks expand globally, equipping professionals with the specialized knowledge required to ensure the safety, reliability, and longevity of these critical carbon management assets.
