The Essential Steps to Formal Pipeline Life Extension
As many of the assets in the oil and gas industry today are nearing the end of their originally intended design life, asset life extension has become an increasingly attractive option to avoid decommissioning assets, which is a costly and logistically complicated process.

It is not always about the age, it’s about the condition, and the impact over time.
In a recent article published in World Pipelines Coatings & Corrosion, our asset life expert lays out a step-by-step guide to the formal life extension process.
