Mechanical Damage Technical Workshop
The Pipeline & Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and the National Association of Pipeline Safety Representatives (NAPSR)
Houston, TX 80305 USA
The Mechanical Damage Workshop was held in Houston, Texas on February 28 - March 1, 2006. The two-day event included approximately 225 representatives from Federal, State and international government agencies, public representatives, research funding organizations, standards organizations, and pipeline operators from the U.S., Canada, and Europe.
The workshop identified existing technology necessary to prevent, detect and characterize mechanical damage of pipelines as well as the gaps in associated regulations and industry standards. The workshop also identified several technologies under current research which will be deployed in the field.
