    Dangerosité Des Pipelines: Origine: The Journal Pipeline Integrity - Vol. 4 - N°2

    Uploaded by

    Hamza Bouhaouchine
    This document compares the safety risks of different modes of energy transport. It finds that pipelines have lower factors than other modes like road trucks for deaths, explosions, and injuries. The document also analyzes pipeline incident data from the US and Europe, finding that Europe has had lower incident rates per 1000 km since the 1970s. Finally, it examines causes of pipeline faults and gas loss in offshore gas pipelines in England, noting that external corrosion and interference are leading causes of both faults and gas loss, while pipe defects are a major cause of faults detected by inline inspections.
