Fifth Quarterly Performance Review Meeting on the Contract ``Detection of Mechanical Damage in Pipelines''

摘要

RSPA invites the pipeline industry, in-line inspection (``smart pig'') vendors, and the general public to the fifth quarterly performance review meeting of progress on the contract ``Detection of Mechanical Damage in Pipelines.'' The meeting is open to anyone, and no registration is required. This contract is being performed by Battelle Memorial Institute (Battelle), along with the Southwest Research Institute, and Iowa State University. The contract is a research and development contract to develop electromagnetic in-line inspection technologies to detect and characterize mechanical damage and stress corrosion cracking. The first hour of the meeting will be devoted to reviewing the overall project plan. The remainder of the meeting will cover the status of the contract tasks, progress made during the past quarter, and projected activity for the next quarter.
