This document provides an overview of total asset integrity management and pipelines regulatory compliance. It discusses:
- The objectives of pipeline integrity management programs and the Alberta Energy Regulator's focus.
- The different regulatory jurisdictions for pipelines in Canada and Alberta. Pipelines in Alberta are primarily regulated by the Alberta Energy Regulator.
- The key documents that comprise a pipeline integrity management program, including the Pipeline Integrity Management Program manual, Pipeline Operations and Maintenance manual, and Pipeline Integrity Management Strategy.
- The various requirements for pipeline integrity programs as outlined in CSA Z662 and other standards, including hazard identification, risk assessment, inspection and testing, documentation, continual improvement, and incident investigation.
