WHAT: Reduce Operational Costs and Extend the Life of Pipeline
Infrastructure by Automating Remote Cathodic Protection Systems
Energy and pipeline companies wrestle to control operating costs
largely affected by new government regulations, aging buried
metal assets, rising steel prices, expanding pipeline operations,
new interference points, HCA encroachment, restrictive land use
policies, heightened network security and an aging, soon-to-
retire work force. With operating costs on the rise, and
seemingly out of control, many CP and operations professionals
look to past best practices in cost containment through
automation. Many companies achieve solid business results through
deployment of telemetry and SCADA automation of remote assets and
now hope to expand this success to further optimize operations by
automating remote cathodic protection systems. This presentation
will provide examples of how new remote cathodic protection
systems are helping energy and pipeline companies address the
growing issue of the aging pipeline infrastructure and reduce
their costs while optimizing their operations.
