Risk Assessment Methodologies for Pipelines & AGIs 2026-2027

Collaborative projects provide great potential for new learning, by tapping into the knowledge and experience of other operators with the same problems. This project supports National Gas and Cadent Gas in optimizing the safety of new facilities through appropriate layout and design, and in achieving ongoing improvements in the efficiency and effectiveness of the management of risk associated with AGIs on the high-pressure gas transmission pipeline network. This project also supports the project partners in achieving ongoing improvements in the efficiency and effectiveness of the management of risk associated with high-pressure gas pipelines. Typically on each JIP the Final Report or a Public Domain Document is made available for distribution to interested parties without restriction. This arrangement depends on the specific project and confidentiality arrangements for that project. The participation agreements for JIPs also make provision for publication of new developments made as part of the collaboration as agreed by participating companies, e.g. presentation of papers at appropriate conferences. Learning gained from each project influences the standards for gas transmission pipeline risk assessments published by the Institution of Gas Engineers and Managers which are written around the JIP methodologies, with input from National Gas Transmission, Cadent Gas, and DNV.
