Natural Gas Pipeline Infrastructure Showcase Repository

INGAA and the INGAA Foundation hosted the Natural Gas Pipeline Infrastructure Showcase on Capitol Hill on September 28. At the event, members of both organizations showcased technologies related to different stages of the lifecycle of a natural gas pipeline, from the FERC certificate process, to physical design, routing, siting, clearing, grading, welding, specialized techniques, restoration, integrity management, and emissions monitoring and mitigation. The event included in-line inspection technologies and tools for examining and monitoring pipelines for corrosion, cracking, and dents.

To facilitate further information sharing, our organizations have created this Online Repository as a virtual home for information shared with event attendees, and more. This repository is divided into sections mirroring the different exhibits at the event. If you follow the links, you will find instructive videos, one-pagers, photographs, informational graphics, and more.
