Integrity management has evolved since the standard of “avoiding loss of life” was set. On the newest episode of Pipeline Things, Christopher De Leon and Rhett Dotson are joined by Keith Leewis to discuss the evolution of integrity management and its future trajectory. Rhett, Chris, and Keith discuss the history of integrity management, how it has evolved within the last 25 years, and what new technology can mean for the future.

Highlights:

• What is PIR and what is the history of how it came to be?
• How has the standard goal of integrity management evolved from 25 years ago?
• Are integrity management and its standards evolving enough with the influx of resources available to operators now, in comparison to 25 years ago?
• As regulations have progressed, what is the need for prescriptive regulatory guidance?
