AbstractFrom an analysis of incident and annual data filed with the Office of Pipeline Safety OPS, the project team identified thefactors that effect accidents on gas pipelines. Since the normalizing of the data was not always possible, the authors ofthis report used indirect and inferential approaches in the analysis. The ALTRN database, the incident database from1970 to 1981, while older and having many errors, was used extensively in this report because it contains much moreinformation than the later PIP and TLEAK database, the incident databases from 1982 to 1994. Also, because theproperty damage threshold for reporting incidents was an order of magnitude lower in ALTRN than in TLEAK, the numberof incidents reported was also an order of magnitude larger. The larger database facilitated the analysis because therewas always a significant number of records to examine containing any of the variables considered.It was found that pipe wall thickness, depth of cover and pipe manufacture are important factors in the occurrence ofincidents.17.

1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARYThis report has been produced as part of a study to analyze the United States Department ofTransportation USDOT Research and Special Programs Administration RSPA - Oftice ofPipeline Safety OPS database on gas transmission pipeline incidents to determine the factorsthat are important in the occurrence of those incidents. The study also included the analysis ofa second OPS database of annual reports submitted by all natural gas transmission pipelineoperators.The report contains the analyses performed and the resulting observations, conclusions andrecommendations based on the study. The databases were ~lso studied in detail. Errors andproblems found in the databases are identified in Appendix A2 of this report.The major observations, conclusions and recommendations are summarized in Section 1.1,below, by topic area.1.1 OBSERVATIONS AND CONCLUSIONSINCIDENT CAUSE. The primary cause of incidents, as reported from 1970 to 1993, is "outsideforce". This is followed by "construction defect-material failure". In the most recent years ofreporting, the "other" category is the second largest category and almost as large as damageby outside force.CORROSION. Coating and cathodic protection are very important in reducing corrosion incidentrates. The average incident rates for the period of record 1970 to 1993 are 0.14 and 0.59 inci-dents/i ,000 mi-yr respectively for coated and uncoated pipe. The average incident rates for theperiod of record 1970 to 1993 are 0.17 and 0.40 incidents/i ,000 mi-yr respectively for protectedand unprotected pipe.DEPTH OF COVER. Inadequate depth of cover is a primary factor in outside force incidents.LAND USE VS. INCIDENTS. Where undeveloped land use becomes rural, the dominant cause ofincidents is outside force. The total number of incidents in the group under study is limited;however, there is a clear trend that outside force becomes the dominant cause of incidents.When the land use near a pipeline is more intense, the dominant source of incidents is outsideforce. This leads to the conclusion that the system becomes more vulnerable to third partydamage when development encroaches on a pipeline.PIPELINE MANUFACTURE. Although complete normalization of the data is not possible, it is clearthat electric resistance welded pipe installed in the 1940's and the 1970's has a high rate ofmaterial failure. -I

PIPELINE AGE VS; INCIDENTS Th~ age of a pipeline has a relationship to the cause and numberof incidents of transmission pipelines.PIPE WALL THICKNESS. Pipe wall thickness is a key factor in pipeline safety and reduced inci-dent rates.INCIDENT PRESSURE. The material defect cause of incidents displays sensitivity to the incidentpressure as a percent of MAOP. As the incident pressure increases as a percent of MAOP,material defect increases as the percent cause to a point where it reaches 82% at incidentpressure equal to MAOP.1.2 RECOMMENDATIONSINCIDENT CAUSE. The number of categories used to classify the cause of the incident on thegas transmission incident form should be increased to generate more informative and usefulresponses by the operators.DEPTH OF COVER. The industry should be alert to an increased risk of outside force incidentsfor older pipelines installed at depths that would not satisfy the pipeline safety standards in49CFR Part 192. The current incident form should be modified to include depth of cover infor-mation.DATABASE INTEGRITY. The original written reports submitted to RSPAJOPS should be investi-gated to ensure that if data was entered on the form they should also have been entered in thedatabase. Missing data in the database suggest that some of the data entered in the reportswere not entered into the computer database. The original incident data forms should be re-viewed and the databases corrected accordingly.PIPELINE MANUFACTURE. It is recommended that the total miles of pipe by type of manufacturebe determined in order to normalize the data. In this way one could determine the effective-ness of each type of manufacture in resisting incidents caused by construction or material de-fect.2.0 INTRODUCTIONThe purpose of this report is to analyze the various factors that contribute to the rate of occur-rence of incidents in gas transmission pipelines. As part of the analysis performed, factorswere considered by their importance in causing incidents. The analysis was performed on theResearch and Special Programs Administration RSPA - Office of Pipeline.Safety OPS data-base 2

2.1 RSPNOPS DATABASE DESCRIPTIONThe incident reports database was initiated in 1970 and consists of two separate components.The first component is the compilation of incident reports tiled by operators whenever an inci-dent as defined by OPS takes place. The second component, also filed by the operators, is anannual report that summarizes the system for the past year. The contents of each componenthave changed several times during the period from 1970 to the present. The two databasesare further divided into several separate databases reflecting changes in the reporting require-ments over the years. A summary of the databases is presented below:2.2 GAS TRANSMISSION PIPELINE DATABASE2.2.1 INcIDENT REPORTS DESCRIPTIONFILENAMERSPAFORMRSPA FORM TITLEFORMDATERECORDSFROM -TOALTRN7100.2Leak or Test Failure ReportGas Transmission & Gathering Systems1-70`70 --- `81PIP7100.2Leak or Test Failure ReportGas Transmission & Gathering Systems1-70`82 --- `84TLEAK7100.2Incident ReportGas Transmission & Gathering Systems3-84`84 --- `93FILE NAMEALTRN Detailed incident reports required.

The minimum property damage criteria is $5,000. The database is very similar to ALTRN but not identical and therefore the two cannot be directly combined.TLEAK This incident reports database contains a fraction of the number of fields in ALTRN and has many fewer records because of the minimum property damage criteria which was raised to $50,000.2.2.2 ANNUAL REPORTS DEFINITIONFILE INAME IRSPAFORMRSPA FORM - TITLEFORM 1DATE ~RECORDSFROM - TOA1707971 00.2-1Annual Report for Calendar Year1 9__Gas Transmission Gathering_Systems10-70`70 --- `79AT808171 00.2-1 *Annual Report for Calendar Year.1 9__Gas Transmission Gathering_Systems11-82`80 --- `813

AT8081 Reports are identical to AT7079 and have been combined with same. AT8283 Reports are similar to AT7079 but only the total fields are entered. The majority of the information in the earlier annual reports is not entered. TRANS - The database covers many of the same topics as the earlier databases but not in the same detail, and therefore does not easily combine with the earlier data- bases. In summary, there are three separate incident and three separate annual report databases. The forms used for all databases may be found in Appendix Bi of this report. 2.3 ACCURACYOFTHE DATABASE One of the issues with regard to the databases is the incompleteness of the records. Often, in an individual incident record, one or more fields may be left blank. This may surface from time to time as an anomaly in the analysis. As an example of this phenomenon, consider the corro- sion data for 1972. It was found that 93 incidents occurred that year where the cause as speci- fied in the incident report was cited as corrosion. It was also found that 42 incidents occurred in coated pipe and 51 in uncoated pipe, also totaling 93 incidents. For the same data it was found that 67 of those incidents were on pipe that was cathodically protected while 25 were on non protected pipe, for a total of 92 incidents. One incident is missing. This anomaly occurred be- cause the field in the database that carries the information as to whether the pipe is protected or not was blank. The field could be blank for one of two reasons: it was not entered on the written incident report filed by the operator or it was not entered into the database by the "keypunch" operator. This type of anomaly occurs frequently. Therefore, it is understood that all values in the docu- ment represent incident rate/i ,000 mi-yr for the data reported and present in the database. The missing data should not effect the accuracy or reliability of the analysis. A detailed analysis of the database may be found in Appendix Al. 4

2.4 NORMALIZING DATA IN THE DATABASEIn order to rank the various factors considered, it would be necessary to express the incidentrate for a particular factor in terms of incidents per 1,000 mile-year. If this were done, rankingwould be from the highest to the lowest incident rate.It was not possible to express incident rates for alIfactors considered in this "normalized" fash-ion because the data to do so were not available in the OPS or other databases. To illustratethis point on normalized data, consider the following example: Assume that one wishes to compute the normalized incident rates caused by corrosion for 1970 where the pipe is either coated or not coated. Assume that there are 91 inci- dents in gas pipelines that year where 44 of the pipe were coated and 47 were not coated. Based upon this raw count of incidents, one would assume that the rates for coated and uncoated pipe were essentially the same. Consider now that there were approximately 37,500 miles of uncoated pipe and 212,500 miles of coated pipe in the system for that year. The normalized incident rates may now be computed as: Rate for Coated Pipe: 44 incidents / 212,500 miles x 1,000 = 0.21 incidents/i ,000 mi-yr of coated pipe Rate for Uncoated Pipe: 47 incidents / 37,500 miles x 1,000 = 1.25 incidents/i ,000 mi-yr of uncoated pipe In normalized form, it is seen that the incident rate for uncoated pipe is approximately six times greater than for coated pipe.The type of information used to normalize the incident rates in the example above, e.g., miles ofcoated and uncoated pipe in the system, is not available for many of the factors that are impor-tant to incident rates and therefore considered in this study.Even if normalizing information were available, the analysis would still be more complex thanjust producing normalized rates. Consider again the example cited above: It is also known that there were 61 incidents in 1970 caused by corrosion where the pipe was cathodically protected and 30 incidents where the pipe was not protected. Also, there were approximately 212,800 miles of pipeline that were cathodically protected that year while there were 37,100 miles that were not protected in the total system. This produces normalized incident rates of: 0.29 incidents/i ,000 mi-yr of cathodically protected pipe 0.81 incidents/i ,000 mi-yr of non-cathodically protected pipe 5

Page 11: NOTICEThis document is disseminated under the ...pstrust.org/docs/usdot_doc1.pdf · Pipe wall thickness is a key factor in pipeline safety and reduced inci-dent rates.INCIDENT PRESSURE

It is recognized that cathodic protection and coating are not unrelated, and it would be moreaccurate to find the incident rate for coated, cathodically protected pipe, coated non-protected,uncoated protected and uncoated unprotected pipe. This type of information is not available formost of the factors considered.It is also understood that the rate for coated pipe where the wall thickness is 1/8" may be muchgreater than where the wall thickness is 1/4". The interplay of multiple factors is a complicationin the analysis. A far more sophisticated database would be required to allow for analysis andmodeling of the many factors that contribute to incident rates.Since the normalizing of the data was not always possible, the authors of this report use indirectand inferential approaches in the analysis. The ALTRN database, while older and having manyerrors was used extensively in this report because it contains much more information than thelater TLEAK database. Also, because the property damage threshold for reporting incidentswas an order of magnitude lower in ALTRN than in TLEAK, the number of incidents reportedwas also an order of magnitude larger. The larger database facilitated the analysis becausethere was always a significant number of records to examine containing any of the variablesconsidered.3.0 INCIDENT RATES BY YEAR AND CAUSE31 ORIGINAL OPS DATABASEThe incident records are maintained by the OPS in three separate databases. The first data-base, ALTRN, contains records from 1970 to 1982. An incident is defined for this set of recordsas an event where a person is injured, killed or $5,000 in property damage occurs. The seconddatabase, PIP, contains records for 1982-1 983, where an incident is defined in the same man-ner as the ALTRN database.The third database, TLEAK, contains records from 1984 to the present. The property damagecriteria for an incident in this database changes from $5,000 to $50,000 in 1984. The basic in-formation contained in the incident record is also greatly reduced from the two earlier data-bases. Blank copies of the incident report forms are contained in Appendix Bi. One may ob-serve that the later report contains a much smaller amount of data.The cause of the incident is specified in the incident report. The operator has the following fourchoices for describing the cause of the incident: 1. Corrosion 2. Damage by outside forces 6

3. Construction defect or material failure 4. OtherThe number of incidents reported for the period of record, by cause, may be found in the follow-ing table where 1984 contains records from the PIP and TLEAK databases combined: INCIDENTS BY YEAR AND CAUSE - ORIGINAL OPS DATABASEA-CorrosionYR A B C Dii~8291318128715214881439989243399016331915911530292931012233341532B-Outside Force C-Construction-Material Defects D-OtherThe data shown above is plotted in two formats for ease of review.

The trend in number of reportable incidents dropped during the period from 1970 to 1983. Thepercentage of corrosion incidents increased slightly over the entire record from 1970 to 1993.The percentage of incidents caused by construction defects or material failure decreased sig-nificantly over the period of record while the number of incidents reported as "other" cause in-creased greatly. The greater part of the increase in the "other" category took place after 1984when the reporting criteria changed.RECOMMENDATION: The number of categories used to identify the cause of the inci- dent should be increased to generate more useful responses by the operators and reduce the number of incidentsclassified as "other".In ranking the four causes used on the incident report form, the average percent occurrence ofthe causes for the years of record produces the results in the following table. The percent ofoccurrence is used instead of the total count because of the data break in 1984.

tively. This reflects a certain consistency in the outside force and corrosion causes with signifi-cant variation over the period of record occurring in the two remaining causes.CONCLUSION: The primary cause of incidents as reported from 1970 to 1993 is outside force. This is followed by construction defect-material failure. In the most recent years of reporting the "other" category is the second largest category and almost as large as damage by outside force.3.2 DATA NORMALIZED TO MINIMUM $50,000 PROPERTY DAMAGE IN 1984The property damage requirement for reporting an incident was changed in 1984 from $5,000prior to 1984 to $50,000 from 1984 to the present. To compare the complete database in amore consistent way, the data has been adjusted such that reportable incidents are restricted toa smaller set such that the minimum property damage for reportability is adjusted each year bythe change in the Consumer Price Index CPI based on $50,000 damage in 1984. Therefore,reportable incidents always have a property damage threshold of the same "real" value ofmoney for the entire period of record. Incidents that result in injuries that require hospitalizationor result in death make an incident reportable independent of the resulting property damage.The CPI changes were taken from the Statistical Abstract of the United States for 1994.

The difference between the original data and the normalized data is that the original data ap-pear to show a decline in the number of incidents between 1970 and 1984 and a somewhatuniform rate after 1984, while the normalized data are more random but show an increase overthe period of record.4.0 INCIDENT RATES - CORROSIONThe incidents where corrosion was listed as the cause in the ALTRN, PIP and TLEAK incidentdatabases were summarized for each year of record. These sums were then divided by themiles of pipe in the total system for each year, respectively, as given in the AT7079, AT8081,AT8283 and the TRANS annual reports. The results were then multiplied by 1,000 to normalizethe data as incidents per 1,000 mile years. CORROSION INCIDENTS /1,000 MI-YR f INCIDENTYEAR J.

4.1 CORROSION INCIDENT RATES FOR PIPE THAT IS NOT PROTECTED CATHODICALLYThe incident rate may similarly be calculated for corrosion incidents where the pipe is coated ornot coated and cathodically protected or not protected.The value for "not protected miles" in the table that follows is obtained by subtracting the "totalprotected miles" in the system from the "total miles in the system".It is clear from both the chart and the table from which it came that cathodic protection is veryimportant in reducing the incident rates. The average incideot rate for the period of record is0.17 and 0.40 incidents/i ,000 mi-yr respectively for protected and not protected pipe. This is aratio of approximately 1:3. This ratio is even greater in the more recent years for which data isavailable.

5.0 INCIDENTS BY CAUSE AND COVER DEPTH5.1 ALTRN DATABASE 1970-1 981USDOT pipeline safety regulations, 49CFR 192.327, require a minimum cover of pipe of atleast thirty inches at the time of construction with certain exceptions as cited therein. An ex-amination of the records in the ALTRN Database 1970-1981 shows a significant number ofincidents where the depth of cover was less than twenty-four inches. These records are sum-marized in the following table on cause vs. depth of cover giving both the count and cumulativepercentage of incidents. The table is also presented graphically as count of incidents in eachcategory and as a percent of incidents by cause. CovER DEPTH VS.

The three databases combined rep-resent 6133 incidents as compared to 4984 incidents in ALTRN where the depth of cover isknown and included in the table above.The majority of the incidents where the depth of cover is twenty-four inches or less are causedby outside force. Data are not available to indicate the total miles of transmission pipelines atvarious depths of cover. The large number of incidents with shallow depth of cover show thevulnerability to third party damage of those pipelines. 19

In reviewing the chart above, it is seen that the preponderance of the incidents for corrosion,construction defect-material failure and "other" cause lie between twenty-four and forty-eightinches of depth. This is a reasonably expected result. The preponderance of incidents for out-side force incidents, however, is between zero and forty-two inches in depth.Since three of the incidents follow patterns that would be expected, and only outside force isdifferent, one may reasonably conclude that: * The miles of pipe in the system at depths below twenty-four inches is small or the dis- tribution of incidents with depth would be the same for all four causes. * Shallow depth of cover is a critical factor in outside force incidents. * It is very important that the incident form be modified to include data on depth of cover to determine if it is still a critical factor in outside force incidents.I-z00I-zw0Cz INCIDENTS - CAUSE vs. COVER DEPTH -ALTRN DATABASE140012001000800600400200 0o O1HERo CON-MAT DB~T* OUTSIDE FORCEo CORROSIONC b ~ca ~ ~7 ~7 ~ ~ ~ ~- o A ` C'.J C' C' A A A A A RANGEof D~THof COVB~ b b It CD 0-~ -. -.

INCIDENTS - CAUSE vs. COVERDEPTH in % - ALTRN DATABASE 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% The decrease, on a percentage basis, of the incidents caused by outside damage as the depth of cover increases shows that cover is an important protection against damage by outside force. Of the incidents reported with depth of cover information available and outside force as the cause, 826 of the total of 1872 incidents occurred when the depth of cover is twenty-four inches or less. This means that forty-four percent of the outside force incidents which occur do so with a shallow depth of cover. One might reasonably conjecture that the percent of the total miles of pipeline in the country where the depth of cover is twenty-four inches or less is a much smaller number than the forty- four percent of incidents cited above. This idea may be supported by reviewing the cumulative percent of total incidents for each cause where the depth of cover is twenty-four inches or less. The three alternate causes have 12, 6 and 14 % of their total incidents as compared to 44% for outside force where the depth of cover is twenty-four inches or less. At the thirty-six inch depth, outside force incidents are at a cumulative level of 76% as compared to the three other causes which are approximately 52+%. Clearly, lack of adequate depth of cover plays a strong role in the occurrence of outside force incidents. CONCLUSION: Inadequate depth of cover is a primary cause of outsidle force accidents. 52 DISTRIBUTION OF INCIDENTS BY CAUSE vs. DEPTH OF COVER It is of interest to compare the distribution of incidents among the four causes as a function of the depth of cover of the pipeline.

CONCLUSION: Inadequate depth of cover is a primary cause of outside force accidents. Since outside force damage is the dominant cause of incidents, depth of cover is a primary factor in incident rates.5.3 YEAR OF INSTALLATION OF THE PIPELINE AS RELATEDTO DEPTH OF COVERConsider the average year of installation of the pipelines associated with various depths ofcover for the incidents in the ALTRN database. This data is found in the table that follows:The average year of installation has ranges for different depths of cover and cause as follows:CORROSION Varies between 1939 to 1947 except when cover is less than 6".CON-MAT DEFECT Varies between 1943 to 1955 except when cover is less than 6".OUTSIDE FORCE Varies between 1938 to 1941 when depth of cover is less than 24".

The earlier, average year of installation reflects thatmost of the pipe involved in the incidents was installed prior to the implementation of RSPAregulations. 23

CONCLUSION: Depth of cover is an important factor in causing incidents due to third party damage. Operators should be alert to risk by outside force for older pipelines installed at depths that would not satisfy current codes.RECOMMENDATION:The current incident report form should be modified to include depth of cover information.6.0 INCIDENTS AS RELATED TO LAND USE6.1 ALTRN DATABASE6.1.1 LAND USE AT THE TIME OF INSTALLATION OF THE PIPELINEIn the ALTRN database, the environmental description predominant type of land use at the in-cident site is given at the time of installation of the pipeline as well as at the time of the inci-dent. The choices available for land use description in the ALTRN incident form are: 1. Commercial 2. Industrial 3. Residential 4. Rural 5. Undeveloped 6. Unknown 7. OtherThere were 189 incidents reported in the ALTRN database where the "other" category was indi-cated for the land use near the pipeline at the time of installation. The following table shows thedescriptions provided along with the "other" entry, the number of entries for that category andthe corrected category, as interpreted by NJIT as based on the description. The descriptionshown in the table is the description as shown in the database sometimes truncated.A new category, offshore, was added as category 8. 24

6.1.2 LAND USE AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENTThe land use of the area surrounding the pipeline at the time of the incident when compared tothe area at the time of installation of the pipeline is also of interest. A similar change was madein the "other" field of the land use category at the time of the incident as above. Category 7,"other", and category 8, offshore, were added and category 6 was changed to "unknown" forconsistency with categories used for the pipe at the time of installationOnly a fraction of the records had non-null values for the category of area at the time of the in-cident. Therefore, the table that follows carries only a small number of records as compared tothe table above.It is unusual that an operator would know the land use at the time of installation of the pipelineand not know the land use at the time of the incident when the form was filed. Clearly, there isan error in the database that requires investigation.RECOMMENDATION: The original written forms as submitted by the operators should be investigated to ensure that if the data was entered on the form it was also entered in the database.

A similar change was made in the "other" field of theland use category at the time of the incident, as above. Category G, "other", and category H,offshore, were added and category F was changed to unknown. Since fewer records have theland use at the time of the incident, the following table has fewer entries than the previous table.CHANGE IN LAND USE BETWEEN THE TIME OF INSTALLATION AND THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT COMMERCIAL [INDUSTRIAL I RESIDENTIAL RURAL UNDEVELOPEDCOMMERCIAL50000INDUSTRIAL0600 - 0RESIDENTIAL00110 - 0RURAL4610405 - 1UNDEVELOPED23416 - 82As would be expected, the commercial, industrial and residential areas at the time of installationof the pipeline did not change the character of its land use at the time of the incident.

The total numberof incidents in the group under study is limited; however, there is a clear trend that outside forcebecomes the dominant cause of incidents.29

This conclusion is reinforced by the fact that there is a greater probability that an operator willknow the land use at the time of the incident when the incident report is being written than atthe time of installation which could be decades earlier. The data present in the database areopposite to this obvious conclusion.Combining the ALTRN and PIP databases, the number of incidents by type of land use at thetime of the incident may be obtained for the period 1970-1983.6.2.3 INCIDENTS VS.

LAND USE vs CAUSE % 1970-1 983 cauartal.xlsIn viewing the graph above, one may draw the following conclusions on the distribution of inci-dents by cause vs. land use on a percent basis: 1. The intensity of development decreases from left to right on the graph, in general. 2. Corrosion, as a cause increases slightly with development. 3. Outside force decreases as intensity of development intensity decreases. 4. Construction and material defect increase as a cause as development intensity de- creasesCONCLUSION: When the land use near a pipeline is more intense the dominant source of incidents is third party damage. This leads to the conclusion that when development encroaches on a pipeline, the system becomes more vulnerable to third party damage.63 TLEAK DATABASE 1984-19936.3.1 INCIDENTS VS.

The largest number of incidents occurred in Class I areas. This probably relatesto the fact that most of the pipeline mileage in the system is Class I. This assumption cannotbe verified since such data are not available on a system wide basis.This distribution is also related to the fact that the allowable operating stress for a transmissionpipeline decreases with increasing class value. The lower the operating pressure, the smallerthe likelihood of an incident occurring from material defect.The higher number of incidents in Class 3 locations than Class 2 locations may be caused by agreater number of miles of pipe in Class 3 than Class 2. This speculation should be verified bydetermining the number of miles of pipe in the country by class location. If the information isnot available, it should be obtained by OPS.6.3.2 PRoPERTY DAMAGE VS. CLAss LOCATIONThe average property damage vs. class location may also be generated from the TLEAK data-base.

As with the ALTRN database, the more rural area has the larger average property damage.The reduced operating stress at higher class location values has reduced the number of inci-dents and the resulting damage that results. Property damage is expected to be a function ofthe operating pressure as well as other factors. Gas flow rates will be greater at higher pres-sures and thereby the resulting material loss would be greater. A resulting fire or explosionwould impact a greater area at higher pressures.6.3.3 PROPERTY DAMAGE VS. LAND USE AT TIME OF INSTALLATION OF THE PIPELINE 1970-1981The average property damage sustained in reported incidents for a given land use was ex-tracted from the ALTRN database - 1970 to 1981. This data is summarized in the table belowwhere all records processed had non zero values for property damage. Three sets of averageswere calculated. The first set included all records with non-zero property damage. The secondset excluded the 1% of the records with the highest property damage since these few recordswould greatly skew the averages. The third set excluded the top 2% to see the sensitivity of theresults to the smaller groups. AVERAGE PRoPERTY DAMAGES VS.

The smallest average damages occurred in the developed areas at the time of instal- lation commercial, industrial and residential. 2. The highest damages occurred where the land was originally undeveloped or un- known. 3. The average property damage is much less than its standard deviation. 4. Finally, in those areas where the original land use was not known, the average dam- * age is double the average undeveloped damages, the next largest value. 34

Since the data may be skewed by the small number of very large events, the average propertydamage will be recomputed by subtracting the one and two percent of the data with the largestdamage values. Studying these records, the following observations may be made: 1. None of the top two percent of the incidents occurs in commercial areas. 2. Few of the top two percent of the incidents occur in industrial areas. 3. Rural, residential and unknown areas have their averages reduced to between 1/3 and 1/4 of their original value indicating that, in damages, the top 2%of the incidents occur for these categories.The surprising results on property damage vs. land use suggest that it would be of interest tocompare the damages to the land use at the time of the incident for the top 2%, approximately,or those with damages equal to or greater than $100,000.

Of the 102 records, only one occurred in a commercial or residential area and that had the smallest average damages at $125,000. This suggests that the system is working because the major accidents are occurring within low population areas. 2. The highest damages occurred in rural areas. It suggests that this may be an area where the largest pipe with the largest pressures and flows occur since there is not significant population present.The two next highest values occur in rural and undeveloped areas where the land use was notrecorded at the time of the incident. These may reflect encroachment on the pipeline afterconstruction or the same reason as 2, above. The original reports, if they still exist, could beused to verify the hypothesis. 35

These data are summarized from the ALTRN and PIP databases. The type of pipe manufac-ture included: * Seamless * Electric-resistance welded * Submerged-arc welded * Butt welded * Furnace-lap welded.The total number of incidents by year of incident and type of manufacture are given in the pre-ceding table. All incidents are caused by "material defect".The data are presented graphically and may be found on the following page.The graphical presentation of incidents by year of installation shows spikes of incidents for pipeinstalled during the periods: * 1929 to 1931 Furnace-lap, electric-resistance & butt welded pipe * 1943 Electric-resistance welded pipe * 1949 to 1952 Electric-resistance & submerged-arc welded pipe * 1953 to 1963 Electric-resistance welded pipe * 1970 to 1974 Electric resistance welded pipeInformation is not available to the authors on the miles of pipe installed each year or theirmethod of manufacture. From the data in the `70-79 Annual Reports, one may observe thatthe `50's had slightly smaller number of miles of pipe installed than the `60's, while there was amarkedly larger number of incidents due to construction or material defect for electric-resistance and submerged-arc welded pipe. 37

Insights may be gained by comparing the spikes in the chart by the of installation vs. the type ofmanufacture with the percent distribution of incidents by cause vs. year of installation. Combin-ing data from ALTRN and PIP, the following table and chart may be generated for recordswhere the incident was on the body of the pipe.

The number of incidents in this table may not match up, by year, with the data in the precedingtable by type of steel manufacture. This occurs sometimes because one of the fields beingchecked in the database inquiry may by its value or absence remove that record from consid-eration. The slight variation caused in the tables is not large and does not effect the analysis.The data spikes observed in the chart, "Material Failure Incidents Per Year of Pipe Installationvs. Type of Manufacture" may now be compared to the percent of material failure incidents forthe years of interest. The average percent material failure rate for the table above is computedas: 21.96%Spikes in the incident count by manufacture are observed in the chart, "Steel Pipe - Year In-stalled vs. Manufacture" for certain years. These spikes and the percent of incidents caused byconstruction-material defect are shown in the table that follows. The average percent failuresby construction-material defects for the period of record is thirty-three percent. The deviationfrom the average +/-% is also shown. YEARS WITH SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF MATERIAL FAILURESERW - Electric ResistanceBUT - Butt WeldARC - Submerged-Arc WeldLAP - Furnace Lap WeldWhere there is a spike in electric resistance welded pipe incidents, the percent of material de-fects is above average, sometimes quite significantly. This trend indicates that the spikes werenot caused by having large miles of pipe installed for the years involved because if it were onlylarge miles of pipe, one would not expect the distribution by cause to likewise change.YEARERWARCBUTLAP% MAT=/-% avg194386001566441952621103401819506058242482619495819014321195143942055331958361401381619563340238161947312032971973281504826195326821331119722470432119742391442219572310102861971182105331193110211712-10192972112122019300134318-440

The table has been sorted by number of spikes in electric resistance welds and divided intothree groups. The first two groups show a trend of decreasing percent of material defects asincident cause as the number of electric resistance welds decreased. The first two groupsshow those trends somewhat independently.The pipe installed in the seventies appear to be more sensitive to electric resistance pipe con-sidering the higher above average percents recorded and the shorter time in the ground ofthose pipe. The incidents under review occurred in the period from 1970 to 1983.The third group in the table contains one record with a spike in furnace lap welded pipe. Thepercent of cause for material defect decreased slightly from the average for this case indicatingthat this type of weld does not have a major effect on this type of incident. The three records inthis group have the smallest number of electric-resistance weld incidents and are at average orslightly below average in the percent of total incidents by cause.The submerged arc welded pipe appears to have a lesser effect on the shift in cause to materialdefect. In the first group, there are two years 1950 & 1951 where the submerged arc weldedpipe has major spikes which produced a small additional shift in cause.The question of the spikes in the chart being caused by a large number of miles of pipe beinginstalled in those years may be examined by reviewing the data on the miles of pipe in the sys-tem by decade. This data was summarized for the annual reports from that period. The annualreports are maintained in the databases, AT7079 and AT8081. The total miles of pipe by dec-ade are summarized below. The average length of pipe is averaged over the period of recordin the database, 1970-1981.

Even if all of the pipe installed in that decadewas built in only those three years, there is not enough miles of pipe installed in that decade toaccount for the data spikes. A similar analysis could be made for the data in the `70's wherethere were spikes in four of the years of the decade. 41

The information above may be summarized by decade to coincide with the miles of pipe in thetotal system which is known by year of installation in ten year periods. This information is foundin the annual reports from 1970 to 1983.

The incidents occurred during the period from 1970 to 1983 and were caused by material fail-ure. One may then compute the incidents per 1,000 mi year by taking the incidents per decadeof installation, divide same by the average miles of pipe in service for that decade, multiply theresult by 1,000 and divide the result by 10 to move the results from decade to year.

2. The highest material defect incident rate was in electric-resistance welded pipe in- stalled in the 1940's. 3. Furnace-lap welded pipe was the dominant pipe subject to material defect incidents prior to the 1940's. 4. The pipe installed in the 1960's shows a low material defect incident rate while that installed in the 1970's shows a very high material defect incident rate. When one considers that the data were taken during the seventies and very little pipe installed in the seventies was in the ground, on average, to be subject to incidents, the material defect incidents were very high.CONCLUSION: Although complete normalization of the data is not possible at this time, it is clear that the electric resistance welded pipe has a high rate of ma- terial failures especially those installed in the 1940's and the 1970's. Similarly, the incident rate in the `60's was very low.7.1 PIPE MANUFACTURER vs. TYPE OF MATERIAL FAILUREA study of the ALTRN database may be utilized to determine any relationships that might existbetween the manufacturer and the type of material failures that occur on their pipe. The resultsof this analysis may be found in the table on the following page.It is seen that 53% of the material failure incidents occurred in electric resistance welded pipeand slightly more than 21% in submerged arc welded pipe. While most of the manufacturerslisted have very few incidents, several probably the larger manufacturers show distinct pat-terns as to the type of material failure. It is difficult to draw conclusions since the miles of pipein the system by manufacturer and type of. manufacture are not known and hence the data can-not be normalized.

It is not possible to normalize the data because the informationneeded to do so is not available. It is not known if other manufacturers produced electric resis-tance weld pipe during those~periods or how many miles of pipe were placed by the manufac-turer.One may safety conclude, however, that an operator with pipe installed for the years above andmanufactured by the companies cited above for electric resistance weld pipe should realize thatthose pipe are at special risk for manufacture defect failure.8.0 INCIDENTS vs. YEARS OF OPERATIONThe ALTRN, PIP and TLEAK databases have been analyzed to determine if the number andtypes of incidents are related to the years of operation of the pipeline. The chart below showsthe number of incidents that have occurred for various years of pipe operation. This is obtainedby subtracting the year of installation from the year of the incident for all incident records andgrouping same. This chart includes all causes of incidents.ALL INCIDENTS vs YEARS OF PIPELINE OPERATION age agecaua.xlsz0C.I-.z0C.z0 20 40 60 80 100YEARS OF OPERATION.cou~j12046

At the year of installation, 0 years of operation, there are more than 300 incidents. This reflectsincidents associated with the installation and potential construction defects. There is a discon-tinuity at 20 and 40 years. This corresponds to the incidents that show as spikes in the early`30's and `50's in the chart of incidents by year of installation since the majority of incidentswere from the years 1970 to 1981.Otherwise, the incident rate by pipe age is in a range for the first 10 years of operation. Therate then increases for the next 15 to 20 years, stays in a band for the next twenty years, andthen declines steadily to a very low rate reflecting in part the decrease in operational pipe atmore than 50 years of age.The same analysis was then made by incident cause. The four charts that follow reflect the re-lationship by age of pipe and the incident rate by cause of incident.As the pipe ages, the number of corrosion incidents increases almost linearly for approximately25 years where it remains in a band for the next 25 years. After 60 years of operation, thenumber of incidents is small reflecting the small number of pipelines in operation at that age.-__*-__ #~ I`.~___-_-___-__ I,~ * o6*.* ~*.*** *.*. *b.. .*,* **. ~.a.

Although there is a scattering of the data, there is a clear pattern of approximately 30 to 60 inci-dents per year for the first fifty years of operation. This then decreases markedly as the num-ber of miles of pipe of that age becomes very small.*.."~~*sss~In the first year of operation there is a large number of incidents reflecting initial problems inconstruction failure. Subsequently, the rate increases slowly with age for about 30 years.There are spikes of incidents at 20 and 40 years as previously discussed. Otherwise, the rateis steady for approximately 15 years where it decreases slightly and again holds steady for anadditional 15 years. It then decreases reflecting the small mileage of pipeline over 50 years ofoperational age.70OUTSIDE FORCE INCIDENTS vs YEARS OF PIPELINE OPERATION age agecaua.xls 60z~ 500 40 200 20 40 60 80couNrYEARS OF OPE~ATION100 120 CONSTRUCTION-MATERIAL DEFECTS INCIDENTS vs YEARS OF PIPELINE OPERATION age agecaua.xls 300I _____ ____ ____-z 250 200~ 150 couin~~ 100U~ 50 0 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 YEARS OF OPR~ATION48

The other category reflects a band width approximately 10 units wide for the first 50 years ofoperation where it then drops off to a small number reflecting the small mileage of pipe at thatage.9.0 RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN AGE, CORROSION AND INCIDENT RATESThe relationship between incidents, cause and age can now be reported by individual cause.This may be found in the following plot. It is also useful to plot the data by a five year movingaverage to smooth out the annual discontinuities. The moving average plot follows the plot bycause.It is seen that virtually all four causes have their incident rates begin to decline after approxi-mately forty-five years. It appears that the miles of pipeline in the system by age declines atabout that point. This is seen in both charts but more clearly in the five year moving averagewhich smoothes out the random annual peaks.Further, within the annual variations, corrosion, outside force and other incidents are reasona-bly uniform lie within a band width over the first forty-five years with the exception that corro-sion incidents increase slowly over the first fifteen years from an initial low value.OTHER INCIDENTS vs YEARS OF PIPELINE OPERATION age agecaua.xlsI-z0C.,I-zUi0C.z3025201510 50~cou~r~0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90YEARS OF OPERATION49

It is of interest to see if the relationship of corrosion with age would vary with the thickness ofpipeline. Two charts follow. The first shows the incident count with age for three ranges ofthickness. The second is the five year average of the data which is used to smooth out the dis-continuities and more clearly indicate the trends.The charts are reasonably clear: * If the pipe wall thickness is greater than 3/8 inch, there will be few corrosion failures. * For the first twenty-three years, only corrosion incidents occur primarily in thin wall pipe less than 1/4 inch. * After twenty five years, corrosion incidents are not as sensitive to thickness below 3/8 inch. * There are only five years in the period of record where there are corrosion incidents for pipe with a wall thickness greater than 3/8 inch. This is a random event and not a function of age. * For pipe with wall thickness between 1/4 inch and 3/8 inch, there are intermittent low level of incidents beginning at eight years and continuing to twenty eight years. The incident rate for these pipe then increases significantly for the next twenty-five years where the incident rates drop off due to what is assumed to be low pipe mileage at that age. * For pipe with wall thickness less than 1/4 inch, the incidents initiate at an earlier point in time 5 years and the rate grows for the next few years where it remains in a band for the next forty-five years. * The five year trend shows that the thinner pipe has incidents at an earlier age and grows more rapidly till a somewhat steady rate is achieved. 16 14 12C. 10z ~ ~icLrt ____________ CORROSION INCIDENTS vs AGE AND PIP EWALL THICKNESS in~ ~J~H 411 ~ lu AGE yrsL~L~~i~<=.25 ~>.25-<=.375 ~>.37552

CONCLUSION: Pipe wall thickness is of key importance with regard to corrosion mci- dents. Thinner pipe is far more vulnerable. Pipe with wall thickness greater than 3/8 inch does not appear to be very susceptible to corrosion failures.10.0 PIPE DIAMETER AND WALL THICKNESS vs. INCIDENT RATES10.1 ALTRN DATABASE 1970-1982he following table shows the number of incidents reported for each year in the database.

The number of incidents then remains in a range be-tween four and five hundred per year for the next seven years.The data in the table is, likewise, presented graphically below.~±HiiL HFor eight of the first nine years, the diameter field is known for only 1/3 of the records and thethickness is virtually never recorded. From 1979 - 1982 the diameter and thickness field is pre-sent for almost all records. This suggests that the data may not have been entered into thedatabase but may well have been present on the incident forms. It is unlikely that an operatorfilling out an incident report will not know the diameter or the thickness in certain years only.RECOMMENDATION: The original incident data forms as submitted by the operators should be reviewed and the databases corrected accordingly.INCIDENTS PER YEAR WHERE DIAMETER AND THICKNESS ARE KNOWN yralta.xls 700,... 600z 500 400 300a 200 100 0~0 TOTAL INCIDB'JTSUDIAM KNOWN0 ThICKNESS KNOWN0 DLAM,THK KNOWN1970 1972 1974 1976 1978 1980 1982YEAR54

10.1.1 INCIDENT RATE VS. PIPE THICKNESS AND PIPE DIAMETERA study of the ALTRN database with regard to incident rates for various pipe wall thicknessesproduces the results shown in the plot that follows. Although the incident reports do not appearto have been completely entered into the database, insights into the cause of incidents may beobtained. NUMBER OF INCIDENTS VS.

On a percentage basis, the thinner the pipe wall, the higher the percent of inci-dents caused by outside force. The annual reports filed by the operators do not include mile-age as a function of wall thickness, therefore, it is not possible to normalize the data to deter-mine if the predominant installed pipe follows the pattern of incidents vs. wall thickness.An examination of the API Specifications for Line Pipe can give some insights into typical wallthickness for various diameter pipe. An analysis of this data may be found in the following ta-ble.INCIDENT RATE vs PIPE WALL THICKNESS thka.xls ALTRN DATABASE600500400~CORROSION* OUTSIDE FORCED CON-MAT DEFECT[~rHERClI-.zw~ 300z~ 200z 100 `01<1/8 1/8-<1/4 1/4-<3183/8-<1/2 112-<518" 518-<3/4WALL THCKNESS>=:3/4'55

It is seen that the smallest standard wall thickness is greater than 1/8". As the pipe diameterincreases, the standard extra strong wall thickness likewise increases until it reaches a stan-dard thickness above a 12" size. It should be noted that the number of available wall thick-nesses for each diameter pipe is approximately seventeen. As the pipe get larger, the numberof wall thicknesses greater than "standard" likewise increases. The extra strong pipe is 1/2" forthe pipe above 8 5/8" diameter.

The thicker the wall of the pipe, the smaller thelikelihood of the occurrence of an incident.10.1.2 PIPE DIAMETER VS. INCIDENT RATEAn alternative approach to the same conclusion comes from viewing the relationship betweenpipe diameter and incident rate. This relationship is shown in the chart below taken from thedata in the ALTRN database. The majority of the incidents have occurred for pipe of 8" diame-ter or less. The smaller the diameter, the smaller the wall thickness, in general. 56

. ....~..... . . e. .CONCLUSION:2528 incidents occur in 85,252 miles of pipe where the "standard" wallthickness is between 0.133" and 0.322". This compares to 1178 inci-dents occurring in 182,273 miles of pipe where the "standard" wallthickness is 0.375" for more than 90% on the line. The incident rate forthe smaller diameter and therefore smaller thickness pipe is 4.6 timesgreater than the larger diameter thicker walled pipe.Pipe wall thickness is a key factor in pipeline safety.10.2 TLEAK DATABASE 1984-1 993A study of the TLEAK database with regard to incident rates for various pipe wall thicknessesproduces the resUlts shown in the plot that follows.

Discounting the other category in the analysis, one may generate the following table comparingthe total incidents due to corrosion and construction-material defects to those caused by out-side force: INCIDENT COUNT FOR WALL THICKNESS VS.

Thisis due to the fact that the smaller diameter pipe involved in incidents usually produce less prop-erty damage than the large diameter pipe. Due to the change in property damage thresholdbetween ALTRN and TLEAK the smaller diameter pipe involved in incidents show up primarilyin the ALTRN database.

creases slightly. ALTRN and PIP oscillate for the last three ranges while TLEAK decreasesslightly.ALTRN and PIP operate on the same definition for an incident whereas TLEAK requires a ten-fold increase in property damage for a leak or failure to qualify for an incident report. This ex-plains the difference in the general distribution pattern between TLEAK and the other two data-bases. AVERAGE INCIDENT OPERATING PRESSURE PSI VS.

If the pipe is struck by an object that is sufficient to damage the wall, the internal pres-sure is secondary to the failure that occurs.If a pipe fails due to corrosion, the second lowest cause discounting "other" as cause, corro-sion, will reduce the wall thickness of the pipe. If the internal pressure is closer to the MAOP, asmall loss of material will be sufficient to fail the pipe. If the pressure is slightly lower, furthercorrosion will cause failure.The construction or material defect incident cause has the highest average pressure. This isreasonable since the pipe defect should be small to have passed the original inspection beforeinstallation. The pipe would then be operating closer to the MAOP or a higher pressure for fail-ure to occur.It is difficult to analyze the "other" category because the cause is really unknown and very var-ied and so not easily analyzed.A similar analysis was made for this data where the operating pressure exceeded 90% ofMAOP.

The conclusions reached above for all incidents vs. average operating pressures are also truein the above table where the operating pressure is greater than 90% of MAOP except evenmore so. When a transmission pipeline is operating near the MAOP, it is more vulnerable tocorrosion and material defect.The distribution of incidents, by cause, is also of interest when the operating pressure is at vari-ous percentages of MAOP. The data examined is limited to incidents where the incident pres-sure and MAOP are known.

This is expected because there is a smallernumber of incidents at increasing pressure. To evaluate the implications of the distribution, thepercent, by cause, will be evaluated for each incident pressure as a percent of MAOP.

As the incident pressure in- creases as a percent of MAOP, material defect increases as the percent cause to a point where it reaches 82% at incident pressure equal to MAOP.As was true in the ALTRN database, the percent of outside force decreases with increasedpressure measured as percentage of MAOP and corrosion increases for the TLEAK database. 62

INTRODUCTION TO APPENDIX A Separate reports have been produced for the natural gas and hazardous liquids pipeline databases. This was done because the databases are very different and the information in the reports is most easily understood when viewing them independently. Appendix A contains an analysis of the RSPA-OPS databases, inclu~Iing the following details and information: 1. Describe in detail the contents of the databases received from RSPA. 2. Describe in detail the process used in analyzing the pipeline failure data. 3. Present and describe the results from the data analysis, including conclusions made based on data analysis. 4. Describe the precise areas where errors in the data were found and recommend where revisions should be made in the database to correct the errors. 5. Describe the specific areas where normalizing data is lacking to draw statistically significant inferences for RSPA to use in program development in such areas as risk assessment and risk management, and recommend methods for obtaining such data, including recommendations for revising the reporting forms to provide normalizing data. 6. Present conclusions and recommendations based on data analysis conducted under this contract and from conducting the above listed tasks. As described above, six separate sub-components are dealt with in the analysis of the databases. The second and third sub-components are treated in the main body of the report. The other sub-components are treated in the appendices as follows:SUB-COMPONENT REPORT CONTAINING SUB-COMPONENTSUB-COMPONENT 1APPENDIx A-iDETAILED CONTENTS OF THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASESUB-COMPONENT 4APPENDIX A-2ERRORS IN THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DAT.~BAsESUB-COMPONENT 5APPENDIX A-3NORMALIZING DATA IN THE NATURAL GAS PIF'ELINE DATABASESUB-COMPONENT 6APPENDIX A-3NORMALIZING DATA IN THE NATURAL GAS PIF'ELINE DATABASE

APPENDIX Al DETAILED CONTENTS OF THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE INTRODUCTION As described in the main body of this report, there are two separate database areas maintained by RSPA-OPS, incidents and annual reports. The incident database contains the records of all transmission pipeline incidents as filed by pipeline operators. The annual reports database contains the annual reports as filed each year by the various pipeline operators. The annual reports contain descriptions of individual operators' systems. The information maintained in the database is described in the annual report forms as found in Appendix B. The information is primarily miles of pipe in the operators system for various diameters and other parameters. The variety of the data for the variables in this database is not of particular interest and will not be shown in detail in this Appendix. The types of answers provided by operators is of interest in understanding the incident database as well as its weak areas and shortcomings. For this reason all of the responses given by the operators for all of the variables involved are provided in the following pages. The following information will be provided for each data variable in the incident databases: * Variable name shown in bold type * Description of the variable * Number of occurrences of the variable in the database * The possible values for this variable along with the number of occurrences or each value found and its number of occurrences count ANALYSIS OF THE INCIDENT DATABASES There are three separate databases that comprise the incident database for RSPA/OPS.

APPENDIX A-2ERRORS IN THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINEDATABASEINTRODUCTIONThe purpose of this Appendix is to describe the precise areas where errors in the databasewere found and recommend where revisions should be made in the database to correct theerrors.This report addresses the errors found in the database for gas transmission pipelines. Therewere many types of errors found in the database. These include: 1. Changes in the information that was maintained in the database several times over the period of record. 2. Data that was reported by the operators but not entered into the database by RSPA'OPS personnel. 3. Duplicate records that became part of the database because duplicate reports were filed or data processing resulted in the duplicate records in the database. 4. Different values being used to represent the same information for a particular field in the database. 5. "Real" fields being entered into an incorrect position in the data field resulting in an incorrect value in the database. 6. Typographic errors in entering the data into the database. 7. Incorrect documentation of the database.At the initial development of the contract, it was not anticipated that there were extensive errorsin the database. For that reason, the project team did not develop a comprehensive approachto analyze the database for errors. The process for finding and eliminating errors came aboutinformally. As errors were found during the study of the database, it was analyzed,documented and then corrected in the NJIT database as best as could be done. There still maybe extensive errors in the database that were not found by the investigators during the studybecause the objective of the study was not to find errors but to perform an analysis.A detailed study should be performed to correct the database. This should include a detailedreview of as much of the original hard copy reports used to construct the database.CHANGES IN THE INFORMATION MAINTAINED IN THEDATABASE OVER THE PERIOD OF RECORDThe database was initiated in 1970 and consists of two separate components. The firstcomponent is the compilation of incident reports filed by operators whenever an incident asdefined by OPS takes place. The second component, also filed by the operators, is an annualreport that summarizes the system for the past year. Each of these components has changedERRORS IN THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE PAGE A2-1

APPENDIX A-2DATA REPORTED BY THE OPERATORS - NOT ENTEREDINTO THE DATABASE BY RSPAIOPSALTRN DATABASE 1970-1982It is of interest to view the number of incidents reported in the ALTRN database and thecompleteness of the database. The following table shows the number of incidents reported byyear. It also shows the number of incidents where the diameter of the pipe was present in thedatabase as well as the number of incidents where the thickness of pipe was given and whereboth the diameter and thickness were present in the database. NUMBER OF INCIDENTS WITH DATA REPORTEDYEARTOTALDIAMETER KNOWNWALL THICKNESS KNOWNDIAMETER & THICKNESS KNOWN7059820011716582052272619220227367627522745862082275498189007640520831317749044942142178474231383879452389361361803613343073078141237935335382477418397397TOTAL6706370519171917It is seen that the number of incidents reported varies approximately between six and sevenhundred per year from 1970 to 1974. The number of incidents then remains in a rangebetween four and five hundred per year for the next seven years.For eight of the first nine years, the diameter field is known for only 1/3 of the records and thepipe wall thickness is virtually never recorded. From 1979 - 1982 the diameter and wallthickness field is present for almost all records. This suggests that the data may not have beenentered into the database but may well have been present on the incident forms. It is unlikelythat an operator filling out an incident report will not know the diameter or the thickness incertain years only.This error was only found when a review on thickness and diameter as a cause of incidentsshowed so few entries for thickness and diameter. There may be many other variables wheredata has not been entered but may have been part of the hard copy reports filed.ERRoRS IN THE NATuRAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE PAGE A2-28

NJITcorrected only those variables needed to complete the work in this contract.A similar type of error in the database involved the thickness and diameter of the pipe involvedin incidents. The diameter of the pipe as given by the operators in the incident reports ·ftenlisted the outer diameter of the pipe rather than the nominal diameter as requested in theincident form. This results in a large number of entries for diameter. Similarly, the pipethickness is usually a "fraction of an inch". When entering the thickness of the pipeline as a"decimal" value, many different values are entered.The diameter and thickness from the original database and the corrections are shown later inthis report."REAL" FIELDS BEING ENTERED INTO AN INCORRECTPOSITION IN THE DATA FIELD RESULTING IN AN INCORRECTVALUE IN THE DATABASEALTRN DATABASEIt was found by the NJIT team that the OPS ALTRN Database values for the nominal diameterNMDIA of the pipeline as specified in the incident database was oft by two orders ofmagnitude. After consultation with OPS staff, NJIT was directed to adjust the original values forthe NMDIA by dividing by 100. The table below compares the original values divided by 100with the corrected values and shows any disagreements. There are 5,239 records in thecorrected ALTRN Database of which 260 records needed additional corrections beyond dividingthe original value by 100. Several values were still off by orders of magnitude while most of the260 values were entered correctly into the database and had to be returned to their originalvalue.ERRORS IN THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE PAGE A2-35

APPENDIX A-2 TYPOGRAPHIC ERRORS IN ENTERING THE DATA INTO THE DATABASE Typographic errors can occur anywhere in the entering of data. The best way to avoid this type of error is to have a third party check the data when it is entered. The NJIT team picked up some errors when reviewing the data. Examples of these include: * When reviewing the diameter and thickness data together one can see examples where a diameter or thickness variable is clearly in error and the correct solution is obvious. * By comparing the annual reports for individual operators, one can pick up a typographic error because the value varies for one year as compared to the other ten years. AT7079 ANNUAL REPORTS DATABAsE Certain values in the A17079 Database by comparing values for individual operators for all of the years included in the database. The records were flagged as having an error by comparing the total miles, by operator, for decade of installation and diameter. In some cases the error was obvious and easily corrected. In other case, the error was corrected by the NJIT team using their best estimate. The tables below show the original and the corrected values in the table for various fields studied.

APPENDIX A-2INCORRECT DOCUMENTATION OF THE DATABASETwo different copies of the official RSPAJOPS forms used to document the annual reportsdatabase may be found in Appendix Il of this report. These are copies of the forms given toNJIT by RSPA/OPS personnel. The form with the field names was given to NJIT at the onset ofthe project.The next to the last column on the first page is headed 1/1/80 TO 12/31 OF THE REPORTINGYEAR. Since the forms were used from 1970 to 1979, it did not seem reasonable to the NJITteam that the 1980 column could be on the form with values in the fields. How could there be150 miles of pipe installed in 1980 be known in a report filed in 1972?When NJIT inquired of RSPNOPS personnel, the response was, this is the correct form. NJITpersonnel then inquired if a hard copy of a form filed by an operator in the `70's might beavailable. A copy was located by RSPNOPS personnel and forwarded to NJIT. This is thesecond form in Appendix II. The general fields are the same in general but off by one decade.ERRoRs IN THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE PAGE A2-45

APPENDIx A-3 NORMALIZING DATA IN THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE INTRODUCTION This appendix describes the specific areas where normalizing data is lacking to draw statisti- cally significant inferences for RSPA to use in program development in such areas as risk as- sessment and risk management, and recommend methods for obtaining such data, including recommendations for revising the reporting forms to provide normalizing data. SPECIFIC AREAS WHERE NORMALIZING DATA IS LACKING TO DRAW STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT INFERENCES The OPS database is an important tool in determining the strengths and weaknesses of the transmission pipeline system with regard to the probability of the occurrence of an incident! accident. The database is divided into two distinct components. The first is the detailed de- scription of each individual incident/accident. The second is the annual report that describes the total pipeline system each year. The OPS database has need for modification in order to strengthen it for analysis purposes. The general area of modification includes: * The data obtained for the database has changed significantly several times over the pe- riod it has been taken. Supplemental data should be obtained to make a consistent and functional database for the entire period of record. * The data recorded in the annual reports doesn't include all of the factors taken in the in- cident reports. As an example, the incident reports from `70-'79 included information on the type of cathodic protection used on the pipe where the incident occurred. This detail is not included in the annual reports. Were information of this type available in the an- nual reports, one could normalize the incident data and have a basis for comparing the effectiveness of the cathodic protection utilized. This additional information is required to allow for a statistical analysis of the data and a deter- mination of the probability of the occurrence of an incident on the basis of individual factors for the entire period of record. These data is required in the description of individual incidents as well as the annual reports. In order to draw statistical inferences it is important to be able to normalize the data, e.g. ex- press incident data as incidents per mile year for the various factors to be considered. Exam- ples of normalizing data needed in the RSPAIOPS database are given below. NoRMALIZING DATA IN THE NATuRAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE A3-1

Page 197: NOTICEThis document is disseminated under the ...pstrust.org/docs/usdot_doc1.pdf · Pipe wall thickness is a key factor in pipeline safety and reduced inci-dent rates.INCIDENT PRESSURE

APPENDIx A-3NORMALIZING DATAConsider the ALTRN `70-'82 and AT7079 `70-'79 incident and annual reports, respectively.For the period 1970-1979, the average number of miles of transmission pipelines with coatedpipes is found as 229,400 mi. For the same period, 29,960 mi of pipe, on average, were un-coated. Consider the incidents reported for that period, where the cause was corrosion, 350incidents occurred on bare pipes and 459 incidents on pipes that was either coated or wrapped.The incident rate for that period may be normalized as: COATED PIPE INCIDENT RATE = 459/229,400 = 0.20 incidents/i ,000 mi-yr UNCOATED PIPE INCIDENT RATE = 350/29,960= 1.17 incidents/i ,000 mi-yrIt is easy to draw the conclusion, statistically, that coating reduces the rate of corrosion failures.If the data were not normalized, it would be expressed as: COATED PIPE INCIDENT RATE = 459 incidents per year UNc0ATED PIPE INCIDENT RATE = 350 incidents per yearIn non-normalized form, it is not possible to draw any conclusions on the effectiveness of coat-ing a pipe. In fact if one didn't know that there were many more miles of coated pipe as com-pared to non-coated, one might draw the incorrect conclusion that coated pipe has a "higher"incident rate.Normalizing the data clearly shows the importance of coating pipe in reducing corrosion fail-ures.Such of data are not uniformly available for many of the factors in the later databases. Thedata are further enhanced if broken down by year of installation of the pipeline.INCIDENT AND ANNUAL REPORT DATABASESThe information requested in the annual reports has changed several times over the period ofrecord from 1970 to the present. The most extensive amount of data was obtained in the ear-lier years. The earlier database serves as a possible baseline for the annual summary data.In addition, the data required in the earlier incident reports, ALTRN, were not always mirrored inthe annual report AT7079. The overall database would be strengthened if the miles of pipe ineach of the categories found in ALTRN and given below were known.Information obtained in ALTRN that is not also contained in AT7079 includes the following:NORMALIZING DATA IN THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE A3-2

APPENDIX A-3Other data that are not summarized in the annual reports but would probably not be available orwould not be of use in normalizing data include, for example: INITIAL TEST DATA - TEST MINIMUM TEST PRESSURE - MNOSIOther data summarized in some of the Annual Reports but not part of the incident reports in-clude: FREQUENCY OF INSPECTION OF PIPELINESOther information that is not obtained either in the incident/accident or annual reports that mightbe useful would include: * Frequency of inspection at incident/accident location and for the entire system on an annual basis. * Right of Way width at incident/accident location and for the entire system updated on an annual basis. * Type of mapping scale of the pipeline available at incident/accident location and for the entire system and updated on an annual basis.Not all of the variables given above are of equal value in improving risk assessment in the pipe-line industry. Without detailed knowledge gained from an improved database, it is difficult toremove factors from consideration.In addition it would be useful to update the later incident and annual reports to include some ofthe data as used in the original reports. These might include the following. AGE OF PIPE One of the questions that is currently being asked with regard to the incident rate is the re- lationship of failures to the age of the pipe. It would be useful to supplement the existing annual reports with data on pipe age in the various operator systems to include: Miles of pipe in the operators system by construction decade, prior to 1940, `40's, `50's, `60's, `70's, `80's and `90's for all pipe, coated pipe, uncoated pipe, cathodic protected pipe and not protected pipe. MILES OF PIPE BY NOMINAL SIZE The groupings of pipe diameter used in TRANS annual report `84 - is adequate, although not as detailed as the ALTRN `70 - `79 database. The same data as used in TRANS may be extracted from the earlier databases for consistency in the analysis over the years. The groupings should split at the limiting size for pigging so as not to cause a future problem.NORMALIZING DATA IN THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE A3-4

Page 200: NOTICEThis document is disseminated under the ...pstrust.org/docs/usdot_doc1.pdf · Pipe wall thickness is a key factor in pipeline safety and reduced inci-dent rates.INCIDENT PRESSURE

APPENDIx A-3 FREQUENCY OF INSPECTION AND SURVEY The data included in the earlier databases should be updated from 1982 to 1994. This would allow for the normalizing of the data based on inspection activities and would include the type and frequency of inspection. INJURIES AND PROPERTY DAMAGES It is assumed that all incidents resulting in significant property damage or injury would result in the filing of an incident report. The yearly summary may then be obtained by adding the individual incident report values and requires no change in the annual report. NEW INFORMATION * The number of miles of pipe, by year of construction and diameter of pipe, that is subject to pigging, by type and frequencies needed in order to determine the effectiveness of "pigging" on a statistical basis. * The number of repairs made each year based on pigging information should also be pro- vided to again determine the effectiveness of avoiding accidents based on this technology. INCIDENT REPORT DATABASE ENvIRoNMENTAL DESCRIPTION The data collected for the ALTRN database on environmental description should be obtained for the later PIP and TLEAK incident databases, appx. 1982-1994. The data includes: PREDOMINANT TYPE OF AREA AT TIME OF CONSTRUCTION AT TIME OF THE INCIDENT Commercial Commercial Industrial Industrial Residential Residential Rural Rural - Undeveloped Undeveloped Unknown Other Other _____ NEW INFORMATION Each incident report should be updated to indicate if the section of pipe involved in the incident is pigged and when the last "pigging" review was conducted. FORMAT FOR ANNUAL REPORTS AND INCIDENT REPORTS The format for the data to be gathered in the annual reports which would then be referenced in the incident/accident reports is well illustrated in the Comprehensive Inspection Report of New NORMALIZING DATA IN THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE A3-5

APPENDIX A-3Jersey Gas Transmission Pipeline Operators' abbreviated summary tables. An expanded ver-sion of this table see questionnaire in the next section of this report would be the basis of avery workable database. Incidents could be related to the specific section of pipe as in the ta-ble.This format for data gathering is required to allow for cross correlation of the various factors thatcontribute to incidents/accidents.Utilization of this format would require significant effort on the part of the operators in datagathering, It should be considered for future data rather than for the historical data cited above.METHoDs FOR OBTAINING THE NORMALIZING DATAThere are several approaches available for supplementing the OPS database and thereby ob-taining the needed data to normalize the results of the study. These are as follows:1. The data may be obtained by sending a questionnaire to 8 - 10, large, small and medium operators see next section of this report for a copy of a possible questionnaire. Assuming that the survey group represents the entire population statistically, normalized results may be inferred for the entire population of operators. The larger the sample population, the better the representation of the entire operator population. It appears that the required data exists at the individual operators and every effort should be made to acquire same.2. GRI/AGA/INGAA could compile the data on a nationwide basis. They could then remove any reference to the individual operators and provide the sanitized results for use by OPS.3. OPS could obtain the data in the future as part of the regulatory requirements for reporting incidents and annual summaries. These data could then be used by RSPAIOPS as they become available. The new database would improve every year because new data are being added.CHANGES TO INCIDENT REPORTSThe cause of an incident as used in all incident reports include the following categories: * CORROSION * DAMAGE BY OUTSIDE FORCES * CONSTRUCTION DEFECT OR MATERIAL FAILURE * OTHERThe hazardous liquid database utilizes a more detailed choice of incident causes. These shouldbe considered for adoption by the gas pipeline incident reports. These variables include:NORMALIZING DATA IN THE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE DATABASE A3-6
