Pipeline Preservation Options Between Hydrotesting and Commissioning

In this video segment, Kelly Baker explains the Zerust Oil & Gas approach to pipeline preservation in two common scenarios:

  1. When a new pipeline has been hydrotested but remains dormant prior to being commissioned.
  2. When an existing pipeline is shut down and mothballed for future use.

Key Pipeline Preservation Questions Answered

During the video, Kelly addresses some of the most frequently asked questions about pipeline preservation:

  • How long does a Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) injection protect a pipeline?
  • Is a VCI approach possible if the owner plans to use a biocide?
  • Are there any Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) concerns with using Zerust corrosion inhibitors?
  • What are the costs associated with a VCI pipeline preservation strategy?
  • How is the required amount of corrosion inhibitor calculated for a project?
  • What happens to the residual inhibited water once the pipeline goes into service?
