PiPeline Week 2014 Show Guide www.pipelineweek.com
On behalf of myself, the Advisory Board, PODS, GITA, PennWell, and the many exhibitors and sponsors, I want to welcome you to the newly formed Pipeline Week.
The partnership between GITA and PODS to form Pipeline Week is exciting to all of us associated with both organizations. With PennWell once again forming the backbone for logistics and marketing we feel that this event will become second to none for its comprehensive content related to geospatial asset management for the pipeline industry.
The Advisory Board has been hard at work developing a program that showcases the breadth and depth of the work that our industry’s professionals are executing every day to ensure the safety and reliability of our nation’s oil and gas pipeline infrastructure.
We have gathered the industry’s top professionals to share and exchange ideas in both our traditional operator forum and a number of dynamic panel discussions sure to encourage the free flow of ideas between the wide range of viewpoints our conference always successfully attracted.
The exhibition hall, networking, breaks, and social event have always been a big part of our conference. Participation and interest continues to grow in terms of both the number of exhibitors and the variety of their booths.
We will once again hold our casino night networking social event providing a great opportunity to catch up with old friends and make new acquaintances and contacts.
I thank you in advance for your participation and continued support of Pipeline Week. I am certain you will find information, products and services that will help you bring continued success to each of your organizations.
I look forward to connecting with all of you again in Houston.
Best Regards,
Jeff Allen2014 Advisory Board ChairmanPresident, Novara GeoSolutions

Dear PODS Members and Associates,
The Annual Users Conference is one of the most valuable benefits of PODS membership, joining in the unique community of sharing real-world data management challenges and solutions. This year, there are even more opportunities to learn from pipeline colleagues, with the co-location of the PODS and GITA conferences.
This Pipeline Week partnership has created a highly valuable and content-rich event for PODS members and the pipeline community. This event promises to provide you with a very relevant spectrum of learning and networking opportunities focused into one convenient location. Also new this year, PODS will offer a full day of expanded training sessions taught by the PODS Technical Committee. This is the only occasion where these experts come together to present insights and experience, answer questions, and gather feedback from the PODS user-community.
As in previous years, PODS members attend the PODS User Conference at no cost. The Annual User Conference is one of the ways the PODS Association provides value to our members.
Exciting new developments are happening in the world of pipeline data management, and we, as a pipeline community, are able to identify and encourage solutions that address our specific needs, while also benefiting the pipeline community as a whole.
Welcome, and have an enjoyable, productive and enriching week.
Sincerely,
Kathy MayoPODS Executive Director

OPERATORS FORUM - Discovery Center
Based on the PHMSA advanced notice of rule-making announcement that came out this spring, it is clear that the minimum requirements of the National Pipeline Mapping System (NPMS) are going to change. An expectation of vastly increased location accuracy, more complete physical attribution data, and the addition of pipeline operational data makes for a far more involved NPMS submittal. It is clear in this “brave new world” that robust, integrated GIS infrastructure is necessary to better respond to these changes. Join us at the Operators Forum and share your thoughts and experiences with other like-minded industry peers in discussing exactly how GIS infrastructure could help and what the impact of these - and other potential - regulations will be.

Based on the PHMSA advanced notice of rule-making announcement that came out this spring, it is clear that the minimum requirements of the National Pipeline Mapping System (NPMS) are going to change. An expectation of vastly increased location accuracy, more complete physical attribution data, and the addition of pipeline operational data makes for a far more involved NPMS submittal. It is clear in this “brave new world” that robust, integrated GIS infrastructure is necessary to better respond to these changes. Join us at the Operators Forum and share your thoughts and experiences with other like-minded industry peers in discussing exactly how GIS infrastructure could help and what the impact of these - and other potential - regulations will be.

TRAck 2: ASSeT DATA MAnAGeMenT I Chair: David Nemeth, Energy Transfer
A GIS Approach to Assigning Pipeline Assets to Ad valorem Tax Boundaries Robert Maggio, GIS Data Specialists
Quantifying the value of pipeline assets by tax jurisdiction boundary is determined by compiling GIS map layers of the individual county and state tax district boundaries (school, city, conservation, college, hospital, etc.). Thousands of tax boundary polygons intersect with one another to generate the final polygon feature layer that contains tax district boundary names for all tax districts represented on each of the input map layers. The pipeline centerline GIS layer is then superimposed onto the tax boundary layer and the “identity” function used to create pipe segments by tax district.
Advanced facility Data Management for Regulatory compliance Troy Walda, Global Information Systems LLC Eric Klein, Global Information Systems LLC
Driven by an increasingly stringent regulatory environment and rapidly growing data complexity, pipeline operators are utilizing AutoCAD Plant 3D and enterprise databases to reconfigure how they store, visualize, analyze, and sustain asset data related to their above ground facilities. Operators are further extending the value of these technologies by storing and maintaining the full complement of as-built facility drawings in the same models, reducing the need to manage multiple drawing and/or data sets.

GITA Japan Spotlight Presentation: Potential Benefits of Sharing GIS Data Between companies, Public Parties Eiji Sumita, Asia Air Survey Co. Ltd.
Geospatial data are computerized, and the map which a country, local public entity, or company ends up using applies GIS software. A lack of data sharing between companies, however, requires that each deal with even overlapping data independently. The mutual availability of geospatial information would make maintenance more efficient and less costly for all participants. The integrated updating of maps would also help both accuracy and efficiency of the GIS process. By gathering geographic data from various sources and examining their potential usability in performing project updates, this paper will look at how quality and other technical issues can be overcome to build a usable multi-company database.
common Ground Alliance Spotlight Presentation: 24/7 Pipeline Protection Chris Thome, Rhino Marking and Protection Systems
According to the latest DIRT Report, more than one-third of all third-party damages root cause was the failure of the excavator to call for a locate. To make matters worse, even when a locate request is made there can be problems. The root cause of another quarter of the damages is miss marked pipelines, or no locate done at all. Pipeline operators spend countless hours and vast amounts of money on public awareness and educational efforts, but according to most recent four-year effectiveness surveys, the most effective tool for informing excavators of the presence and location of a pipeline is a permanent warning sign.
This presentation will take a scenario-based look at designing an effective and enduring marking system. It will look at problems with “the way things we have always done things,” and how to leverage a marking system for damage prevention in urban, suburban, and rural settings.

Solutions for Pipeline Route Planning Troy Bumgardner, Williams In today’s environment where speed to market is influenced by many factors, determining the best location to place a pipeline or above-ground facility has a critical impact on projects. Williams is building tools for our Engineering and Construction team to analyze a specified area and determine possible locations for pipelines, facilities, and even feature crossings, while minimizing impact to project costs and schedule. The goal is to eliminate costly and risky locations with characteristics such as steep slope, developed land, known difficult landowners, and great distance away from other necessary infrastructure.
Technology to Integrate Traceability, compliance and GIS Brett Vogt, Project Consulting Services Inc. David Hymel, Project Consulting Services Inc. Alan Bayham, Project Consulting Services Inc.
This presentation describes a currently available pipeline construction traceability system that merges and compares asset data with supporting documentation to ensure all pipeline records are “traceable, verifiable and complete.” Through the use of a web-based integrated GIS, this system allows a user to query the asset data and supporting documentation simultaneously and provides strategies to improve adoption of new technology by the entire project team.
Geomancy: feng Shui of facility Siting Jason Humber, Integrated Informatics Inc. Jennifer Still, Integrated Informatics Inc.
This presentation will work through a case study of a developing field in which well pads, access roads, and pipeline gathering systems must be sited, routed, and constructed using an expert decision support system which allows for full integration and interaction between various factors and disciplines involved in field development. This case study will demonstrate the impact different goals and constraints have on the outcomes and show how scenarios can be quantitatively compared to assist in decision support for more cost-efficient and conservative development.

Integrating Mobile, Web, and cloud-based Technologies John Abbott, 3-GIS
Leveraging the Web and Cloud-based environments provides effortless mapping in a preformat, scalable, architecture of GIS and Asset Management. As the demands of gas pipeline integrity management sweeps across the U.S., the ability to respond with an affordable solution for hundreds, if not thousands of users, is requisite.
Measuring the effectiveness of Your Public Awareness Program Micah Richie, Morris P. Hebert Inc.
Federal pipeline safety regulations require pipeline operators to conduct continuing public awareness programs to provide pipeline safety information to stakeholders, including the affected public. Pipeline operators typically use the USPS to send the affected public documentation about their pipelines. But how do operators verify that this information is being delivered to the appropriate address?
Structuring the Unstructured: Merging Big Data and Traditional Pipeline Data Models Peter Veenstra, Willbros Engineering LLC
This paper examines the impact of new technology on the common perceptions and practices used by the pipeline industry in storing and managing geospatial and other data types. A proposed approach for “structuring” geospatial data storage in a non-structured noSQL cloud-based environment for rapid retrieval, easy-access and use by many different users in a flexible and (hopefully) intuitive manner will be presented.

conference Alternates A Geospatial Approach to Pipeline Operations: Integrating Aerial Imagery, liDAR, and Remote Sensing for efficiency, Accuracy, and completenessDaniel Michalec, Woolpert
Pipeline operation, maintenance, and compliance are complicated tasks, impacted by numerous constraints and requirements, yet linked by a common component – geography. This presentation will demonstrate how merging aerial imagery, LiDAR, and remote sensing technologies can provide timely solutions to traditional problems over a large area, thereby reducing cost.
how to Satisfy a 25-year ePA Initiated court - Ordered Wastewater & Sewer Pipeline Agreement Without Digging, Inserting, Touching or Interrupting Oil Refinery ProductionGary J. Weil, EnTech Engineering, Inc.
Often EPA and court ordered sewer rehabilitation projects can shut down major facilities and cost millions of dollars to complete. This presentation will illustrate how major oil refineries have used new remote sensing and non-excavation repair technologies to accomplish major sewer restoration projects with no loss of refinery production, no digging and savings of hundreds of millions of dollars.
Maintaining Spatial Data Integrity in Pipeline Management Operations Patrick Cunningham, Blue Marble Geographics
Spatial data integrity is no longer considered a luxury; standards, interoperability, and geodetic accuracy and precision are basic requirements in today’s projects. This talk will cover strategies and techniques for working inside this new reality.
The Use of Surface Geophysical Methods in Planning, construction and Pipeline Integrity Management Gary Young, Underground Imaging Technologies LLC Steven DiBenedetto, Underground Imaging Technologies LLC
The use of surface geophysical methods, i.e. non-invasive exploration, to identify, locate and study subsurface features in the right-of-way surrounding a pipe or along the route of new installation can aid in planning and construction. Mapping third-party utilities can help in planning, design and construction since many pipeline projects are plagued by strikes from unknown utilities during construction.
from fiche to Tablets – A case Study of APA’s GIS Mobility evolution Andrew Lund, we-do-IT Inc
This presentation will cover the evolution of mobile GIS at APA, Australia’s largest gas company. It will cover the history of mobile GIS, concluding with a case study of their recent company-wide rollout of a tablet-based GIS application.
