About the Course: This course provides in-depth guidance on managing geohazards affecting operational pipelines, aligning with the ISO 20074:2019 standard. Led by Andy Young, the course focuses on leveraging in-line inspection (ILI) techniques for hazard identification and assessment. These techniques offer precise measurement data to determine whether a pipeline has experienced unexpected external or operational loads. Through comparative analysis of successive inspections, participants will learn how to evaluate the activity state of geohazards and the threats they pose to pipeline integrity. ILI data also supports robust threat evaluations, including structural assessments. The course covers a wide range of topics, including geohazard characteristics, ground conditions, and terrain analysis.  Key Details: Dates: To be confirmed – please register your interest to stay updated Duration: 8 hours Level: Tier 2, Certificate Programs (Foundation) Delivery Method: Live, expert-led online training via Microsoft Teams Group Size: Small group - approximately 15 participants  Who Should Attend? Engineers and operators with an introductory understanding of the topic, seeking to deepen their knowledge Competency Standard: Meets ROSEN’s Competency Standard, Geohazards (CS051F) Upon program completion, you will receive: A Certificate of Completion recognizing your accomplishment, along with Professional Development (CPD/CEU) Hours to support your professional growth Presented by: Andy Young Andy Young is a Principal Geohazards Engineer with ROSEN Integrity Services in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Engineering Geology and Geotechnics from the University of Portsmouth and a PhD in Geotechnical Engineering from Newcastle University. With over 30 years of experience, Andy specializes in pipeline integrity, focusing on ground investigations, hazard assessment, pipeline loading analysis, and mitigation strategies. Andy has also contributed significantly to education and industry standards. He developed and taught the Pipelines and Geohazards module for the MSc in Pipeline Integrity Management at the Northumbria University and has influenced key industry standards, including IGEM/TD/1 and ISO 20074:2019. A leader in his field, Andy combines technical expertise with a commitment to advancing pipeline geohazard management.   Read more

Welcome to the 'Pipeline Energy Management' training course. This video-based e-learn training course has been created by industry expert Tom Miesner, and hosted in collaboration with ROSEN's Competence Club.   In this insightful training video, Tom will discuss keys to energy usage for controllers and schedulers, system resistance and power curves, motors and variable speed drives, centrifugal pump and station curves, Drag Reducing Agents (DRA), power contracts and rates, demand response, and more.    Meet the expert: Tom Miesner Tom Miesner spent twenty-five years at Conoco Pipeline, retiring as President in 2003. After retiring (the first time) Tom founded a boutique consulting business, serving clients in the oil and gas midstream industry. Over the past nineteen years, Tom has written four books, taught over 200 instructor-led classes, and produced numerous video-based oil and gas pipeline training materials. Tom also performs litigation consulting making him privy to many pipeline failures. As he investigated those failures, he learned from them, and then incorporated his learnings into his classes. Tom enjoys sharing his forty-five plus years of knowledge with others in the industry. Read more
