Extending the Life of Ageing Offshore Pipelines Many of our offshore pipelines are now either showing signs of age , or are approaching the end of their design lives. This problem can be addressed by using a variety of engineering methods to predict the remaining safe life of the pipelines. These methods include both simple and complex fitness for purpose analyses , but must consider other aspects of the care of an ageing asset , e.g. inspection and repair. This paper presents a holistic view to pipeline life extension and describes the technologies in use today , and the technologies needed in future to ensure safe , long life operation.
