ASSET INTEGRITY
Integrity Management Program Development
TIMS expertise and experience in the development and maintenance of Integrity Management Programs (IMP) started well before the respective oil, gas and storage regulations came into effect. We have developed and assessed programs for both small pipeline operators as well as Fortune 500 organizations. We help operators in the design and testing of their IMPs from an audit preparedness and program effectiveness perspectives. Each TIMS developed IMP has successfully passed PHMSA and state agency based audits.
Risk Management
TIMS has extensive expertise in determining and managing the relative risk (both probability and consequences) for both pipeline and underground gas storage systems consistent with current DOT and state regulatory requirements. We have been involved since the inception of the U.S. and Canadian rules as participants in code and regulatory committees that have developed the standards that shape the industry. TIMS is an advocate for the advancement of Risk Management and Assessment techniques and works with Kent Muhlbauer as a partner in this field.
Pipeline Safety Management Systems
TIMS has the expertise and experience helping companies assess, develop and implement pipeline safety management systems.
