Location: Tuscany B
Session Type: Breakout Session 
Speakers:


This hands on session will teach students to design a pickling strategy to counteract the odor loss in a newly installed steel pipeline. Participants will be presented with equipment and procedures that can be used to complete a pickling process. Variables (flow, pressure, pipe diameter and length, type of odorant, drying procedures, laterals, type of clients, type of pipe) affecting the start-up procedure will be discussed. Students will be able to design a pickling strategy based on a given set of real life examples. Students are encouraged to bring to the workshop upcoming projects within their organization; these will be used to discuss different approaches to prepare for a new pipeline start-up.
