Pipeline Assemblies: Decisions and Consequences

Pipeline Assemblies: Decisions and Consequences – Event Recap

Code selection is one of the most important decisions made during the design of a pipeline assembly, influencing everything from welding and materials selection through to testing, operability and long-term compliance.

In this APGA technical webinar, a panel of leading industry experts explores the practical implications of selecting between AS2885 and piping codes such as ASME B31.3 and AS4041. Through discussion and real-world examples, the session examines scope boundaries, engineering judgement, welding requirements, pressure testing considerations and the downstream consequences of early design decisions.

Whether you are involved in design, construction, operations or asset management, this webinar provides valuable insights to support fit-for-purpose, compliant and operationally effective pipeline assembly design.
