When pipeline regulatory approval takes longer

This one took 5 times longer than usual

deadline Regulatory approval sometimes takes longer than you expect. If that approval is on your critical path, your whole project could be late.

An operator had a 9 inch pipeline sweet pipeline that he decided to rerate to sour service and increase the maximum operating pressure by almost double.

His solution was to install a 6 inch fiberglass liner to change to sour oil well effluent service. This application was difficult but it was finally approved. But it took five times longer than usual.
