Recommendations – Re-Inspection Interval<br />
• If it can be confirmed that coating disbondment issues on<br />
the pipeline have been resolved then the re-inspection<br />
interval could in theory be extended <strong>to</strong> 5 years<br />
• However there is a large uncertainty associated with this<br />
<strong>and</strong> a risk that features initiated now could fail within 5<br />
years, if they are growing at the rates calculated in this<br />
report.<br />
• Therefore a reinspection interval of 3 years is<br />
recommended i.e. re-inspect before the end of August<br />
2012.
