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.
