General demographics survey for hydrostatic test water discharges from natural gas pipelines. Topical report, March-October 1995
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:195218
The report summarizes information regarding the quantity and frequency of water discharged from mainline transmission hydrostatic testing of new and existing natural gas pipelines. The research was used to determine the range and distribution of discharge frequency and water volumes associated with hydrostatic testing. The information presented in this report was obtained from a survey conducted during the period March through June 1995. Survey data were received from 27 natural gas transmission/distribution companies and two pipeline subsidiaries of major oil/gas producers. A total of 939 hydrostatic tests were identified or mainline transmission pipeline testing conducted in 35 states. Survey data were obtained for the period 1989 to 1995, but focus on data provided for the years 1992, 1993, and 1994, with a total of 624 tests reported for these years. Survey responses for the period 1992 to 1994 were averaged to represent typical hydrostatic testing practices on an annual basis.
