To reduce the risks to arctic pipelines from natural or geologic hazards, a more sophisticated approach to routing compared to traditional methods based on only the shortest length of pipe or connectivity to existing infrastructure is needed.

As the design methodologies evolve for arctic pipelines, strudel scour, permafrost thaw settlement, and ice gouging need to be factored in with environmental and geotechnical data, limit states, and trenching and backfilling activities.

More than 10,000 global industry professionals are expected to attend the SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition (ATCE) from 9–11 October in San Antonio, Texas.
