AER – Alberta Energy RegulatorAER – Alberta Energy Regulator

• An independent, quasi-judicial agency authorized by the Government of Alberta.

• Regulate the safe, responsible and efficient development of Alberta’s energy resources: oil, natural gas, oil sands, coal, and PIPELINES.

• Act under the umbrella of the Energy Resources Conservation Act.


13

Safety component – sour gas emissions, spills, pressure testing, ground disturbance

Land use component – pipeline right-of-ways, urban and protected area encroachment

Water use component – oil sands projects

Environmental component – orphaned facilities, carbon dioxide emissions

Pipeline Integrity ManualsPipeline Integrity Manuals

Three different manuals which are involved with pipeline integrity:» Pipeline Integrity Management Program

(PLIMP)

» Pipeline Operations and Maintenance Manual (POMM)

» Pipeline Integrity Management Strategy (PIMS)



PLIMPPLIMP

High-level document (a.k.a Tier 1 document)

Quasi-legal document as it is signed by a VP or equivalent and outlines commitments

“Statement of policy and Who does what” document

PLIMP cont’dPLIMP cont’d

The PLIMP is required under the Pipeline Regulation (Section 1.7).

Guidelines for manual are present in CSA Z662 Annex N.

The AER may request the document at any time.



PLIMP: Sections to NotePLIMP: Sections to Note

Key Positions & Responsibilities» Who is responsible for major integrity activities.

Supporting document to the PLIMP

Can be seen as a planning document, identifying the frequency and scheduling of integrity tasks.

Usually field-specific, and updated annually.

Not a legally required document; however, RAE experience has shown that ABSA supports it for steam lines.
