Abstract
In-process welding has become a commonly used approach when installing upgrades or making repairs to piping systems that are live. Pipeline incidents occur every year, and they are often deadly and expensive. The research of this project set out to find out what components a standard operating procedure should have that would lead to reaching a zero percent incident rate while utilizing in-process welding to make money. Not every contractor has the internal processes formalized to perform this work safely in a high-quality manner. Successful execution of this work can lead to opportunities for contractors to expand their scope of operation and expertise further.
