You know what they say about history and repeating itself. In an episode that we wouldn’t mind listening to over and over again, we get the answers to important questions about modern-day pipeline integrity.

Join us on the newest episode of Pipeline Things, where Christopher De Leon and Rhett Dotson are joined by special guest Andy Drake to discuss the history of pipeline integrity regulations and best practices. Rhett, Chris, and Andy discuss prescriptive and performance-based regulation (and Rhett takes a stance!), what “zero incidents” means, and moving forward in the industry.

 Highlights: 

• What is the relationship between performance and prescriptive-based regulations?


• Why are U.S. operators operating in the regulatory environment that exists today?


• What does it mean to “stand on the shoulders of giants” in the pipeline industry?


• Where did “zero incidents” come from, and what did the original creators mean by it?


• How are we seeing environmental impacts influence regulations?
