Call for Papers

The industry's only forum devoted exclusively to pigging for maintenance and inspection, as well as pipeline integrity evaluation and repair, this event will draw engineering management and field operating personnel from both transmission and distribution companies concerned with improved operations and integrity management.

You are invited to contribute to the proceedings of this vibrant international forum. Attention to pipelines has never been more intense, as their criticality to infrastructure and the incidence of failure due to aging and other factors have increased. Papers will be published in a printed volume distributed to the conference delegates and will be indexed and abstracted through important search and citation services.

We hope you will take advantage of this extraordinary professional opportunity and send your proposal for a presentation at the 21st conference. Proposals should include an abstract accompanied by the author's complete contact information and affiliation to:

Abstracts deadline: October 31, 2008.
Final paper/presentation deadline: January 5, 2009.

Note: We do not necessarily require a formal written paper. However, we do require that presentations be amply documented with copies of all substantive slides, viewgraphs, handouts, etc. Often a printed copy of a PowerPoint file will serve this purpose, if the slides contain a suitable amount of detail.
