16 Step 9 to Upload ILI Data Step 9

17 How to Create New Network Definition Step 1: Click on Create Network Definition Step 2: Click Add Node and save name Step 3: Enter Definition Name Elevation Validation checks for the last elevation point of the previous node to be equal to the first elevation point of the adjacent node. If these elevation points do not match, an error is displayed Table with Tabs Controls the Network Configuration Step 4: In the Source Tab A. Click Edit and then Add B. Select the Node that you want to configure as source Multiple sources can be configured C. Selected nodes can be deleted by clicking the Delete button D. Click Done

18 Network Definition (Continued) Step 5: Select the Link Tab A. Click on Add new link beside the Link Configuration and Create a Link Multiple Links can be created B. Select the Link from the dropdown options C. Click Edit D. Click Add to configure elements within the link Pipes, Wells, And Equipment can be configured as elements E. Select the Element from the dropdown option that you want to configure F. Select the definition for the above Element from the dropdown option or create new by clicking the create new button G. Click Done when complete

19 Network Definition (Continued) Step 6: Select the Sink Tab A. Click Edit and then Add B. Select the Node that you want to configure as sink from the available configured nodes Multiple Sinks can be configured C. Selected Nodes can be deleted by clicking the Delete button D. Click Done Profile can be created by selecting multiple links within the profile tab Step 7: Select the Profile Tab A. Click on Add Profile and enter the profile name B. Select the Profile from the dropdown option that you want to configure C. Selected profile can be deleted by clicking Delete button D. Click Edit then Add E. Select the Link that you want to configure for the newly created profile F. Selected Link can be deleted by clicking the Delete button G. You may either use the existing Elevation Profile for each segment or import a new elevation for the entire profile H. Click Done Step 8: Click Save to save the Network Definition Step 9: Click Validate to check if any errors exist in configuring the Definition

27 Step 12 Profile (CO2, Water Holdup and Remaining Life)

28 Step 12 Selection of ICDA Regions Corrosion Power Tool organizes ICDA Regions in a detailed process of existing, relevant, essential, historic, and current operating data about the pipeline segments and/or Regions, and subregions relevant to internal corrosion. This function identifies the flow regimes within a sub-region through multiphase flow modeling, determination of corrosion rates, and determination of assessment site based on the corrosion severity and flow influencing factors with these sub-regions. Corrosion Power Tool performs calculations to determine flow regimes, liquid holdups and corrosion rates to prioritize locations along a region.

29 Boundary Conditions Step 1: Click on Source Tab A. Select the Source you want to set the boundary conditions for from the Select Source dropdown B. Click on Edit to set Boundary Conditions C. Set Parameters D. Click Done when completed Step 2: Click on Sink Tab A. Select the Sink you want to set the boundary conditions for from the Select Sink dropdown B. Click on Edit to set boundary conditions C. Set Parameters D. Click Done when completed If elements are configured in the links on the left side (definition), they will be present in their particular tab in the operations section (right side) Step 3: Click on Pipe Tab A. Select the Pipe you want to set the boundary conditions for from the Select Pipe dropdown B. Click on Edit to set the boundary conditions (continued next page)

30 Boundary Conditions (Continued) C. : ILI Specification can be added based on remaining wall, actual depth or fractional depth (same as Pipe PowerTool) D. When Pipe Control is clicked, more options for pipe operations are displayed (fluid, flow and corrosion parameters) E. Set Parameters F. Click Done when completed Step 4: Click on Equipment Tab A. Select the Equipment you want to set the boundary conditions for from the Select Equipment dropdown B. Click on Edit to set Boundary Conditions C. Set Parameters D. Click Done when complete Step 5: Click on Node Tab A. Click on the Add Row button to configure a separator B. Select the Node from the Node name dropdown at which you want to configure the separator/stripping column C. Select the Property from the dropdown options D. Selected Nodes can be deleted by clicking the Delete button Refer to Help tools for any details
