A STRATEGIC FOCUS ON LEAK DETECTION, INCORPORATING THE BROADER EMISSIONS PICTURE
LED BY INDUSTRY LEADERS WITH HANDS-ON EXPERTISE


HOW OPERATORS ARE ADAPTING TO OVERLAPPING REGULATION & IDENTIFYING SOLUTIONS
THAT BALANCE RULE COMPLIANCE WITH OPERATIONAL PRACTICALITY

How are your peers preparing for changing regulatory definitions on leak and
rupture detection
while simultaneously accounting for the 2025 methane tax?  

Which leak detection solutions are most effective for specific operational
scenarios?

The dynamic environment of pipeline safety regulations, underscored by the EPA's
latest statement on the Final Methane Rule and the complexities in deciphering
the Rupture Detection Rule, underscores the critical industry requirement for
swift, precise, and dependable measures in comprehensively addressing potential
pipeline leaks, ruptures, and methane emissions. This regulatory shift has
catalyzed a fundamental change in monitoring and response tactics. It
necessitates a more calculated strategy to navigate these intersecting
regulations, emphasizing the need for enhanced sensitivity in detection
technologies and a faster response time. This environment challenges operators
to pioneer beyond traditional methodologies, adapting to the evolving demands of
pipeline safety and environmental stewardship.

Coupled with the intricate nuances of the 10% Pressure Drop Rule, the industry
faces a rigorous test in precision and efficiency. This rule's stringent
criteria for monitoring pressure fluctuations compel the development of advanced
detection systems capable of discerning subtle changes, minimizing false
positives, and enabling swift corrective actions.

Further complicating this scenario are the Recent Changes in Liquid Detection
Clauses. These amendments necessitate a profound comprehension and seamless
integration of state-of-the-art methodologies to detect liquid leaks accurately.
The industry is propelled towards adopting sophisticated systems that offer
enhanced accuracy and reliability, ensuring compliance and safeguarding
environmental and public safety.

Equally critical is the Understanding of Complex API Codes for Leak Detection.
These comprehensive and technical standards form the bedrock of leak detection
practices. Mastery of these codes is essential for companies to align their
operations with industry best practices and regulatory expectations.

Lastly, the impending 2025 Methane Tax, encompassing all emissions, presents a
formidable financial and operational challenge. This tax underscores the urgent
need for precise methane detection and quantification technologies. It compels
companies to comply with regulatory mandates and adopt proactive strategies in
emissions management, reinforcing their commitment to environmental stewardship
and sustainability.

These often-overlapping regulations shape an industry landscape where
cutting-edge technology is advantageous and essential. Companies must invest in
innovative solutions that ensure compliance, enhance operational efficiency, and
ultimately adapt to an increasingly regulated and environmentally conscious
world.

Therefore, the focus of Leak Detection & Emissions Compliance – The Midstream
Strategy Conference 2024 is more than just navigating a series of regulatory
requirements. The essence of this strategic initiative is to explore strategies
and new technology solutions that enable pipeline operators to comply with these
regulations cost-effectively across different operational scenarios. To share
practical experiences on selecting and adopting new technology and on what
works. Versus what’s still unproven or experimental. Yes, the primary focus of
this event remains on leak detection. But still, we are also looking at broader
solutions for emissions management to meet standards for evolving methane taxes
and overlapping regulations. So, compared with last year, the event has much
more of a strategic focus.

Moreover, the industry is actively eyeing the potential of emerging sectors like
hydrogen and CO2 transportation. These new frontiers present challenges and
opportunities, particularly in ensuring these carriers' safe and efficient
transport. Key to these endeavors is the strategic investment in technologies
that can address issues like leak prevention and pipeline integrity, including
embrittlement. This year, we have exclusive strategic and technical
presentations on these subjects.

DAY 1: REGULATORY CLARITY AND ADVANCED DETECTION TECHNOLOGIES

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"As we navigate the evolving regulatory landscape, staying ahead with the latest
technologies is imperative. This conference is a key forum for discovering
vendors aligning with future standards."
VP of Regulatory Compliance, Large Midstream Operator, Texas

Our opening day offers an in-depth look at forthcoming regulations and their
implications, clarifying operator strategies for compliance. We delve into
critical topics such as the interpretation and application of the Rupture
Detection Rule and recent changes in liquid detection clauses. Understanding
complex API codes for leak detection becomes more straightforward with our
expert-led sessions.

Considering the impending 2025 Methane Tax, we will explore accounting methods
for all emissions, emphasizing the commercial impact on your operations.
Discover how operators leverage new technologies like hyper-spectral imaging,
fiber optics, and negative pressure wave monitoring, particularly for
retrofitting existing pipelines. We'll evaluate cost-effective solutions for
high-cost leak and rupture detection systems, including aerial surveillance and
advanced sensor technologies, ensuring you get the best ROI for different
operational scenarios.

"Our focus is on maintaining compliance while embracing technological
advancements in leak detection. This conference is a crucial junction for
strategic insights and practical solutions."
Chief Strategy Officer, Major Pipeline Infrastructure Firm, New Mexico

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


DAY 2: STRATEGIES, TRENDS & BEST PRACTICE USE CASES

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Navigating the Spectrum of Leaks and Emissions Compliance Challenges through
Advanced Computational Innovation, New Technology Innovation, and Enhanced Data
Utilization

"Our main focus is identifying technologies that can detect small, gradual leaks
and efficiently manage the resulting data. This conference is key for assessing
and implementing these solutions."
VP of Technology Development, Established Oil and Gas Corporation, Pennsylvania

Day two encompasses strategic and technical aspects of dealing with liquids,
methane, hydrogen, and CO2 leaks. We'll highlight the latest trends in tackling
methane emissions cost-consciously and discuss different roadmaps for developing
technologies for detecting hydrogen and CO2 leaks. Learn about advances in AI
and machine learning that enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of leak
detection, and understand how to troubleshoot leak detection system data to
handle false alarms and other anomalies.

"Ensuring the integrity of pipelines through advanced technologies is a top
priority. This conference provides a deep dive into computational methods and
real-world applications that are shaping the future of leak detection."
Engineering Lead, Pipeline Safety and Compliance Firm, Alaska

"Our team is working on improving computational leak detection techniques. This
is a prime opportunity to explore new methods that enhance efficiency, accuracy,
and data reliability in leak detection."
Computational Operations Head, Mid-sized Pipeline Operator, Louisiana

"Advancing internal leak detection systems, especially for small, pinhole leaks,
is crucial. We're interested in data analytics and machine learning to enhance
our capabilities, and this conference is an excellent platform for these
insights."
Director of Upstream Operations, Global Oil and Gas Provider, Oklahoma
