Technical Guideline Development and Training

GTS developed technical guidelines, emergency plans, operating and maintenance procedures, and operator qualifications for many utility and privately-owned pipeline companies. GTS worked with the operating and engineering personnel to develop guidelines and plans that are specific to the client and not a canned one-size-fits-all product. In addition, GTS provided training to the client's employees on the implementation and tasks associated with the guidelines and plans.

The following is a short list of some of the products GTS has provided clients:

  • Right of way patrolling
  • Exposed pipe evaluation
  • Water crossing inspections
  • Integrity management plans
  • Gas emergency plans
  • City of Palo Alto operator qualification
  • Leak survey compliance review protocol
  • Regulator operation plans and procedures
