The approach

The rule is written as questions

Both integrity management rules are drafted as questions an operator must be able to answer - in writing, from its records. The work of this practice is answering them.

The engagements this practice looks for are long-term and strategic: program-level work carried as a partner rather than task tickets - acquisition due diligence, program governance, and compliance management, sustained across years the way the qualifications record shows repeatedly.

The problems they solve, and the regulation behind them

§ 192.911 “What are the elements of an integrity management program?”
Writing and revising the written program an operator has to be able to hand an inspector, and keeping it consistent with how the work is actually done.
§ 192.921 “How is the baseline assessment to be conducted?”
Planning baseline and reassessment work, selecting methods against the threats a segment is actually susceptible to, and interpreting what comes back.
§ 192.947 “What records must an operator keep?”
Getting an operator ready for a regulatory inspection, and working through the record set an inspector is entitled to ask for.

The practice

The engineer who scopes the work stays in charge of it

Operators of gas transmission and hazardous liquid pipelines. Part 192 governs gas and Part 195 governs hazardous liquid, and both put integrity management in high consequence areas at the center of what an operator has to be able to demonstrate.

Matthew Brown, PE is the principal engineer - licensed in Minnesota, personally involved in every engagement the firm takes. The work is delivered under his direction and carries his accountability: no account manager in between, and no distance between the conversation you have and the engineering you get.
