World Pipelines - April 2026
The April 2026 issue of World Pipelines centres on how pipeline infrastructure is evolving to support the energy transition while maintaining integrity and reliability. A key theme is the uncertain trajectory of hydrogen, with the keynote questioning whether the hydrogen economy can realistically deliver without coordinated development of production, transport, and demand. Alongside this, the issue explores the often-overlooked role of pipeline networks as critical, ‘invisible’ infrastructure underpinning regions like Texas, while also addressing practical challenges such as distortion management, crack detection, and extending pipeline lifespan through improved inspection and data-driven approaches. Offshore topics include long-term flexible pipe integrity and the repurposing of pipelines for new uses like hydrogen, while broader industry progress is reflected in IPLOCA’s 60 year milestone and the rapid growth of HDD technologies to meet increasing global project demand.
World Pipelines - March 2026
The March 2026 issue of World Pipelines opens with a keynote focus on CCS pipelines. From there, we move into construction and project delivery, with insights from Saudi Aramco and CRC Evans, alongside features on safer construction practices and smarter backfilling. We also cover pig launchers and traps, modern pressure testing, hot tapping, valves, integrity management, coatings and corrosion mitigation. We close by looking ahead, examining how AI, automation, and digital service strategies are helping operators future-proof critical pipeline infrastructure in an evolving energy landscape.
World Pipelines - February 2026
The February 2026 issue of World Pipelines covers cybersecurity and software architectures, integrity management, corrosion prevention, composite repairs, and advanced monitoring. Technical articles explore how digital tools, smarter diagnostics, and engineering best practice are reshaping pipeline operations. With contributions spanning laboratory innovation, materials science, lifting and construction safety, and fenceline detection, the issue reflects the industry’s growing emphasis on risk reduction, operational confidence, and end-to-end infrastructure protection.
