In this Q&A, offshore construction expert Richard Taylor shares technical insights into the condition of the Nord Stream 2 pipelines and discusses potential repurposing options — from hydrogen transport to LNG imports — as viable alternatives to decommissioning.
The volume of pipeline activity in the North Sea region — covering Denmark, the Netherlands, the southern part of Norway, northwestern regions of Germany and some parts of Sweden, Belgium and France — is accelerating this year, being mainly driven by the ever-growing energy demand, particularly with hydrogen.
Cathodic protection (CP) is a technique to reduce the corrosion of a metal surface by making that surface the cathode of an electrochemical cell. The cathode in an electrochemical cell is the electrode where reduction (and no corrosion) occurs.
Editor-in-Chief Michael Reed speaks with AMPP Chair Juan Caballero about the organization’s global expansion, workforce challenges, and efforts to strengthen training and certification programs in corrosion prevention.
An influential forum of oil and gas operators with a vested interest in subsea operations is tackling the challenges of aging offshore infrastructure through cross-industry collaboration.

In 2007, the Pipeline Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) released a Notice of Preliminary Rule Making (NPRM), known as the Control Room Management (CRM) rule. Since the CRM rule went into full effect in 2012, pipeline operators have seen significant transformation in the control room operation.
Argentina’s YPF has begun construction on the second section of the 272-mile Allen–Punta Colorada pipeline, part of the Vaca Muerta Sur project. The line will transport up to 700,000 bpd of crude oil for export, with SCADA systems, storage terminals, and offshore VLCC loading capacity.
The Australian government plans to continue the active development of the domestic gas pipelines infrastructure within the next couple of decades despite the protests of local environmentalists, who expect a sharp drop of demand for natural gas in the country already in the middle term.
