Data is what fuels safety transformation

Yet, only 15% get what they need from

their datasay improving the use of data is a top priority

have a plan to build a system of insights to become data-driven

90%

71%

IMPORTANCE:

• PHMSA oversees the safety 2.8 Million miles of pipeline• Risk management • Cost management• Infrastructure maintenance

BENEFITS of DATA FUSION and AI• Combing information resources will create a more accurate

picture of what is going on in the community (especially in better understanding the origin of rare events).

• Possession of complete and accurate data leads to deeper analysis and system safety enhancements that benefit the entire industry.

• Fused data equals shared analysis. Collaborative analysis by a broad-based community of experts has consistently provided superior risk reduction.

• AI allows us to capture data and covert it to actionable information.

DATA VOLUME and VARIETY

PHMSA holds hundreds of thousands of data points:

• 134,241 Event Records that describe some aspect of pipeline operational risk

Non-destructive Evaluation (NDE)The use of robotic systems “pigs” that crawl through the pipeline to identify anomalies that may be predictors of pipeline failures.

DATA FUSION – The Challenge

Extending our analytical capabilities• Fusing

different data types and

• Analytical scope from forensic to predictive

Page 8: The Safety Data Transformation · The Safety Data Transformation Dr. Sherry S. Borener. Senior Research Advisor. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) Data

… and accident prevention

The Goal - Enhanced Threat Detection

BENEFITS of AI to NDE• Allow us to identify a digital signature for

potential failures and reduce the time it takes to act

• Reduce false positives and the associated costs

• ‘Allow Operators to compare significant anomalies identified/mile and assess impact of quality or process of NDE techniques vs. effectiveness.

• Ultimately – improve safety
