JANA is a leading provider of consultancy and software solutions for gas transmission and distributionpipelines. JANA's key areas of expertise include pipeline integrity management, asset management and valuechain risk assessment. JANA is at the forefront of research in pipeline integrity management with theirstate-of-the-art quantitative probabilistic and mechanistic-probabilistic risk models. JANA's corporate headoffice is located in Aurora, Ontario.Gas transmission and distribution pipelines consist of many parts, all of which have to be inspected fromtime-to-time in order to ensure safe and reliable operation and prevent accidents. Each of these parts, or assets,is subject to specific inspection and maintenance programs. While the risk assessment is taking place atindividual asset level, different assets have different specifications, individual inspection and maintenanceprograms.The inspections listed above may have some interaction with one another. Currently, there is no commonrisk-based inspection framework for different subsystems and inspection programs, which makes it difficult toenact an optimal inspection policy with minimal costs. The proposed research would look at the asset-levelinspection methods and determine if a common platform could be developed across the spectrum of pipelinesystems. The goal is to construct a risk-based framework for inspection optimization of different assets in orderto provide a common inspection optimization platform for different assets and/or inspection programs. Thiswould greatly facilitate the analysis, reduce time and costs, thus resulting in savings to the clients and improvedreliability of the pipelines.

JANA是天然气输配管道咨询和软件解决方案的领先供应商。JANA的主要专业领域包括管道完整性管理、资产管理和价值链风险评估。JANA凭借其最先进的定量概率和机械概率风险模型，处于管道完整性管理研究的前沿。JANA公司总部位于安大略省奥罗拉市。输配气管道由许多部件组成，为了保证安全可靠运行，防止事故的发生，所有部件都需要经常检查。这些部件或资产中的每一个都要接受特定的检查和维护程序。当风险评估发生在单个资产层面时，不同的资产有不同的规范、单独的检查和维护程序。上面列出的检查可能会相互作用。目前，没有针对不同子系统和检查程序的基于风险的通用检查框架，这使得很难以最小的成本制定最佳的检查策略。拟议的研究将着眼于资产级检查方法，并确定是否可以在管道系统的范围内开发通用平台。目标是构建一个基于风险的不同资产检查优化框架，为不同资产和/或检查方案提供一个通用的检查优化平台。这将大大方便分析，减少时间和成本，从而为客户节省成本，提高管道的可靠性。
