Pipeline Replacement
PG&E is replacing gas transmission pipelines in more parts of our service area than ever before:
• Engineer & permit the new pipeline
• Inform the community
• Construct & strength test the new line
• Isolate the old pipeline
• Connect the new line
• Pressurize the new line
• Release to Operations

Pipeline Replacement
• Gas Transmission Projects in Fresno County
• 2012, total miles installed = 16.2 miles
• 2013, forecasted miles to be installed = 9.1 miles
• Line 138……Installed 6.2 miles of pipe in 2012
• Line 138……Installing 0.3 miles 2013

Hydrostatic Pressure TestingPG&E is pressure testing gas transmission pipelines in more parts of our service area than ever before:
• Inform the community
• Isolate the pipeline
• Clear the pipeline
• Test the pipeline strength
• Reconnect the gas system

Pressure Testing
• Projects in Fresno County
• Line 138 (13.5 miles)…….hydro-tested in 2012
• Line 138 ( 3.4 miles)…….planned hydro-test in 2013
• Line 118A (0.2 miles)……hydro-tested in 2012
• Line 138D (1.5 miles)………hydro-tested in 2012
Total of 18.6 miles of pipeline pressure testing

Valve AutomationWe have several types of automation projects: replacing existing valves, adding or changing automation for existing valves, or installing valves in new locations:
• Inform the community
• Prepare the pipeline
• Install valve automation
• Test and connect the valve

Valve Automation •
• Plan to automate 3 valves within Fresno County in 2013
• Line 300A, 1 valve
• Line 300B, 1 valve
• L-138, 1 valve
![Page 13: 1 PG&E Pipeline Safety Enhancement Program (PSEP) For Fresno County Board of Supervisors Jeanette Ishii Sr. Government Relations Representative PG&E January.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070308/551c1100550346b24f8b5421/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Pipeline RetrofitsMany of our pipelines were designed and constructed before modern inspection tools called “smart pigs” were developed. These important devices travel through large pipelines to inspect welds and pipeline thickness, and identify any weaknesses such as dents or corrosion:
• Inform the community
• Install the access point
• Clear the pipeline:
• Modify the pipeline
• Test the new features

Pipeline Retrofits for ILI
The upgrading of pipelines will include the installation of Launchers and Receivers and removing un-piggable features (plug valves) to accommodate In-Line Inspections (Smart-pigs).
Line 300A (39 miles) was upgraded in 2012 for an ILI in 2013
Line 300B (39 miles) was upgraded in 2012 for an ILI in 2013
