The American Petroleum Institute (API) is pleased to announce that we are sponsoring our annual Pipeline Information eXchange (PIX). The 2024 PIX will be held at the JW Marriott Houston Downtown in Houston, TX on Wednesday November 6, 2024, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, followed by a reception for attendees.
As with the prior annual events, PIX provides a unique forum for pipeline operators to openly share information and lessons learned across a broad range of topic areas, including pipeline system incidents, near misses, industry best practices, and improvements made to pipeline safety programs through practical experiences.
The pipeline industry has a strong culture and practice of sharing lessons from incidents and process improvements. In support of our steadfast commitment to safety, PIX is held each year to share experiences with the aim of preventing similar incidents. API and LEPA have issued a Guide to Sharing and a Guide to Learning to facilitate greater sharing of and incorporation of lessons learned to improve pipeline and personnel safety and operational reliability. Please review these guidelines and consider sharing your own company’s experiences to promote industry-wide learning.
In addition to the PIX, API is also sponsoring a separate half-day pipeline safety workshop on the afternoon of November 5, 2024, from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm. The workshop is also being held at the JW Marriott Houston Downtown and will focus on industry best practices for corrosion assessment and integrity management on operating pipeline systems.
Please Note: The PIX on November 6 is for operators only. The workshop on November 5 is open to all interested participants.
The Program for 2024 PIX will be based on abstracts received from pipeline operating companies that are interested in sharing information to drive continuous improvements in pipeline reliability and safety.
Information related to submitting abstracts and topics for consideration in developing the program can be found on the abstracts submission page.
Registered participants will receive additional information as the program is developed.
