Abstract: There are several factors involved in a regulator and relief valve inspection program. Accurate and dependable service of a regulating facility is directly related to a workable inspection program. One of the most important regulating facilities in the gas industry is the district regulator. It is the source of gas supply to industrial, commercial, and domestic customers from transmission and distribution pipeline systems. Therefore, dependable and safe gas supply is a must. The way Co accomplish this is with an effective inspection program with constant attention to operations and maintenance of the regulator station. Todays regulatory agencies, safety practices, and newer more sophisticated equipment make more detailed inspections necessary. The purpose of this paper is to present some guidelines, methods, procedures, and expected results of a district regulator and relief valve inspection program. However, each company must make its own interpretation of what is necessary for regulatory and contractual compliance. Now, lets look at seme of the factors involved in an inspection program and hopefully we can get some ideas that will be beneficial.
