Abstract: The high costs and inconvenience to the public associated with the excavation and restoration of pavement for gas pipeline replacement and rehabilitation projects has lead Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) to expand its use of trenchless construction technologies. These technologies offer great promise in our on-going efforts to reduce the cost of natural gas distribution main and service rehabilitation. Over the past 5 years, PG&E has completed an exhaustive R&D program to evaluate the performance of Cured-In-Place-Pipe (CIPP) liners for gas distribution main and service applications. While a technical success, a number of obstacles remain to be overcome before this technology will have wide spread acceptance as a practical pipe rehabilitation method.
