5. Structure / WOC 3 Study Group 3.1 Study Group 3.2 Study Group 3.3
NEW TRANSMISSION PROJECTS
Study Group 3.2
INTEGRITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
Study Group 3.3
PUBLIC ACCEPTANCE & NEW TECHNOLOGIES
To enunciate the approach of the Asset Management Systems.
To inform new developments to reduce gaps that exist in terms of integrity threats.
To propose strategies to prolong the life of ageing pipes or to reclassify the ones in use.
To describe what Governments (with the applications of new rules), companies and suppliers are doing to improve “Third party damage prevention”.
To identify critical tasks that affect the integrity management
Provide appropriate training to personnel who perform qualified tasks
This Study Group will take over the work done by the Current SG 3.3 to build on it strategies that support the HR topic of an effective IMS.
Moreover, this Study Group will be responsible for building and maintaining a DATABASE OF THE TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS .
PUBLIC ACCEPTANCE:
To ensure effective communication with the public.
To show that the most convenient means of energy transportation is by pipelines.
To report on different actions that the companies are taking for environmental footprint reduction.
THE IMPACT OF THE NEW SOURCES ON TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS:
To summarize the new gas sources in the world.
To analyze and present possible topics like: cross country tolls, long haul tariffs, environmental regulations, regulations for open access with free flow of gas and hubs.
NEW TECHNOLOGIES APPLIED TO TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS
To discuss new pipe materials
To propose alternative uses of the pipeline (e.g. CO2). 
To report strategic transmission infrastructure projects
To deal with the problem of acceptance of technology and technical constructions.
To study the feasibility of new pipelines with small distances to areas of densely populated areas.
To study improvements in the compression process, turbo machineries, performance optimization, emissions.   5

6. WOC 3 : Transmission 1/3
Study Group 3.1 (SG3.1) : NEW TRANSMISSION PROJECTS
Scope and Purpose
Every new transport project is complex and unique because of special characteristics. In some cases, the new project involves laying high pressure gas pipelines along very long distances, across difficult land, densely populated areas. Some projects have a combination of these difficulties. The purpose of this group is to gather information on new projects related to gas transport (pipeline and compressor plants), to analyze the solution used in each case and propose the best construction practices that can be applied by the industry in the future.
TRANSMISSION INFRASTRUCTURE:
To report strategic transmission infrastructure projects
To deal with the problem of acceptance of technology and technical constructions.
To study the feasibility of new pipelines with small distances to areas of densely populated areas.
To study improvements in the compression process, turbo machineries, performance optimization, emissions.

7. WOC 3 : Transmission 2/3
Study Group 3.2 (SG3.2) : INTEGRITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
Scope and Purpose
It is necessary to enhance the Integrity Plans in order to reduce risk of failure and accidents based on the Asset Management Systems approach.  
INTEGRITY:
To enunciate the approach of the Asset Management Systems.
To inform new developments to reduce gaps that exist in terms of integrity threats.
To propose strategies to prolong the life of ageing pipes or to reclassify the ones in use.
To describe what Governments (with the applications of new rules), companies and suppliers are doing to improve “Third party damage prevention”.
To identify critical tasks that affect the integrity management
Provide appropriate training to personnel who perform qualified tasks
This Study Group will take over the work done by the Current SG 3.3 to build on it strategies that support the HR topic of an effective IMS.
Moreover, this Study Group will be responsible for building and maintaining a DATABASE OF THE TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS of all IGU Member, containing relevant information about transmission network (physical data, performance, projects, new rules, etc)

8. WOC 3 : Transmission 3/3
Study Group 3.3 (SG3.3) : PUBLIC ACCEPTANCE and NEW TECHNOLOGIES
Scope and Purpose
It is convenient to create the best public acceptance of the gas transmission systems for that reason this study group will analyze the growth of the gas industry in two key aspects of the production chain. On the one hand the legal requirements that the provision of new gas supply sources (shale and other indigenous sources of gas) requires, such as: environmental, economic and other aspects. On the other hand new technologies applied to the gas industry to transport larger quantities of gas, and its components, in a safe and reliable way.
PUBLIC ACCEPTANCE:
To ensure effective communication with the public.
To show that the most convenient means of energy transportation is by pipelines.
To report on different actions that the companies are taking for environmental footprint reduction.
THE IMPACT OF THE NEW SOURCES ON TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS:
To summarize the new gas sources in the world.
To analyze and present possible topics like: cross country tolls, long haul tariffs, environmental regulations, regulations for open access with free flow of gas and hubs.
NEW TECHNOLOGIES APPLIED TO TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS
To discuss new pipe materials
To propose alternative uses of the pipeline (e.g. CO2).
