In this episode, we sat down with Ali Rizvi, North America LNG Leader at Marsh to discuss how risk and resilience strategies are evolving for pipelines directly tied to LNG facilities, and why coverage solutions like delay in start-up and business interruption are becoming central to project design. Ali breaks down how proactive risk management can improve financing outcomes for multibillion-dollar LNG ventures, including real examples where comprehensive risk frameworks smoothed the path to final investment decision.We also examine the unique operational and insurability challenges pipelines face when linked to liquefaction terminals, and how performance data, maintenance strategy and safety culture can translate into materially better insurance terms—especially for aging infrastructure. Finally, we close with practical, high-impact risk management advice for LNG developers and pipeline operators entering the next surge of global project development.

Welcome to the first episode of a new podcast series launched by our sister publication, Petroleum Economist: 'What’s up with gas?' The series will cover the key developments happening in the natural gas space. In this episode, we discuss sanctions on Russian energy and specifically the US position on ongoing purchases of Arctic LNG 2 cargoes by Russia, the EU’s bold plan to eliminate Russian energy use and the outlook for gas demand and supply both in the short and long term.

Dennis Joel, CEO, AIQ, discusses the transformative role of AI in the energy sector, particularly in optimizing operations and enhancing sustainability. He highlights AIQ's collaboration with ADNOC and other global partners to develop innovative solutions that redefine industry roles and improve efficiency. The discussion also touches on the future of AI in oil and gas, emphasizing the potential for AI to change the narrative around the industry and contribute positively to society.

In this episode, we sit down with Grant Glover, VP of Technology Partnerships, and Magnus Bach, VP of Business Development at Atoco, to explore how their breakthrough approach to carbon capture could redefine what’s possible for the gas processing industry. They unpack the science behind traditional direct air capture (DAC) and post-combustion capture (PCC) systems—why they are so energy-intensive—and explain how Atoco’s innovations slash costs, reduce regeneration temperatures and eliminate pre-drying steps.

In this episode of Pipeline Innovations TechTalk, we are joined by Bryan LeMaster, Industry Marketing Manager – Oil & Gas for Endress+Hauser, to explore how cutting-edge measurement technologies are transforming oil and gas operations. The discussion covers the toughest challenges operators face in oil, gas and water separation and how technologies like Coriolis flowmeters, guided radar, radiometric devices and predictive maintenance systems are improving accuracy, safety and efficiency.

Germany plans to accelerate gas pipeline construction to secure energy supplies for both civilian and military needs. Despite growth in hydrogen infrastructure, reliance on imported natural gas keeps pipelines central to the country’s energy strategy.

In this episode, Sean Donegan, President and CEO of Satelytics, discusses how science, technology and geospatial analytics for early detection of pipeline leaks can greatly reduce the impact an event will have both on the environment and on your company’s potential remediation costs. 

Faced with lengthy grid connect delays and competition for power, it only makes sense that data centers operators are increasingly shopping around for their own direct pipeline connections to provide onsite natural gas-fired generation.

Trenchless construction industry veteran Grady Bell, of Bell Trenchless Technology, offers an overview of the biggest recent innovations in HDD and points out a few costly pitfalls to be avoided.

In this episode of Pipeline Innovations TechTalk, we spoke with Nav Sharma, Director of Product Management, Cybersecurity, Honeywell, on safeguarding assets from cyberattacks. This includes behavioral analytics and deception technologies, and what a truly proactive cyber-defense system looks like in OT environments.res to protect vital infrastructure
