SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING PIPELINE ASSET INTEGRITY
First Claim
1. A computer executable method for determining integrity of assets comprising:
- identifying one or more risk factor conditions associated with one or more assets;
evaluating the one or more risk factor conditions associated with the one or more assets;
assigning non-linear weighted values to the one or more risk factor conditions based at least in part on evaluating the one or more risk factor conditions;
determining one or more risk scores for the one or more assets based at least in part on the non-linear weighted values; and
outputting the one or more risk scores.

Abstract
Certain embodiments of the invention may include systems, methods, and apparatus for determining pipeline asset integrity. According to an example embodiment of the invention, a computer executable method is provided for determining integrity of assets. The method can include identifying one or more risk factor conditions associated with one or more assets; evaluating the one or more risk factor conditions associated with the one or more assets; assigning non-linear weighted values to the one or more risk factor conditions based at least in part on evaluating the one or more risk factor conditions; determining one or more risk scores for the one or more assets based at least in part on the non-linear weighted values; and outputting the one or more risk scores.
