Book Description
This report, one of a series, is intended to provide a background for the analysis and evaluation of new pipelines being built in cold regions. Topics discussed include the initial design, construction, testing, operation and maintenance of, and modifications to, the 8-in. pipeline from the deep water port of Haines to military installations at Fairbanks, Alaska. The 626-mile multi-product pipeline began operation in 1956. The results of a corrosion survey completed in 1970 indicated that extensive renovation would be required to continue operations, and the section from Haines to Eielson Air Force Base was closed in 1973.
