Abstract:
Pipeline systems have been integral to the evolution of society for millennia. Concern over rapid climate change is motivating our energy systems to transition in efforts to reduce anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Pipeline systems will adapt through energy transition by flowing new energy products. Pipeline systems will also require greater resiliency during this warmest phase of the current interglacial. The presentation will discuss investigations underway within the Pipeline Engineering Centre that are related to both energy transition and enhanced resiliency while flowing diversified energy products.

Dr. Ron Hugo
Dr. Hugo is Professor of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering in the Schulich School of Engineering at the University of Calgary and since 2008, Director of the Pipeline Engineering Centre. He conducts research using non-invasive optical diagnostics and vibro-acoustic sensors to develop measurement systems for pipeline system health monitoring with application to both single and multiphase flows. Prior to his time at the University of Calgary, he spent four years working as a research scientist conducting atmospheric characterization experiments in support of the Airborne Laser Program at the US Air Force Research Laboratory in Albuquerque, NM. He has a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Calgary, and MS and PhD degrees in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Notre Dame, USA.
