About
the PIG
The
Pipeline Industries Guild was formed in 1957. Since then, it has
evolved to be the only association world-wide to cater directly
for the needs of the pipeline industry, regardless of engineering
discipline, application, or qualification.
The
Guild's membership comprises those with interests in pipelines world-wide,
transporting hydrocarbon products, chemicals, water, wastewater,
and many other substances, both on- and offshore. All are governed
by the industry's twin need to combine quality with safety, while
at the same time meeting all the latest environmental and legislative
requirements.
The
Guild is the respected authority within all branches of the pipeline
industry, and there are few pipeline engineering problems its members
cannot solve. Part of its increasing and unique strength is the
Guild's ability to attract members from all sides of the pipeline
industry, whether they be concerned with deep-sea pipelines or with
the latest developments on land in no-dig and minimal-disturbance
pipe and duct-laying technology.
The
Pipeline Industries Guild, has a clear vision of its future, in
which it will broaden its pipeline-engineering interests and continue
to cater for the ever-widening horizons of its expanding membership.
From
the point of view of pipeline engineering in all its aspects, the
Pipeline Industries Guild is the place where the disciplines meet,
and where leading-edge technology is discussed, analysed and disseminated.
As
well as its technical function, the Guild members participate in
a broad range of social activities, some of the most well-known
of which are the yearly Branch Dinners and the Annual Dinner in
London.
