文摘Introduced in this paper are key issues about the lifetime and maintenance of pipelines in service. Some important conceptions are discussed, namely (1) The lifetime and probabilities of failures (PoF) of pipelines are defined,and their determination and calculation are discussed; (2) The key issues about the maintenance and safety of pipelines are demonstrated, and the optimal maintenance periods of pipelines are calculated.
