The problem of managing technical and technological risks in main gas and oil pipeline systems, subject to the possibility of limited funds allocated for the prevention and elimination of the consequences of accidents, is considered in the form of a semi-Markov decision-making model for a controlled Markov process in continuous time with the criterion of the maximum average discounted income. To find the optimal nonrandomized Markov stationary strategy, a procedure is proposed based on reducing the formulated fuzzy problem to an equivalent Boolean programming problem with deterministic constraints. To solve the resulting system of inequality constraints, an algorithm has been developed for finding basic solutions for an arbitrary number of accidents and measures to eliminate them. The numerical implementation of the proposed approach is implemented for the real problem of risk management in the main gas pipeline with unclear cost constraints. Keywords: semi-Markov decision-making process, Markov stationary strategy, feasibility optimization, basic solutions to inequalities.

Many operating oil pipeline systems in North America, and throughout the world were designed to former pipeline codes, many over 30 years ago, which were less stringent than those in force today. Pipeline integrity management is an extremely important function for pipeline operators, and there are enormous advantages for pipeline owners to modify and improve the integrity of their existing pipeline systems and to meet the present-day requirements. A life-cycle analysis process has been developed, which can extend the life of the pipeline, while bringing it into regulatory compliance with present-day pipeline codes. This process avoids the necessity of (expensive) pipeline replacement programs. This process can also be applied to “non-loggable” (oil or gas) pipelines, to compliment external/internal direct assessment techniques.
