This paper presents the IM (integrity management) of a relatively new and significantly sized subsea pipeline, focussing on seabed dynamics and pipeline freespans. The control of known/expected risks through RBI (risk based inspection) assessment, the inspections themselves, the sensitivities involved in the anomaly assessment through application of industry recognised practices and the considered actions to control these resultant risks are all demonstrated. The findings and results when implementing the chosen (through risk based selection) remediation program and how this in turn has provided knowledge that must be employed in the future IM of the pipeline are discussed leading to a conclusion that will be of general benefit to those involved in risk management in highly dynamic projects and not be limited to oil & gas or pipeline operators.
