Inspection types and frequency vary considerably depending on the fluid you have in your pipeline and the risk level.
Many operating companies work on an initial frequency of 7 to 10 years and then adjust it when the results come back.
Tell us more and you'll get more back in response
Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.

We have cross country gas lines and water lines.
Currently there is no inspection regime being followed for these lines.
The purpose of the question is to get knowledge about minimum requirements mentioned in different codes and then align our inspection regime accordingly.
