AMPP SP-0200-2014 Steel Cased Pipeline Practices is the industry consensus guidance document detailing techniques to screen for and evaluate cased crossings for shorts. The Standard Practice (SP) provides various non-mandatory monitoring techniques that may be applied to evaluate the presence of a shorted condition.

This abstract provides a case study by one pipeline operator and their decision to utilize 50 mV as a potential screening criterion for shorted casings.
