American Innovations’ Integrity Management Division Awarded
Pemex Refinación Risk, Integrity, and GIS Software & Services Contract

Littleton, CO – November 21, 2005: American Innovations’ Integrity Management Division (IMD), leading provider of integrity and risk management software and engineering services for the pipeline industry, announced that Pemex Refinación has purchased IMD software – including the Integrity Management Program (IMP™), Pipeline Database Mapper (PD Mapper™) and Risk Consequence Analysis Tool (RiskCAT) -- as the basis for their Integrity Management Program. All three of IMD’s pipeline integrity management applications will be used for hazardous liquid pipeline facility analyses throughout the country of Mexico. Pemex Refinación, the eighth largest oil company in the world, has roughly 55,000 km of pipelines for transporting crude oil, petroleum products, natural gas and petrochemicals.

Pemex Refinación made the decision to upgrade from IMD’s Integrity Assessment Program (IAP™) in order to take advantage of many flexible features included in the latest IMP software, including: client-server enterprise topology, pipeline and station facility data management features, data reference transforming tool, dynamic segmentation engine, extensive analysis results visualization tools, and multiple business workflow-based configurations (i.e. risk assessment, anomaly management, direct assessment).

Pemex Refinación has selected PD Mapper as a cost effective GIS tool to allow IMP users to quickly visualize any analysis results or data sets along a pipeline’s centerline displayed over satellite image base maps. RiskCAT will be used to perform five different hazardous liquid release consequence analyses, including direct, indirect, terrain, direct watershed and indirect watershed.

Upon starting the software implementation in Mexico City, IMD’s Project Manager, Colin Gagne, stated, "Pemex Refinación continues to be a strategic international oil and gas partner with American Innovations, so we have dedicated some of the industry’s best subject matter experts to this large and diverse project. I look forward to focusing on the development of new pipeline facility risk models for Pemex Refinación and fostering a successful long-term relationship.”
