“…Rainfall-triggered landslides cause large number of fatalities, damages and losses along the Andean, affecting human and animal lives, civil infrastructure, roads, crops, and the provision of public services (Nossin, 1999;Moreiras, 2006;Michoud et al, 2016;Younes-Cárdenas and Erazo-Mera, 2016), pipelines (Lee et al, 2009;Pettinger and Sykora, 2011;Bustinza et al, 2013;Contreras et al, 2013;García et al, 2013;Oliveros et al, 2017), and water supply systems.

Owing to the extraordinary latitudinal extent, a strong orographic variability with very high mountain tops, and the presence of deep valleys and steep slopes, the Andes and the population of the region are highly prone and vulnerable to the impacts of a large suite of extreme weather events. Here we provide a review of the most salient events in terms of losses of human and animal lives, economic and monetary losses in costs and damages, and social disruption, namely: (1) extreme precipitation events and related processes (Mesoscale Convective Systems, lightning), (2) cold spells, frosts, and high winds, (3) the impacts of ENSO on extreme hydro-meteorological events, (4) floods, (5) landslides, mudslides, avalanches, and (6) droughts, heat waves and fires. For our purposes, we focus this review on three distinctive regions along the Andes: Northern tropical (north of 8 • S), Southern tropical (8 • S-27 • S) and Extratropical Andes (south of 27 • S). Research gaps are also identified and discussed at the end of this review. It is very likely that climate change will increase the vulnerability of the millions of inhabitants of the Andes, impacting their livelihoods and the sustainable development of the region into the twenty first century amidst urbanization, deforestation, air, soil and water pollution, and land use changes.

“…Geological disasters often trigger pipeline accidents, leading to leakage and explosion (Wang and Pan 2017;Tang 2020;Xu et al 2022). Landslides can deform or even rupture pipelines, resulting in serious leakage, property and environmental losses, and social impacts (Lee et al 2009;Zheng et al 2012;Zhou 2018;Vasseghi et al 2021). To reduce the probability of pipeline disasters and determine the prevention and control measures, it is necessary to predict and quantitatively evaluate pipeline slope hazards.…”

China’s economic development is closely related to oil and gas resources, and the country is investing heavily in pipeline construction. Slope geological hazards seriously affect the long-term safe operation of buried pipelines, usually causing pipeline leakage, property and environmental losses, and adverse social impacts. To ensure the safety of pipelines and reduce the probability of pipeline disasters, it is necessary to predict and quantitatively evaluate slope hazards. While there has been much research focus in recent years on the evaluation of pipeline slope disasters and the stress calculation of pipelines under hazards, existing methods only provide information on the occurrence probability of slope events, not whether a slope disaster will lead to pipeline damage. Taking the 2015 Xinzhan landslide in Guizhou Province, China, as an example, this study used discrete elements to simulate landslide events and determine the risk level and scope for pipeline damage, and then established a pipe-soil coupling model to quantitatively evaluate the impact of landslide hazards for pipelines in medium- and high-risk areas. The results provide a reference for future pipeline disaster prevention and control.

“…For example, slope movement which is not an uncommon event can result in movement of soil in the axial direction of pipe resulting in axial load and deformation on the pipe wall. Similar axial load and deformation can also develop due to variation in atmospheric or operational temperature [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

“…The pipeline ruptured as it was compressed longitudinally beyond its capacity due to the movement of soil in the direction of longitudinal axis of the pipeline [12]. The Camisea pipeline in Peru ruptured six times during the first 30 months of operation because of landslide movements [3].…”

Onshore buried steei pipeiines are used for transporting oil and gas to various cities and iocations. These pipelines can be subjected to various loading, such as axial, bending, shear, and other complex loading from the geotechnical movements and temperature variations. For example, a buried pipeline situated on an unstable slope can be subjected to axial load and axial deformation. In addition, this pipe experiences pressure loading from the fluids that it transports. The buried pipeiines also need to endure corrosive environmental and as a result, corrosion occurs in these pipelines. Corrosion is the primary cause for structural failure of buried oil and gas pipelines and corrosion may lead to a catastrophic rupture failure causing environmental damage, injuries to human and animals, and loss of production and revenue. Hence, understanding the structural behavior and failure conditions of corroded pipelines is important for the pipeiine operators. Therefore, this project was undertaken to determine the conditions required for failures of corroded steel pipes when subjected to axial deformation and internal pressures. Then the effect of internal pressure, dimensions of the corrosion, and depth of corrosion on the faiiure condition and failure mode was studied. It was found that the increasing value of these parameters is beneficial for achieving a favorable failure mode, however it can reduce the axial load carrying capacity significantly.
