Although a substance in many gas pipelines called “Black Powder” is known and understood by many as an old problem, there are others who are discovering it as a new problem or at least a problem that was previously a nuisance that has now made major impacts on pipeline integrity and operations and maintenance costs. This paper presents an overview of what black powder is, where it comes from, and more importantly, who should know about it and whose responsibility it is to control it. There are two areas of primary importance to address in dealing with the problem. First, the influence that gas tariff agreements have upon the corrosion potential of the gas brought into a pipeline, based on prior GMRC funded research, and secondly the approaches companies should take to control it.
