Background

The Pipeline Simulation Interest Group (PSIG) was formed in 1969. Its purpose is to facilitate the interchange of information and to advance the state of the art in the areas of modeling, simulation, optimization, transient flow, two phase flow, and related subjects as applied to gas, liquids, and solids pipeline systems.

PSIG is an independent group, and is not affiliated with any other organization. It is administered by an executive council and operates in an unstructured, informal manner.

An annual meeting is held each year in October at various locations around the country. This one and one-half day meeting is attended by about 170 people who represent major gas companies, major oil companies, specialized consultants, and universities in the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, and Asia. Papers of a high caliber are presented in a relaxed atmosphere where informality is the key. Strong emphasis is placed on discussion of the presented material.
