N2 - For many years, different methods for computing the failure pressure of buried pipelines that transport crude oil, natural gas or any hydrocarbon derivative have been regularly implemented; however, these methods work with variables affected by uncertainty. Therefore, in this paper, the authors present a Monte Carlo methodology to evaluate the probabilistic behavior of several failure pressure methods in order to estimate their effect in the probability of failure calculations from the information published by the Pipeline Research Council International (PRCI) for the actual failure pressure of corroded pipelines.
