Pipelines carrying different crudes and chemicals across the country
You may know Keystone XL, but there are 2.4 MILLION miles of underground pipeline just in the US
An analogy on how you can apply how they operate to your life

Pipelines need to be inspected every 3-5 years to check for defects that may cause problems (cracks, dents, welds)
These can happen from normal wear and tear or from 3rd parties
Your life and systems need to be checked similarly
Use the right tools to find the defects

You want to optimize the pipeline by upgrading equipment and minimizing downtime
Replace pumps and meters, find where you can put more through the line
Upgrade the existing tools you have (digital/manual, sleep, diet, etc) in order to improve your throughput

Occasionally things break, and as an operator you want to minimize the release and figure out a solution
You need to be creative in your solutions. Plug it, redirect it, mobilize, and EXECUTE effectively
When your system breaks, focus on controlling and mitigating the leak
