He is also widely recognized as a Quantitative Risk Assessment expert, with extensive experience in probabilistic risk assessments and consequence modelling.

Drawing on more than 17 years of integrity and risk management experience, along with his extensive knowledge of PiMSlider and integrity analytics, Miaad will work directly with clients to bridge the gap between integrity engineering, operational processes, and technology implementation. His experience leading integrity analytics and software strategy at Enbridge Gas provides clients with practical, real-world expertise in developing scalable, sustainable integrity management solutions.

ATP is committed to its North American expansion and is building a strong Systems Integration and Engineering Services Team to provide a robust, turnkey solution for clients. Under this expanded offering, ATP's specialists will deliver a wide range of engineering and technical services designed to accelerate data integrations, improve data quality, streamline workflows, support regulatory compliance, and enhance risk-based decision-making.

These specialised engineering services include, but are not limited to:

• Data quality reviews and completeness assessments.
• Data transformation and ETL tool development (integrated within PiMSlider or standalone).
• Geospatial data procurement and analysis, including building footprint and occupancy assessments.
• ILI and NDE data transformation, upload, and alignment services.
• Paper record and report digitisation.
• Fitness-for-service assessment reviews.
• Threat and hazard inventory reviews and assessments.
• Report automation solutions.
• Dashboard design and implementation.

In addition, Miaad will support clients through software implementations, upgrades, and optimisation initiatives, ensuring integrity management systems are configured to effectively support engineering requirements and operational workflows while minimising disruption to day-to-day activities.

"Throughout my career, I've seen firsthand how organisations can unlock significant value when integrity engineering, risk management, and technology are aligned," said Miaad Safari. "I am excited to help clients improve data quality, strengthen decision-making processes, and build integrity management programs that are both technically robust and operationally practical. Having worked extensively with PiMSlider from the operator's perspective, I look forward to helping clients invest in their data and leverage the software to make effective Integrity and Risk-informed decisions."

His appointment follows the addition of Doug Waslen, who joined ATP in January, and reflects ATP's continued investment in building a world-class team to support pipeline operators throughout North America.
