A large number of oil and gas pipelines in the Russian Federation have been in operation for over 20 years. For these pipelines, the issue of assessing the residual resource is relevant. Today, much attention is paid to the problem of long-term durability of pipelines. Trunk pipelines are under the influence of cyclic loads and influences arising during operation. The acting stresses in the pipe wall do not exceed the allowable ones, however, they cause micro-damage to the metal structure. When assessing the cyclic fatigue of a metal, the main criterion is the relative damage to the metal. The use of non-destructive testing methods (ultrasonic and magnetic), as well as the establishment of a relationship between the number of cycles and diagnostic parameters, will improve the accuracy of the residual life assessment. When analyzing several diagnostic parameters, the question of data interconnection becomes relevant. Since establishing an empirical or semi-empirical relationship between ultrasonic and magnetic properties is a complex task, artificial neural networks (ANNs) can be used to solve this problem. The use of ANN in the diagnostics of trunk pipelines will increase the accuracy of the assessment and eliminate the subjectivity of data interpretation.
