Dr. Morgan Henrie interest in critical infrastructure integrity management and multi-national culture originated in the early 1980s while working on the Trans Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS). In this role he supported TAPS Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system, pipeline leak detection systems, SCADA cyber security and telecommunications infrastructures. After leaving TAPS Dr. Henrie started MH Consulting, Inc. whose focus is on critical infrastructure integrity management and cyber security as well as telecommunication infrastructure construction management.
Over the years Dr. Henrie has lead or participated in many significant projects such as the installation of an 800+ mile fiber optic infrastructure installation that extends from the Alaska North Slope oil fields in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska to the northern most ice free port of Valdez, Alaska. He was also a key member of the Department of Homeland Security Critical Spares project as a consultant to Sandia National Labs. Dr. Henrie was also the project manager who implemented the first Real Time Transient Model (RTTM) on TAPS as well as specified and managed the installation of one of the first U.S.A. installed thermal fiber optic crude oil leak detection system. Over the years Dr. Henrie has made significant contributions to pipeline leak detection systems through the various projects he has managed as well as papers he has published.
Dr. Henrie has published extensively on pipeline leak detection, cyber security, and culture within the engineering and project disciplines. His papers have been published in the leading Journals such as the Project Management Journal, Oil & Gas Journal, and the Engineering Management Journal. His publications have also been presented around the world at conferences hosted by the Project Management Institute, Pipeline Simulation Interest Group, American Petroleum Institute, and the American Society of Engineering Management. Other publications include the first ever definitive book on pipeline leak detection (Handbook on Pipeline Leak Detection), Cultural Influences in Engineering Projects, and Multi-National Project Team Communications: International Cultural Influences. Dr. Henrie was also invited to provide chapters to several publications such as the Fundamentals of Purchasing & Supply Management, Cyber Security Standards, Practices and Industrial Applications: Systems and Methodologies.
Dr. Henrie also assists in advancing the state of cyber security and project management industry through various volunteer activities such as leading the development of the American Petroleum Institute pipeline cyber security standard, API-1164 2nd edition, and contributing to the API 1164 3rd edition. He was also a significant contributor to the Project Management Institute Project Manager Competency Development Framework as well as the American Society for the Advancement of Project Management National Competence Baseline.
