From your experience, what is the scope of work in a gas pipeline project for civil engineering and what is for structural engineer?
Thanks for your help

The structural guys may come in if a bridge is used (very rare today) and if equipment is need at each end of the line, like supports for pigging facilities Above ground pipe supports.
Typically, the two intertwine so much that they can do each others part fairly well with minimal training or education.

Is there a problem with defining a scope for a particular project or task?

On the other hand a 20-inch gathering system trunk line would have someone like me hiring a surveyor to stake the route I picked from topo maps, hiring arch and enviro pukes to do their stuff, then doing all the above ground drawings in my spare time and doing the pipe stress stuff on the back of an envelope. No Civil types involved at all.
This is the gammut from none to platoons. My last 20-inch gathering job was 5 miles and cost around $1.5 million. The Alaska Gas Pipeline will cost over 1,000 times that for the front-end engineering alone.
