Processes and systems for preparing sections of pipeline pipe for machine processing to form pin and box ends for assembly into pipelines using mechanical press-fit pipe joints. The prepared pipe sections are prepared to be fully measured and documented during both manufacturing and assembly. Installed pipelines include pipeline data monitoring systems coupled to a pipeline data management center for receiving, archiving, and analysis of the data records to aid in administration, operation and management, and troubleshooting of pipelines.
