A Review of Manufacturing Process of Polyethylene Pipe and Connectors for Applying in High-Pressure Natural Gas Pipelines

In this article various pipes used for transporting of gas are introduced and pros and cons of each one are elucidated. The pipes are categorized in three different subgroups including metallic, polymeric and metallic-wire reinforced polymeric pipes. Metallic-wire reinforced polymeric pipes are nominated as the best option for usage in high pressure pipelines transporting natural gas. As a resu...

risk assessment of exposure to gases released by welding processes in iranian natural gas transmission pipelines industry

exposure to welding gases can cause health adverse effects. risk assessment is a useful tool for good assessment of exposed workers. the purpose of this study was to determine the risk levels for exposed welders to welding gases. welders (n=239) were selected from iranian natural gas transmission pipelines industry from four regions in iran including assaluyeh, omidieh, loshan, and borujen. ozo...

Analysis of Potential Power Sources for Inspection Robots in Natural Gas Transmission Pipelines

Using Operating Data at Natural Gas Pipelines

INTRODUCTION Interstate natural gas pipelines are operated using sophisticated supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. These systems are used to monitor, control and analyze operations. Software which runs in conjunction with the basic SCADA system expands the usefulness of SCADA data to enhance reliability and efficiency of operations, improve customer service, and minimize u...
