On the Pricing of Natural Gas Pipeline Capacity

Pipelines play a critical role in matching the supply and demand of natural gas. The pricing of their capacity is an important problem in practice, both for pipeline companies and shippers, the users of this capacity, including natural gas merchants, producers, and local distribution companies. This paper conducts a normative analysis of how pipeline capacity should be priced by each of these p...

Experimental Study of the Residual Stresses in Girth Weld of Natural Gas Transmission Pipeline

In order to achieve integrated condition in the girth welding of high pressure natural gas transmission pipelines, the weld zones and its surrounding area should have good mechanical properties. Residual stresses are an important defect especially in the girth welding of the pipeline. In this study, two API X70 steel pipes (with spiral seam weld) of 56 inches outside diameter and 0.780 inch wal...

Neural Network and Data Fusion in the Application Research of Natural Gas Pipeline Leakage Detection

For natural gas pipeline, it has a leak or not is critical. The most commonly problems in the pipeline leak detection methods are the difficulties to identify, inaccuracy to locate, thus, the natural gas pipeline detection is difficult to be applied, therefore, the use of neural network multi-sensor data fusion of the natural gas pipeline leak detection is particularly important. In this paper,...
