In the oil supply chain, the refined petroleum products are transported by various transportation modes, such as rail, road, vessel and pipeline. The latter provides one of the safest and cheapest ways to connect production areas to local markets. This paper addresses the operational scheduling of a multi-product tree-like pipeline connecting several refineries to multiple distribution centers ...

FPSOs are useful in newly established offshore oil regions where there is no pipeline infrastructure in place, or in remote locations where building a pipeline is cost-prohibitive. In this study, hydrodynamic analysis of FPSO is inquired based Boundary Element Method (BEM) and wave forces/moments, added mass and damping coefficients of degrees of freedom are obtained by AQWA software. FPSO moor...

China-Myanmar oil & gas pipeline project covers 7,676 miles in all. The project met with complex geological conditions, construction types along the line, and long-distance oil & gas parallel laying pipeline. Because the pipeline layout and the construction are more complicated, it is necessary to make the stress analysis of oil & gas parallel laying pipeline traversing tunnels. Software CAESAR...

Most pipeline simulations are primarily concerned with performance of the pipeline, and the modeler typically assumes an idealized model of the control systems. The modeler assumes that control devices operate instantaneously and perfectly. This assumption is sufficient for a wide range of engineering simulation tasks, but inadequate for simulations used to training pipeline operators. For trai...

SAMEM (System for Analysis of Molecular Evolution Modes), a web-based pipeline system for inferring modes of molecular evolution in genes and proteins (http://pixie.bionet.nsc.ru/samem/), is presented. Pipeline 1 performs analyses of protein-coding gene evolution; pipeline 2 performs analyses of protein evolution; pipeline 3 prepares datasets of genes and/or proteins, performs their primary ana...

With the rapid construction of long-distance oil and gas pipelines, big pipeline network was gradually formed in China and its surrounding areas, therefore the management of pipeline production becomes increasingly complicated and difficult. In this paper, we propose a data model for pipeline production to support the planning, scheduling, distribution, metering, energy consumption, process tec...

One of the most important methods of transporting natural gas in Iran and other parts of the world is the utilization of a network of pipelines. Compression station and turbo compressor units play an important role in gas supply through pipelines. One of the primary concerns in these units is the reduction of fuel consumption. By cooling of exhaust gas from the source station, the pressure ...
