Due to the formation of corrosion products, natural gas liquids and gas hydrates in long distance pipelines, timely and effective pigging operations are necessary to improve the gas transmission efficiency, reduce pressure loss, as well as guarantee the safe operation of gas wells, pipelines and networks. Gas transmission efficiency is a parameter to reflect the working condition and cleanlines...

Geological conditions along long distance pipelines are complex. In consideration of differences in elevation and terrain obstacles, long distance pipelines are commonly laid through tunnels. Oil and gas pipelines are often laid side by side to reduce construction costs and minimize geological impact. The layout and construction of parallel oil and gas pipelines are more complex than those of s...

nowadays, compressible flow transmission pipelines are used in many industrial processes. pipelines in chemical processes, gas turbine power plants, natural gas transmission lines, and high pressure steam transmission pipelines are some industrial examples. therefore, learning the manner of treatment of a transient compressible fluid flow in pipelines with junctions and branches is important. i...

background: welding can produce dangerous fumes containing various metals especially carcinogenic ones. occupational exposure to welding fumes is associated with lung cancer. therefore, welders in gas transmission pipelines are known as a high-risk group. this study was designed to determinate the amounts of metals cr, ni, and cd in breathing zone and urine of welders and to assess the possibil...

THIS ARTICLE DEVELOPS A FORMAL MODEL FOR COMPARING THE COST STRUCTURE OF THE TWO MAIN TRANSPORT OPTIONS FOR NATURAL GAS: liquefied natural gas (LNG) and pipelines. In particular, it evaluates how variations in the prices of natural gas and greenhouse gas emissions affect the relative cost-efficiency of these two options. Natural gas is often promoted as the most environmentally friendly of all ...
