There are numerous examples of energy policy failures (Heffron et al., 2018) which now being systematically studied to provide for much-needed policy-relevant perspectives into key definitions, contexts, and theoretical frameworks analysis (Sokołowski Heffron, 2022). This paper will focus on one the prominent an failure; case Turkey – Austria natural gas pipeline project,1 also known as Nabucco...

An equitable risk allocation between contracting parties plays a vital role in enhancing the performance of the project. This research presents a new quantitative risk allocation approach by integrating fuzzy logic and bargaining game theory. Owing to the imprecise and uncertain nature of players’ payoffs at different risk allocation strategies, fuzzy logic is implemented to determine the value...

Thanks to recent progress in satellite-based remote sensing technologies and object oriented image analysis, as well as to the availability of new very high-resolution sensors, it is now possible to design gas pipeline monitoring systems, as has been demonstrated by the co-funded European “PRESENSE Pipeline REmote SENsing for Safety and the Environment” project. In parallel, the European Space ...

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...

The analysis of next-generation sequencing data is computationally and statistically challenging because of the massive volume of data and imperfect data quality. We present GotCloud, a pipeline for efficiently detecting and genotyping high-quality variants from large-scale sequencing data. GotCloud automates sequence alignment, sample-level quality control, variant calling, filtering of likely...
