Because of kinds of regulating commands, Oil and gas pipelines in operation can occasionally generate a series of conditions consisting of stopping transportation, starting transportation, distribution, increment, internal pump regulation of single…

With the development of science and technology, the Internet of things technology has been gradually applied to various fields, it has become one of hot spot after the computer, the Internet and mobile communication technology. This paper focuses on…

Transportation of natural gas through high pressure large diameter offshore pipelines is modeled by numerically solving the governing equations for one-dimensional compressible pipe flow using an implicit finite difference method. The pipelines…

The transportation of huge quantities of Hydrogen to the consumption points is a herculean task and can only be economically viable through the pipeline route. The creation of a dedicated pipeline infrastructure for Hydrogen comes with huge…

Infrastructure systems, including transportation, telecommunications, water supply, and electric power networks, are faced with growing number of disruptions such as natural disasters, malevolent attacks, human-made accidents, and common failures,…

Abstract Increasing urbanization and industrialization have led to a phenomenal growth in transportation demand worldwide, coupled with a concentration of vehicles in metropolitan cities. With regard to increasingly stringent emission legislation…

About 85% of petroleum oil need of India is being met through imports. Indian economy is growing steadily resulting in rapid increase of vehicular population and demand for transportation fuels. Indian Government has already mandated blending of…

Crew must be transported to offshore platforms to regulate the production of oil and gas. Helicopter is the preferred means of transportation, which incurs a high cost on oil and gas companies. So, flight schedule should be planned in a way that…

We consider the problem of empty tank cars relocation in a railway petroleum transportation. Biggest petroleum carrier in Kazakhstan railway network provides transportation service to the customers. The majority of its expenses consist of an empty…

One of the key characteristics of small modular reactors (SMRs), as their name emphasised, is the modularization. Modularization implies factory production, which in turn implies transportation of large, heavy, complex and fragile modules from the…
