Management of the sulfur content in the gasoline transport logistics chain in a multi-product pipeline

Petroleum Science and Technology, 2018
AbstractThe authors’ objective is to manage sulfur content in gasoline over a multi-product pipeline using data derived from a correlation study. Sulfur content is analyzed by ultraviolet fluorescence or monochromatic wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry in three different sampling points by three laboratories.

Sequencing inputs to a multi-product pipeline

2001 European Control Conference (ECC), 2001
This paper addresses the problem of scheduling commodities in a multi-product pipeline. It is developed an auxiliary model for the operational decision-making process. It is considered a study upon a tank farm and a pipeline connecting a refinery to a harbour. The objective is the operating cost minimisation.

Scheduling multi-product tree-structure pipelines

Computers & Chemical Engineering, 2011
The problem discussed in this paper is short-term scheduling of distribution of petroleum derivatives from a single oil refinery to a number of depots through a tree-structure pipeline. Scheduling product batches in pipelines is a very complex task with many constraints to be considered. Batches of refined products and grades are pumped back-to-back in

Multi-Product Pipelines: Western Canadian Experience

Volume 1: Risk Assessment and Management; Emerging Issues and Innovative Projects; Operations and Maintenance; Corrosion and Integrity Management, 1998
The focus of this paper is to discuss the special design and operating considerations on receipt of materials at a terminal from a pipeline that is used to transport both crude oil and refined petroleum products. The paper includes a history of the closures of refineries in British Columbia and Alberta, Canada resulting in the need for multi-product ...

Offtaking Scheduling Software for Multi-Product Pipeline

Volume 1: Project Management; Design and Construction; Environmental Issues; GIS/Database Development; Innovative Projects and Emerging Issues; Operations and Maintenance; Pipelining in Northern Environments; Standards and Regulations, 2006
The main objective of this work is to exhibit the functions of a software program that prepares offtaking schedules for multi-product pipelines. The software program is currently being used on two multi-product pipelines in China. In the paper, the pipeline system modeled in the software involves several offtaking stations, pump stations, and one multi-

Research on Operation Optimization of Multi-Product Pipeline

2004 International Pipeline Conference, Volumes 1, 2, and 3, 2004
It is a difficult task for pipeline operators to operate a long-distance complicated multi-product pipeline optimally, safely and efficiently. The off-line optimization simulation software for multi-product pipeline can assist to solve the problem rapidly and efficiently.

A METHODOLOGY FOR SCHEDULING COMMODITIES IN A MULTI-PRODUCT PIPELINE

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2002
Abstract This paper addresses the problem of developing an optimisation model to aid the operational decision-making process in pipeline systems. The model is applied on a real world pipeline oil distribution scenario, which connects an inland refinery to a harbour, conveying multiple types of commodities.
