A mathematical model for planning transportation of multiple petroleum products in a multi-pipeline system [PDF]

open access: yesComputers and Chemical Engineering, 2010
A multiproduct Pipeline provides an economic way to transport large Volumes of refined petroleum products over long distances. In such a pipeline, different products are pumped back-to-back without any separation device between them. Sometimes, multiproduct pipelines can be connected together, resulting in a more complex system commonly named multi ...

Flow Assurance in Subsea Pipeline Design for Transportation of Petroleum Products

open access: yesOpen Journal of Civil Engineering, 2017
Transportation of petroleum products through pipeline presents considerable risks including wax formation and deposition as a result of heat loss of fluids, which is harmful to the flow due to the reduced inner diameter or totally blocked pipelines in extreme cases. The production interruption due to blocked pipelines can cause colossal financial loss.
