Pipeline By M. Mohitpour

• This comprehensive book offers straightforward, practical techniques for pipeline design and construction, making it an ideal professional reference, training tool, or text for specialized college courses. The authors present the various elements that make up a single-phase liquid and gas pipeline system, including how to design, construct, commission, and assess pipelines and related facilities. They discuss gas and liquid transmission, compression, pumps, protection, and integrity, procurement services, and management of pipeline projects. More complex specialty fluids are also covered, including CO2, H2, slurry and multi-products. Where possible, the authors provide mathematical models and detailed case studies, along with application-oriented examples with sketches and descriptions of systems. References and bibliographical guides are provided for additional information and literature. Contents include: Metric Conversion Table * Elements of Pipeline Design * Pipeline Route Selection, Survey, and Geotechnical Guidelines * Natural Gas Transmission * Gas Compression and Coolers * Liquid Flow and Pumps * Transient * Flow in Liquid and Gas Pipelines * Pipeline Mechanical Design * Materials Selection and Quality Management * Pipeline Construction * Pipeline Integrity * Specialty Fluid Transmission * Glossary of Terms. Appendices: Route Selection for Project Successes: Addressing "Feeling/Perception" Issues * Impact of Different Gas and Pipeline Parameters on the Flow Efficiency of the Pipeline * Temperature Computations in Fluid Transmission Pipelines * Sample Calculations.

• This book will provide a wealth of technical information for those concerned with, or responsible for, the safety and integrity of pipeline systems. It addresses the full life cycle of a pipeline by considering the entire spectrum of pipeline integrity management, ranging from data gathering (tools and methods), assessment techniques (condition and risks verification), to repairs and emergency response, including incident management.

• A comprehensive professional reference book and training tool covering hydrocarbon liquid pipeline systems, including pipeline and appurtenances design, hydraulics design, pumping, and storage/terminal facilities designs, as well as operation and maintenance. Both high and low vapor pressure and batching systems are covered.
• This book provides aspects of steady state and dynamic hydraulics, mechanical design and operational issues related to pipelines transporting liquid hydrocarbons and petroleum products. In addition, liquid properties important to the design of long distance pipelines requiring multiple pump stations and storage facilities are provided.
