Abstract: This paper studies the status quo of pipeline network programming in the facet of object, principle, content and method of oil and gas pipeline network programming. The authors consider that the programming method based on neural network has got a broad applied prospect, and the programming software should be deeply developed. Meanwhile, the available programming software should also be introduced from foreign countries to elevate the overall utilization rate of pipeline network to obtain more economic profits. The authors point out that the programming of oil and gas pipeline network should take the road of progress, integrity and sustenance.
