Abstract: Based on a mathematical model for hot oil pipeline's shutdown and restart process, a calculation soft- ware SARP simulating hot oil pipeline's shutdown and restart process has been successfully developed, which solves a technical problem for forecasting hot oil pipeline's shutdown and restart process. The software has friendly user's interface, is easy to use and facilitated for data entering, it is capable of simulating calculations for normal running hot oil pipeline, shutdown process and restart process as well as soil's temperature field. By comparison with on-site data repeatedly, it is proved that the SARP software is able to give reliable calculation results and can be used to instruct oil transportation production.
