Abstract: Makes analysis on economic operation of Gela oil pipeline. Major effective factors are: ① low throughput in operation; ② pump set are not in best efficient area; ③ quantity control, regulating valve consumes much energy due to too much regulation and throttle loses too much; ④ floating tank "filling evaporation losses"; ⑤ short of equipment and management. Puts forward corresponding countermeasures in light of these problems: ① increasing oil product's throughput; ②pump set in optimum operation; ③ adopting tight-line transporting process under the condition of good safety protection and with automatic regulating equipment; ④ reasonably controls operation coefficient, renewal of equipment and raises pipeline and automatic degree.
