Abstract:
Because some international standards or codes, such as ANSI, API, ASME, and B. S. and so on, are adopted in the design for Korla—Shanshan oil pipeline, the oil transportation at high pressure and long station spacing, and tight-line pumping at ambiant temperature, as well as in differential height region has been realized. The automation of the whole line (start/shut down) has also been achieved by the computers located in control centre. Some indexes, for instance, the productivity of labour, energy consumption, corrosion control, selection of equipments, and telecommunication nearly override some foreign pipelines. Some characteristics in technology of the pipeline and its comparison to foreign pipelines are introduced.
