Risk of Third Party's Damage and Control Measures for West-to-East Gas Transmission Pipeline

Statistics data display that third partys damage has become a major failure factor of pipeline (optical cable). Making cause analysis and taking effective prevention measures are of great significance to ensure safety operation of pipeline and optical cable. Research shows that third partys damage is characterized by complicated origins, with good random, and is difficult to forecast and prevent, which rests with frequent economic activities developed along pipelines, communication is obstructed between pipeline management side and residents living around pipelines and is lack of necessary information.
