Energy Consumption Analysis and Assessment for Northeastern Crude Oil Pipeline Network in China

In recent years, the rising trend of energy consumption of northeastern crude oil pipeline network in China is receiving considerable attention. Through collecting fundamental information about the main energy-consumption equipments and analyzing operating reports of pipelines, the authors find three bottlenecks which seriously influence the energy-consumption level for crude oil pipelines. Then a new energy consumption analysis method for crude oil pipelines is presented, which includes safety assessment of transportation oil temperature, optimization of process operation schemes and energy-consumption equipments transformation. Based on the above energy consumption analysis method for oil pipelines, the authors formulate the optimal steady operation schemes for the main pipelines in northeastern crude oil pipeline network and assess their energy-consumption grade.
