Understanding and thinking on the development of China's intelligent pipeline

Abstract

Intelligent pipeline is a comprehensive management system covering the full life cycle of long-distance oil and gas pipelines. It is also the continuation and development of SCADA system, electronic pipeline, digital pipeline and smart pipeline in the era of Internet of Things, cloud computing and artificial intelligence. This paper analyzed the connotation and extension of intelligent pipeline in oil and gas pipeline industry, combed the historical development of intelligent pipeline technology, and revealed the essence and application status of Digital Twin technology. On that basis, it is suggested that the principles of demand-driven, problem-oriented, priorities-highlighted, unique characteristics, open and integration, data sharing, rolling development and continuous improvement should be adhered to in the construction process of China's intelligent pipeline, so as to provide reference for the healthy and sustainable development of China's intelligent pipeline.
