In this paper, we study the processes of mixing when using the technology of transportation of light oil products-sequential pumping by direct contact. Modeling of mixing processes is carried out taking into account the influence of parametric and thermodynamic factors. For numerical modeling, a software package was developed that allows not only modeling and calculating the parameters of the oil pipeline operation in real time with subsequent graphical visualization, but also comparing them with real data processed by operators at production facilities.
