Monitoring and identification of operation modes of energy carrier pipeline transportation

Abstract

The authors analyzed the examples of using operation mode monitoring systems for energy carrier pipeline transportation. It is noted that the effectiveness of this class of systems depends on the information and software support. Harnessing the power of satellites equipped with a standard telemetry and optical equipment allows you to monitor and control the operation modes of energy carrier pipeline transportation on a fundamentally new level. The article considers modern operation modes of pipelines transporting energy carriers. It describes operational complications that have a negative impact on the hydraulic pipeline operation modes. Main tendencies and directions of improving the efficiency of energy carrier pipeline transportation are presented. It is noted that at the present stage of science and technology development in order to improve the effectiveness of monitoring it is necessary to use advanced mathematical models to implement continuous monitoring, control and management of the pumping process at different modes of pipeline operation within a single approach.
