Pipeline Transportation
Oil and gas deposits in Russia are located much further away from consumers than in any other country producing hydrocarbons in the world. Therefore, the successful operation of the oil and gas industry largely depends on the efficiency of pipeline systems, reduction in oil and gas transporting expenditure. The length of main gas and oil pipelines reaches up to 5-6 thousand kilometers; so the indispensable condition is to reduce the energy intensity of oil and gas transport, and specifically through the use of energy-saving technologies.
Product pipelines ship gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel fuel from the refinery to local distribution facilities. Crude oil is collected from field gathering systems consisting of pipelines that move oil from the wellhead to storage tanks and treatment facilities where the oil is measured and tested.From the gathering system the crude oil is sent to a pump station where the oil delivered to the pipeline. Booster pumps are located along the pipeline to maintain the pressure and keep the oil flowing. Pipelines require significantly less energy to operate than operating trucks or rail and have a much lower carbon footprint. More importantly, pipeline has proved to result in fewer fatalities, injuries, and environmental damage than other options.
Today, the priority task of Bunkerpasifik is to further reduce the specific accident rate. The basis for the development of anti-corrosion measures included in the overall strategy is monitoring (corrosion activity of pumped media, corrosion rates) and the results of industrial safety expertise of the studied pipeline fleet. Based on these data, an assessment of options for the further operation of pipeline systems is made. Specialists of the company will continue to work in the future aimed at improving the reliability of the fleet of pipelines of LLC " Bunkerpasifik " and reducing operating costs.
