نقل خطوط الأنابيب هو وضع نقل لمسافات طويلة للمواد السائلة والغاز باستخدام خط الأنابيب كوسيلة للنقل. إنه طريقة نقل خاصة تنقل البترول, الفحم والمنتجات الكيميائية من مكان المنشأ إلى السوق, وهو مكون خاص لنقل الجذع في شبكة النقل الموحدة.
أحيانا, يمكن للأنابيب الهوائية القيام بعمل مماثل, ويستخدم الغاز المضغوط لنقل الخزانات الصلبة المملوءة بالسلع. نقل خطوط الأنابيب للمنتجات البترولية أغلى من النقل المائي, لكنها لا تزال أرخص من نقل السكك الحديدية. Most pipelines are used by their owners to transport their own products.
Pipeline transportation is not only large-scale, safe, reliable, stable, continuous, fast, economical, less investment, less land occupation and low cost, but also can realize automatic control. Pipeline transportation can save the transit trouble of waterway or land transportation, shorten the transportation cycle, reduce the transportation cost and improve the transportation efficiency.
في الوقت الحالي, the development trend of pipeline transportation is: the diameter of pipeline is constantly increasing, and the transportation capacity is greatly improved; The pipeline transportation distance increases rapidly; Material transportation has gradually expanded from fluid such as oil, natural gas and chemical products to non-fluid such as coal and ore.
From the advantage point of view, pipeline transportation has its unique advantages in oil and gas transportation. أولاً, its traffic is smooth and uninterrupted. Modern production, continuous production in oil fields, continuous pipeline transportation, and continuous production of finished products in oil refining and chemical industry meet the needs of the national economy; The second is to realize safe transportation. For oil and gas, the transportation of cars and trains is very dangerous, while the pipeline is sealed underground, so it is extremely safe; Third, the quality is guaranteed, the pipeline is sealed, the oil is not volatile, and the quality is not affected; Fourth, economy, low pipeline transportation loss, low freight, less land occupation and less pollution.
