Transportation

Crude oil must be moved from the production site to refineries and from refineries to consumers. These movements are made using a number of different modes of transportation. Crude oil and REFINED products are transported across the water in barges and tankers. On land crude oil and products are moved using pipelines, trucks, and trains. In offshore under sea piplines, FPSO's and ships are used for transporation of oil & Gas.

NoDoC models the Oil & Gas transportation by means of pipelines (offshore & onshore), tankers and ships. Also FPSOs, Floating Production Storage and Offloading units are modeled in NoDoC in combination with tankers.

NoDoC considers followings for the design of cost estimation and simulation of oil & gas transortation TECHNOLOGIES.

Like other types of production platforms, FPSOs separate the oil, gas and water, and store the oil until tankers transport it to refineries. Gas from FPSOs is usually reinjected into the reservoir to produce later, or it is transported via pipeline to the shore for further processing and sales.

Tankers range in size from the small vessels used to transport REFINED products to huge crude carriers. Tanker sizes are expressed in terms of deadweight (dwt) or cargo tons. The smallest tankers are General Purpose which range from 10 to 25,000 tons.

These tankers are used to transport REFINED products. The Large Range and Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCC) are employed in international crude oil trade. The size of tanker that can be used in any trade (commercial voyage between a port of origin and destination) is dependent on the tanker's length and loaded depth and the size of the loading and unloading ports.

The larger ships are used because they reduce the cost to transport a barrel of crude oil. Crude oil and REFINED products are stored in tanks for shipment to other locations or processing into finished products. There are four basic types of tanks used to store petroleum products: (1) Floating Roof Tank used for crude oil, gasoline, and naphtha, (2) FIXED ROOF Tank used for diesel, kerosene, catalytic cracker feedstock, and residual fuel oil, (3) Bullet Tank used for normal butane, propane, and propylene, and (4) Spherical Tank used for isobutane and normal butane.

The amount of crude oil and refined products in storage is reported by Energy Information Administration.  While the actual volume is important, a better index is the number of days of supply available.  This number reflects the volume that can be supplied to run refineries (crude oil) or the volume of refined products that are available to meet demand.

pipelines are the most efficient method to transport crude oil and refined products. Pipelines are used to move crude oil from the wellhead to gathering and processing facilities and from there to refineries and tanker loading facilities. 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.

The pipeline may have many collection and delivery points along route. Booster pumps are located along the pipeline to maintain the pressure and keep the oil flowing. The delivery points may be refineries, where the oil is processed into products, or shipping terminals, where the oil is loaded onto tankers.

A pipeline may handle several types of crude oil. The pipeline will schedule its operation to ensure that the right crude oil is sent to the correct destination. The pipeline operator sets the date and place when and where the oil is received and the when the oil will arrive at its destination. Crude oil may also move over more than one pipeline system as it journeys from the oil field to the refinery or shipping port. Storage is located along the pipeline to ensure smooth CONTINUOUS pipeline operation.

After crude oil is converted into REFINED products such as gasoline, pipelines are used to transport the products toterminals for movement to gasoline stations. In addition to gasoline, products pipelines are used to ship diesel fuel, home heating fuel, kerosene, and jet fuel. Because product pipelines are used to move many different products, the different types of products are shipped in batches.

Batching is used to move two or more different liquids through the same pipeline. The liquid are transported in a series of batches. The adjoining batches mix where they come into contact. This mixed stream may be sent to refinery for re-refining, sold as a lower valued product such as a mixture of premium unleaded gasoline with regular unleaded gasoline, or sold as mixture. Many product pipelines have standard product specifications. This allows one company to ship gasoline over the line and get not be concerned whether he receives gasoline from that same batch. Its all the same quality. Individual additive packages are added at the distribution terminals.
