Current Status and Development Trends of Automation Technology for Long Distance Pipeline
With rapid development of long-distance pipelines in China and the interconnection of newly built pipelines,higher requirements are put forward for the safety and reliability of pipeline networks and the rapid and efficient allocation of resources.Given the development trend of pipeline intelligence,remote control,and unmanned operation,benchmarking analysis of pipeline automation technology at home and abroad is carried out,exploring new technologies for pipeline control center construction and pipeline operation management from the perspectives of SCADA system safety and reliability,big data technology,simulation optimization technology,and decision analysis system.Based on the practice of pipeline automation technology in China,suggestions are proposed to improve the level of pipeline operation and management,and the development trend of pipeline intelligence is forecasted.
