“…The variation in the demand volume of markets attached to the pipeline network is inevitable and perquisite to the PNC design and operations optimization [3], [10], [23], [37], [57]. This optimization is dealt with in multi-horizon optimization methodology in which Technical Environmental Commercial (TEC) factors will be inconstant such as dynamic pump efficiency factor, the inflation rate in operations and construction cost, and rate of change in carbon emission factors [62].…”

This work presents a novel framework for the design optimization of Pipeline Network Configuration which takes into account the intricate relationships among decision variables and the essential technical, commercial, and environmental design parameters. To illustrate the Single Horizon Optimization methodology's efficacy and sensitivity analysis of different objective functions, a case study of the China Multi-product Pipeline is utilized. It is found that each performance parameter excels in its respective objective function, however, a novel Tariff & Carbon-Emissions Multi-Objective Function stands out by delivering a well-balanced outcome, reducing overall cost, tariff, and carbon emissions by -1.98%, -1.76%, and -3.48%, respectively. The article also delves into various Multi-Horizon Optimization (MHO) methodologies aligning with practical industry practices, and the case study of the Central India Pipeline is used. The Pumping-Station MHO shows a potential cost savings of 1.21 Billion INR to the pipeline owner, along with a reduction of tariffs by 139 INR/MT across the analysis period. The Pipeline-Laying MHO analysis reveals that the initial phasing for the PNC design shall be up to the year when demand reaches 80% of the total demand. The proposed framework empowers designers with better decision-making capabilities for economically viable and environmentally sustainable pipeline network design.

“…With the rapid development of the natural gas industry, underground gas storage, as a means of safe gas supply, peak regulation, and one of the main ways of natural gas storage, rises rapidly in the world. − The natural gas from the source should be purified first and then compressed before it can be stored. , Figure shows the flowchart of the gas injection process. When the compressor is working, lubricating oil is injected into the cylinder for lubrication and sealing, which will cause the discharged gas to contain some lubricating oil.…”

Oil-gas separators are significant in the safe and reliable operation of the natural gas storage system. The separation efficiency of the conventional primary separation part of the oil-gas separator was not high enough, causing the insufficient performance of the whole separator. Three modification schemes were proposed to optimize the primary separation part of the oil-gas separator, including adding a curved baffle at the entrance, forming a centrifugal separation through the tangential inlet, and forming a cyclone structure by adding an inner cylinder. The separation performance was obtained through the Eulerian–Lagrangian approach numerically. For each scheme, a variety of parameter combinations were designed by the orthogonal array and the structure with the highest separation efficiency was reasonably selected. The separation efficiency of the centrifugal structure was higher than that of the collision structure on the whole. To evaluate the feasibility of the practical application, the three structural schemes were compared coupled with the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) based on the separation efficiency, the pressure loss, the uniformity of filter inlet velocity, and the modification cost. The results showed that the scheme of adding a curved baffle with reasonable structural parameters at the entrance had better comprehensive performance, which could be used as the optimal scheme in improving the oil-gas separator applied in natural gas storage.
