Traceability system formation in petroleum supply

Abstract

Nowadays so-called traceability systems that provide fixing of history, application, and location of a product during its life cycle are formed in many spheres. Large scale and territorial distribution of petroleum supply systems require some electronical sensor fields and the same for data receiving, processing, visualization, and situation identification. Example of this kind of systems is so called guaranteed petroleum product logistics automation control system that provides petroleum product preserve during tank truck deliverance from oil terminals to gas stations. In the sphere of petroleum supply also some technology development and successful in-Russia and abroad application experience tell us about possibility of express-determination of petroleum product quality characteristics by means of spectroscopy. This method provides increase of test speed of all of the samples possible or necessary and even take and investigate sample «in-flow» (physically in pipelines, logically by means of mobile laboratories, etc). Quality parameter magnitudes may be used by automation systems of various levels to increase control efficiency. The article deals with determination, analysis and synthesis of the traceability systems for quality control of petroleum product.
