Submarine pipelines are used primarily to carry oil or gas, but transportation of water is also important. [3] A distinction is sometimes made between a flowline and a pipeline. [ 1 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The former is an intrafield pipeline, in the sense that it is used to connect subsea wellheads , manifolds and the platform within a particular ...
The US natural gas pipeline system is a complex system of pipelines that carries natural gas nationwide and for import and export for use by millions of people daily for their consumer and commercial needs. Across the country, there are more than 210 pipeline systems that total more than 305,000 miles of interstate and intrastate pipelines.
Recent developments in the liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry require relocation of conventional LNG processing units (or trains) into the sea to unlock remote, smaller gas fields that would not be economical to develop otherwise.Using these new types of FLNG facilities reduces capital expenses and environmental impacts.

In wet gas flows the gas velocity is higher due to a reduction in the pipe area caused by the presence of the liquid. Superficial liquid velocity is the liquid velocity if there were no gas present in the wet gas flow. Liquid load is the ratio of the liquid mass flow rate to the gas mass flow rate and is normally expressed as a percentage. GVF ...
The heating value depends on the source of gas that is used and the process that is used to liquefy the gas. The range of heating value can span ±10 to 15 percent. A typical value of the higher heating value of LNG is approximately 50 MJ/kg or 21,500 BTU/lb. [2] A typical value of the lower heating value of LNG is 45 MJ/kg or 19,350 BTU/lb.
Trunkline Pipeline is a natural gas pipeline system which brings gas from the Gulf coast of Texas and Louisiana through Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Kentucky to deliver gas in Illinois and Indiana. It connects to the Henry Hub, Egan Hub, and Perryville Hub. The total length of the system is 3,059 miles (4,923 km) and its capacity is 1. ...
Steel pipe is still used in many homes and businesses to convey natural gas or propane fuel, and is a popular choice in fire sprinkler systems due to its high heat resistance. In commercial buildings, steel pipe is used to convey heating or cooling water to heat exchangers, air handlers, variable air volume (VAV) devices, or other HVAC equipment.
Lake Charles LNG (former name: Trunkline LNG as import terminal) is a liquefied natural gas export terminal proposed in Lake Charles, Louisiana, United States.It is owned by the subsidiary of Energy Transfer Equity.
