The World Onshore Pipelines Report 2008-12 considers the prospects for this huge global market and values the future markets through to 2012. As oil & gas production increases globally, so does the need for the transportation of products to market.
In this first edition of the World Onshore Pipelines Report, Douglas-Westwood presents a comprehensive view of the historic market from 2003-2007 and forecast period from 2008-2012. A detailed database of projects combined with an involved modeling and forecasting process result in a unique view of the market in length and value terms.
The report also reviews all aspects of onshore oil & gas pipelines from design, materials, techniques and components through to construction, operations and maintenance.
Pipeline technologies
The World Onshore Pipeline Report 2008-12 is geared to the needs of the senior executive and assumes no previous reader knowledge of the subject area. It describes pipeline design and how routes are selected, safety considerations, sizing, flow and pressure control and storage. The choice of pipeline materials is discussed and major pipeline components are reviewed from coatings and fittings to pumps and compressors. Construction techniques and associated issues are explained from stringing, welding and trenching to backfilling, cleaning, sizing, quality control and testing. Operations and maintenance content includes a review of control, integrity, corrosion protection and repairs.
The market
The Douglas-Westwood onshore pipelines market modelling process is based on actual project data. The Onshore Pipelines Report 2008-12 begins with identifying existing pipeline projects then examines the market drivers and prospects. Expenditure is broken down into the main spend areas of land & right of way, line pipe and fittings, pipeline construction, pump station & equipment and other (including delivery systems, communications, vehicles etc.)
