Crude oil and refined product pipeline in the oil & gas industry

Separate recording of flow systems

Large diameter pipelines offer the most efficient way to transport oil products to and from a refinery. Crude oil can come directly from the production location, or from the tank farm where it arrived by ship. Pipelines are also used to transport the resulting refined products to another tank farm, which is typically close to the refinery, but could be up to several hundreds of kilometers away.
