Abstract

 
 
 At present, the main pipelines represent the most profitable economic means in terms of transportation, supply and exploitation of energy resources. Since their laying is associated with a change in the natural environment, the ecological study of these corridors is a prerequisite. Geo-ecological study of the main pipelines is divided into three stages. This is the study of the pipeline route, to establish the existing background before the work begins. The second stage is the establishment of environmental impact during the laying of the pipeline. The third step is to monitor the environmental problems encountered during exploitation.The presented article gives a geo-ecological study of the corridors of gas pipelines in the section 1200, 1000 and 700 mm on the Kazbegi-Red Bridge (North-South) section. Carried out works represents the first stage of the study, and we have identified the physical and biological characteristics of the pipeline corridors. It was determined the purity of air, noise, chemical composition of soil, water and vegetation cover, as well as engineering and geological conditions of gas pipeline corridors. The results obtained do not exceed the values of the maximum permissible concentrations adopted in Georgia and in European countries, although Pl, Co, Ni and Cd show increased values directly near the gas pipeline.
 
 
Highlights
At present, the main pipelines represent the most profitable economic means in terms of transportation, supply and exploitation of energy resources
In the modern era it is well known that the main pipelines are necessary because they are the most economical means for the supply and operation of energy resources
In the course of the work, supervision is necessary to ensure that all requirements are met to determine the environmental impact
Summary
The main pipelines represent the most profitable economic means in terms of transportation, supply and exploitation of energy resources. The pipeline geo-ecology is one of the main and most important issues during such works. In the course of the work, supervision is necessary to ensure that all requirements are met to determine the environmental impact (for gas pipelines every 6 or 10 months and for oil stations after 3 and 5 months). The width of the pipeline safety corridor is determined by the type of fuel and the diameter of the pipeline.
