Abstract

This paper addresses the Line Pack Management of the "GZ1 Hassi R'mell-Arzew" gas pipeline. For a gas pipeline system, the decision-making on the gas line pack management scenarios usually involves a delicate balance between minimization of the fuel consumption in the compression stations and maximizing gas line pack. In order to select an acceptable Line Pack Management of Gas Pipeline scenario from these two angles for "GZ1 Hassi R'mell- Arzew" gas pipeline, the idea of multi-objective decision-making has been introduced. The first step in developing this approach is the derivation of a numerical method to analyze the flow through the pipeline under transient isothermal conditions. In this paper, the solver NSGA-II of the modeFRONTIER, coupled with a matlab program was used for solving the multi-objective problem.

Highlights

  • This work is concerned with the minimization of energy cost for gas pipeline under transient conditions

  • Single centrifugal compressor unit The primal quantities related to a centrifugal compressor unit are inlet volumetric flow rate Q, speed S, adiabatic head H, and adiabatic efficiency

  • The key consideration in pipeline operations is line pack, which is defined as the volume of natural gas between the compressor discharge pressure and the customer end-point delivery pressure
