Pipeline

Supporting gas and hazardous liquid transportation with GIS

Pipeline operators face increasing regulatory and business challenges. ArcGIS helps them efficiently and effectively perform essential tasks and workflows needed to succeed in this changing environment using GIS and mapping technology. This ensures that pipeline operators have the spatial capabilities needed to meet today's business objectives and those ahead.

  • Natural gas transmission

    Natural gas is transported from processing to distribution. Pipeline operators use maps and analytics to access accurate, consistent, and secure pipeline data. Make it easier to find, share, and analyze information with ArcGIS.

  • Crude and refined products transmission

    Crude oil is transported to refining centers, distribution terminals, and then the refined product is sold. With location-based information, pipeline operators gain new insights that improve analysis and decision-making throughout the hazardous liquids lifecycle.

  • Gathering pipelines

    Crude oil or natural gas is brought from multiple wells to a processing plant, refinery, or transmission pipeline. Standardize and improve daily processes such as asset inspections, operational surveillance, and surveys. Share the data anywhere using GIS and mapping.

  • Vertically integrated gas utilities

    Gas utilities operating an integrated pipe network own multiple levels of supply chain, including both transmission and distribution sub-networks. Integrating location intelligence with GIS drives intelligent operations and delivers a safer and more sustainable business.

  • Gas Utilities

    Gas utilities operate distribution pipe networks. In many cases, they also operate a transmission pipe network that integrates with the distribution one. Whether your gas utility is distribution only or vertically integrated, GIS supports all your functional areas and roles.

  • Petroleum

    The petroleum industry workers explore for and extract oil and gas to refine it into many different products. They then transport refined products to terminals for distribution to end-customers. Location data and analytics underpin all these processes.
