... to simulate other parts in an effective manner. Real-world pipeline operations encompass many “moving parts” that are often ignored or highly simplified in an OTS, but the inclusion of these parts can vastly improve the training experience. The integration of these many parts poses unique challenges...

... ABSTRACT Real time simulation tools for gas pipelines are already a reality in control central rooms, providing safer and more efficient operations, complementing SCADA functionalities for gas pipeline supervision and monitoring. This paper discusses the use of an integrated system to manage...

... ABSTRACT A better understanding of integrating applications requiring high-speed data exchange with the realtime control system is paramount to the successful deploying of these technologies. This paper will address the implications of data exchange between realtime and application systems...

... for further use within the simulation environment. Possibility of using industry standards for data exchange between GIS and the simulation software. INTRODUCTION The integration of GIS and other information systems has become a general trend for all network operators including gas distribution...

... tremendously with this process, but tends to be under used or not used at all. It is no longer sufficient to just use pipeline simulation technology to solve hydraulic problems, but rather integration and automation tools must be used to combine pipeline simulation with business analysis to solve business...

... on a global basis to re-think the way they operate and do business. The emphasis of this project is on the integration of the business and operational worlds to come into a more realistic perspective of how the physical world can impact the commercial world. The implementation of pipeline modeling systems...

... other sources, increases in accuracy, transient modeling, the simulation companies themselves, the integration of business planning with pipeline planning, and many other factors have all introduced new challenges, and thus new tools for the pipeline industry. Has the introduction of these factors...

..., providing operational information. For real-time models to be effective, they must be maintained. This can only be practically accomplished by the gas controllers. Gas controllers have traditionally been resistant to the integration of simulation models in the gas control environment. Their reasons...
