Description
This dataset represents the provision of one ton-kilometer of transportation service by an oil pipeline over a distance of one kilometer. The transportation dataset covers the entire transportation life cycle, including pipeline operation, energy consumption for driving the pipeline, and operational emissions. The pipeline operates using electricity, diesel, and natural gas. The comprehensive energy consumption for pipeline operation is based on relevant standards and literature regarding energy consumption in long-distance crude oil pipeline systems. The pipeline utilization data is reasonably extrapolated from information related to European pipeline usage.
Activity Description
