Description
The dataset describes the construction of 1 meter of oil pipeline, which plays a crucial role in the extraction, transportation, and utilization of oil. The life cycle inventory is compiled from data obtained from multiple sources, with certain data corrected and updated based on industry-reported averages. The dataset includes building materials, energy consumption, laying operations, and pipeline disposal, but excludes energy use, raw materials, and operational emissions associated with the disposal phase. Infrastructure such as manufacturing of production equipment and construction of facilities is not included within the system boundary of the dataset.
Activity Description
This is a fixed infrastructure; the dataset describes the construction of long-distance crude oil pipelines, including construction materials, energy consumption, laying processes, and pipeline decommissioning, but excludes energy use, raw materials, and operational emissions during the decommissioning process.
Process Description
