Pipeline Gathering System from a GIS Perspective
Track: Pipeline and Gas Utilities
Authors: Jameel Al-Khalaf

We have thousands of pipes branching from many wells toward GOSPs. Drawings & related info stored on legacy systems. Benefits perceived on using GIS to quickly locate PPL & to retrieve info about devices along the pipe.

I'll share our experiance on using GIS to store, manage & analyze PPL. We identified several steps: data preparation, field verification, data capturing & processing, attribution. I'll touch DB design using ESRI PPL Model & discuss major functions related to PPL and the benefits
