Abstract

Utilizing ArcSchematics to Manage Chemically Treated Pipelines
Track: Pipeline and Gas Utilities
Authors: Christopher Nichols

ArcSchematics has allowed our organization to build diagrams utilizing a geometric network so that we may better visualize the effectiveness of our chemical treatment program on pipeline and other assets. The diagrams have allowed us to identify gaps in our chemical treatment program as well as monitor failures where current chemical treatment is ineffective. Well production data is being compared to monthly chemical treatment reports to further exploit the potential for increased production.
