Challenge	Transneft, Russia’s largest oil pipeline company, manages the world’s largest oil pipeline that extends over 48,000 miles from Siberia to the Baltics. The pipeline transports 420 million tons of oil a year through severe environments. The installation project involved installing over 400 pumping stations and 1000 holding tanks in 101 locations supplying 35 refineries. The challenge was to monitor and control this extensive pipeline system, which is responsible for transporting 99.5% of all the oil used in Russia. The system supplies 35 different refineries with their daily crude oil and provides both Europe and China with oil products. The pipeline system required a centralized dispatch and SCADA system to monitor the 400 pumping stations and 1,000 large oil tanks in 100 different tank farms. Read More
