The Offshore Energy Database Pipelines Data Set identifies all pipelines, trunk export lines, flowlines, risers and jumper flowlines employed in the offshore oil and gas industry. The data set comprises rigid steel flowlines, flexible flowlines, Duplex and Super-Duplex rigid Corrosion Resistant Alloy (CRA) flowlines. The pipelines data set identifies projects ranging from the intercontinental export lines through to the infield flowlines and export lines down to 1" diameter and 1 metre in length jumper flowlines connecting a templated well to its template.
Infield uses the pipelines data set for the referential integrity of the Offshore Energy Database as each end of the project is tied back to the start and end facility within the platforms, subsea completions, single point moorings and onshore terminals data sets.
Possibly the earliest offshore pipeline was Pluto (Pipe Line Under The Ocean), that was laid in the days after D-Day in 1944. By 1945 there were 11 pipelines serving the allies. It was not until 1947, however, that the first pipeline was laid to connect an out of sight of land offshore field development. There are over 45,000 pipelines on the Offshore Energy Database, some of which are not expected to be installed until 2025.
Types of pipeline systems identified on Infield are;
