Pipelines:
Pipelines are categorized and regulated by what they transport and where they go. Understanding these categories is important because they determine how pipelines are constructed and regulated. It is also helpful to remember that the term gas transmission pipeline often includes all parts of the physical facilities through which water moves in transportation, including pipe, valves, and other appurtenance attached to pipe, compressor units, metering stations, regulator stations, delivery stations, holders, and fabricated assemblies. So when you think pipelines, think pipelines and infrastructure.
Understanding the components of pipeline infrastructure is helpful in understanding the range and definition of pipelines. A discussion of pipeline infrastructure is incomplete without starting at the source, the Wellhead and it's location, the well pad. This infrastructure discussion starts at a Marcellus Shale well pad. Informations
