Pressure Control in Gas Oil Pipeline: A Supervisory Model Predictive Control Approach

one of the important ways of oil transmission and its by-products is to use transmission lines. The target transmission pipeline is the transmission line of diesel from Tabriz refinery to Urmia station. Information overview is available from this pipeline; therefore, by study and simulation of this pipeline the control operation is done on the process. One of the options that is available to simulate the oil transformation process is using Aspen HYSYS process simulator. Model-based predictive controller is located for monitoring the PID classic controller, which has improved the optimal point tracking and also optimize the energy consumption in compressors, and it is an important point in removing the effect of disturbances on the line. The simulation results show the effectiveness of proposed method in different operating conditions.
