Pipeline Stationing - Example

00+00 200+0050+00 100+00 150+00

Stationing is an “address” along the pipeline. Here is a pipeline

that is 20,000 ft. in length with stations shown each 5,000 ft.

Pipeline Stationing - Example

Here’s the same pipeline after a reroute that added a new section

of pipe 2,000 ft. longer than the original section of pipe that was

abandoned or reclaimed. “Station equations” are used to equate

stationing between two adjacent surveys. The upstream tie-in for

the reroute is at 50+00. The downstream tie-in for the reroute is

170+00 (back) and 150+00 (ahead).

Stationing

• Manage station equations as events

- Coordinate locations, with route and measure

- Edit from Pipeline Characteristic Editor

- Support stationing without a stationing network

• 3 ways to input station measures …

- Offsetting on stationing event layer

- Providing temporary starting station location

- Selecting starting station to offset from

… if station location ambiguous due to equations,

user prompted for which map location is desired.

Engineering Stationing

is Supported, but

is not Required.
