The pipeline system discussed is a seawater pipeline used for secondary oil recovery. The system consists of an intake station, filters to process the water for injection, and pumps to ship it to an intermediate pumping station, located approximately halfway between the water treatment plant and the water injection points. Control concepts such as override control, selective outback, gradient control, transient control, and load sharing are discussed, as well as dynamic simulation, and hardware components.
