Every day , c rude o i l pipe l ines transport mi l l ions o f barre l s

B e tween 19 7 9 and 19 87 , tota l r e f inery c rude o i l runs dropped
from 14 . 6 mi l l ion barre l s per day ( MMB / D ) to 12 . 9 MMB /D .

Dur ing the s ame period , the Trans -Al a s k a P i p e l i ne S y s t em

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
In .f.atl..l you are asked to furnish information about your company's overall pipeline system. Re­
quested on these pages are:
•
Updates of PAD District system maps (trunk line systems) and detailed area maps supplied in
this mailing.
•
Update status of pipeline projects projected for completion in the 1 979 NPC Pipeline Capacity
report. The list of projects is included in the mailing.
•
A general description of pipeline projects completed during the period from January 1 , 1979
to December 3 1, 1 987, including new pipeline construction, conversions, sales, or abandon­
ments that were not previously identified in the 1 979 NPC report.
•
A general description of any planned new pipeline systems and plans for extension and
expansion, conversion or abandonment of existing systems.
Please include all of your company's pipelines, whether common carrier or proprietary. If your
company owns lines (common carrier or proprietary) in undivided interest, do not report these lines
unless you are the operator. Joint interests, stock companies or partnerships should also be reported
by the operator.
Because pipeline companies may own numerous separate systems which are not interdependent,
in Part II you are asked to divide your various systems into suitable sections. Such sections may be
from the origin to termination point or may be further divided by pipeline connection points to other
pipelines, refineries or delivery points. Examples of correct procedures for breaking out sections are
included. Part II concerns each of these sections individually. Please number the pages relating to each
pipeline section consecutively.
If a question does not apply to the pipeline section being reported, please enter "NA" where appro­
priate.
If additional blank questionnaires are required, they may be obtained from the National Petroleum
Council office, or they may be copied from these originals. Many of the questions, and information

FUTURE PIPELINE PLANS
Provide a general description of any planned new pipeline systems or sections thereof and plans for
extension and expansion of existing systems by location, pipe size, added capacity, and status. Such
expansions should be firm (announced) proposals with anticipated start-of -construction and comple­
tion schedules, but do not necessarily need to be budgeted to be included. A brief narrative describing
expected impediments to expansion plans /proposals (governmental, environmental, other) will be
useful. Also, include a description of any planned pipeline conversions, flow reversals, capacity cut
backs or pipeline phase outs. If you have more than two projects, please reproduce copies of this page
to describe the others.

Pipeline Schematic
Prepare a schematic, using the attached example on page 1 7, for each of your pipeline systems
including crude oil, products, or LPG service. Include location of the beginning and end of the system,
major origin points, other pipeline connections, refinery receipt or delivery points and pipeline
diameter for each section of the system. For ease of identification, please assign a unique three position
numeric code to each of the points (nodes) in the pipeline as shown in the example on page 1 7. Be sure
the schematic includes the name of the node and its location as shown in the example.
Indicate on the schematic the longitude and latitude (measured as degrees and minutes to the nearest
tenth of a minute) of each of the nodes you have identified. Use the attached example for the preferred
way to show point location for each node. Longitude and latitude information can be easily obtained
from USGS survey sheets. We suggest you check with your engineering department.
Pipeline Section Data
For each pipeline section between nodes identified on the pipeline schematic, provide the information
requested on the attached form using the instructions that follow. Using the example on page 1 7, there
would be seven (7) separate section data forms provided. These would include two pipeline sections
from node 100 to 1 10, and one each from 1 1 0 to 120, 1 20 to 125, 1 20 to 1 30, 1 30 to 1 35, and 1 30 to 140.
When two or more pipeline sections exist between two nodes, uniquely identify each by adding an A,
B, etc., to the three position identifier. In the example on page 1 7 the two lines between nodes 1 00 and
1 1 0 would be identified as 1 00A to 1 10A and 1 00B to 1 1 0B. Photocopy as many copies of the form as
you need.

DE SCRIPT ION OF THE PR INC IPAL U . S .
INLAND WATERWAYS
The following is an a lphabet ic l i s t of 23 inland waterways of the
United States including river mileages , controlling depths , name or number
of each lock fac i l ity , and the s ize of lock chamber . The phys ical s ize o f
each lock may not necess ar i ly indicate the maximum s ize o f the tows us ing
each waterway . For example , some of the locks are long enough to handle a
1 , 190 foot tow while others will require double or multiple lock ing . Some
waterways have other restraints , such as vertical bridge c learances ,
approach bends , and low water conditions , which dictate the s ize o f the
tow .
Flooding affects the operation of the locks in d i fferent ways
depending upon the des ign of each fac i lity . For example , most of the dams
on the upper Miss i s s ippi River are the movable weir type that can be
lowered during high water to allow the vessels to pass over the dam
without lock ing ; however , some of the newer locks on the upper M i s s i s s ippi
and ·the newer dams on the Ohio River are f ixed structures and locking
condit ions prevai l full t ime , with no bypass provi s ions , unt i l the water
reaches a maximum operational level and lock ing procedures cease due to
high water .
