设施选址问题的新领域——油气集输系统

A new application area of facility location problem-oil& gas gathering system

设施选址问题是运筹学的重要分支,理论研究发展迅速,在各个领域得到广泛应用,而在能源行业集输系统优化设计中未能得到足够重视。为此,针对能源行业的油气田集输系统,在论述设施选址问题分类方式的基础上,建立了集输系统优化设计问题的分类方法,从单站点位置、多站点位置以及站点连接关系等方面列举了该领域研究问题与设施选址问题的关联性和差异性,提出了集输管网整体求解问题,值得集输系统优化设计研究者和设施选址问题研究者的关注。

Facility location problem（FLP） is an important branch of operational research. The theoretical research of FLP is rapidly developing and is widely applied in various fields. However, FLP is failed to get enough attention in the optimization design of gathering system in the energy industry. Therefore, aiming at the oil and gas gathering system in the energy industry, the FLP classification is discussed, and accordingly the classification method for the optimization design of gathering system is developed. The relevance and difference between optimization design and FLP are demonstrated from the aspects of single-terminal location, multi-terminal location and terminal connections. The integral solution problem of gathering pipeline network is proposed, and it is worthy of attention for the researchers concerning the gathering system optimization and FLP.
