2 Files Included
Three GIS datasets are included in this product based on pipeline facility types. Additionally, some GIS formats do not allow the mixing of different entity types (i.e., points, lines, and areas) within a single file.
2.1 Route of Block 4 Oil Gathering Main Lines (Sudan)
The datasets contain a line with the exact location coordinates of 229 Turning Points along the pipeline route.
2.2 Main Stations of Block 4 Oil Gathering Main Lines (Sudan)
The datasets contain the exact location coordinates and names of the pipeline’s 4 oil field CPF and FPFs.
2.3 Block Valve Stations of Block 4 Oil Gathering Main Lines (Sudan)
The datasets contain the exact location coordinates and names of the pipeline’s 12 block valve stations (BV).
We provide three types of file formats: .kmz, .shp, and .xlsx. Our users can open .kmz and .shp files with various GIS software and convert them into other GIS formats. You can use Excel to open .xlsx files, which contain the coordinates of pipeline route turning points and stations.
