Abstract: Fluid pipelines operating in California transport gasoline, fuel oil, jet fuel, crude, other hydrocarbons, and water, all vital to the well being of California's economy. These pipelines are also significant users of energy. In 2010, the transportation of crude oil and refined petroleum products consumed approximately 715 gigawatt-hours of electricity and over 13 million therms of natural gas. In addition to significant baseline energy consumption, more energy is often required by pipelines to respond to schedule requirements.
