Posted on: Tuesday, 6 June 2006, 09:01 CDT
Energy Solutions International, the Houston-based leading global supplier of oil and gas pipeline management software, today announced that Valero L.P. has selected PipelineStudio(R) to standardize its offline simulation system. Valero L.P. evaluated and purchased PipelineStudio after its acquisition of the Kaneb pipeline, which currently relies on the PipelineStudio product.
"Once we acquired the Kaneb pipeline system, we wanted to begin the process of standardization for our offline hydraulic modeling," said Keith Taylor, energy manager of Valero L.P. "Our evaluation of PipelineStudio was very positive. The product was robust in that sophisticated simulations could be done. We look forward to a continued relationship with Energy Solutions."
PipelineStudio is a leading simulation and design product for pipeline systems that is used extensively by pipeline and engineering companies. Valero L.P. has over 9,000 miles of pipeline, 89 terminal facilities and four crude oil storage facilities. For more information on PipelineStudio, visit www.energy-solutions.com/pipelinestudio.htm.
"We believe that Valero L.P. will see a great benefit to standardizing on PipelineStudio as its offline pipeline system," said Al Jacob, Energy Solutions chief executive officer. "Valero has stringent technical requirements and went through a very thorough process to choose PipelineStudio. This is a great validation of the work we've put into the product. It's an exciting time for PipelineStudio. We just released version 2.8 and have another release that will add many new features to the liquids offering scheduled before the end of the year."
