Local pipelines
CPC v2.1 Code: 53251
About local pipelines
cpc code 53251 covers the industry of local pipelines, which play a crucial role in the transportation and distribution of various resources, including natural gas, oil, and water. These pipelines are essential infrastructure that connect production sites, refineries, and end-users, enabling the efficient and reliable delivery of essential commodities across local and regional areas. The local pipeline industry is a vital component of the broader energy and utilities sectors, contributing to the overall economic development and sustainability of communities.
Production process
The production of local pipelines involves a multi-step process that includes surveying, planning, and construction. Surveyors first identify the optimal route for the pipeline, taking into account factors such as terrain, population density, and environmental considerations. Engineers then design the pipeline system, specifying the materials, diameter, and depth of the pipes. The construction phase involves excavation, pipe laying, and the installation of valves, pumps, and other necessary equipment. Advanced techniques, such as horizontal directional drilling, are often employed to minimize disruption and environmental impact during the installation process.
Production inputs
The local pipeline industry requires a range of inputs, including steel or plastic pipes, valves, pumps, and other specialized equipment. Additionally, the industry relies on skilled labor, such as pipeline welders, construction workers, and maintenance technicians, to ensure the proper installation and ongoing operation of the pipelines. 42131 Mining and Oil and Gas Field Machinery Manufacturing and 33131 Mechanical Power Transmission Equipment Manufacturing are among the key suppliers of the necessary machinery and equipment for the local pipeline industry.
Production outputs
The primary output of the local pipeline industry is the transportation and distribution of various resources, such as natural gas, oil, and water, to end-users. These pipelines serve residential, commercial, and industrial consumers, enabling the delivery of essential commodities for heating, power generation, and industrial processes. The outputs of the local pipeline industry are consumed by a wide range of other industries, including 22111 Electric Power Generation, 22121 Natural Gas Distribution, and 22131 Water Supply and Irrigation Systems.
