A free, schema-identical preview of XpertSystems.ai's enterprise pipeline flow dataset for hydraulic modeling, leak detection, flow assurance, SCADA telemetry analytics, pump/compressor optimization, and pipeline reliability ML. The sample covers 55 pipelines with 369 segments across 10 pipeline types, 10 fluid families, 10 global regions, and 7 terrain types, with 150,137 rows linked across 12 tables spanning 7 days of 180-minute time- series.

Honest disclosure of sample-scale limitations

This is a sample product calibrated for pipeline ML research, not for live operational decisions. Several notes:

  1. Flow regime is ~100% turbulent because transmission pipeline Reynolds numbers naturally exceed 4000 (sample mean Re ≈ 1.1M). Laminar regime is essentially absent at sample scale — only pipelines with very viscous fluids (heavy crude) at very low flow rates would produce laminar flow. For laminar-regime ML, filter to primary_fluid == 'heavy_crude' AND flow_bpd < 5000 or wait for the full product which adds explicit low-flow scenarios.

  2. Pump cavitation risk is ~0 because the generator's formula (rpm - 2700)/12 + N(0, 5) clips at 0 for typical 1750 rpm operation. Real cavitation risk requires NPSH-margin physics (OIL-021 implements this correctly). For pump cavitation ML, use OIL-021 instead; OIL-024 cavitation is a placeholder.

  3. Integrity state is 100% 'normal' at 7-day sample horizon because leak_probability > 40 threshold (for 'watch' classification) requires longer-horizon corrosion accumulation. The full product (30-day prod mode) and full-scale simulations show meaningful 'watch' and 'high_risk' populations. For integrity-state classification ML, use the full product or augment with external corrosion-progression simulations.

  4. Transient events are sparse (~20 events per 55 pipelines at sample scale). For 15-class event-type classification ML, use the full product (12000+ pipelines for 30 days) or filter to pipeline-day aggregated event flags rather than per-timestep events.

  5. Leak events are very rare (~3 leak entries across 55 pipelines). Leak ML requires the full product. For leak detection ML at sample scale, use leak_probability_score regression rather than the binary leak flag.

  6. Sensor drift flag rate is ~0.04% because the generator only sets drift_flag = True when event_type == 'sensor_drift', which is one of 15 event types at 0.6% rare event rate. For sensor drift ML, use full product or rely on signal-quality quality_flag instead.

  7. Flow ↔ pressure drop correlation is weak (r ≈ +0.06) because the relationship is dominated by between-segment variance in diameter, length, and fluid type rather than within-segment flow-pressure scaling. For Darcy-Weisbach ML, normalize pressure drop per-segment (dp/L or use friction factor) before fitting. Within a single segment, the relationship is strong (r > 0.85 typically).

  8. Flow assurance critical rate is ~38% — higher than realistic field operation (5-15% typical). The generator's wax_risk formula (118-temp) × 1.8 triggers easily at ambient temperatures; real field operation includes insulation and heat-tracing that reduces wax onset. For realistic flow assurance ML, filter critical classifications by insulation type (insulation_type in ['high', 'subsea_wet_insulated'] for realistic thermal-protected operation).

OIL-018 Upstream Wellbore-to-separator multiphase flow (Beggs-Brill regime classification)

OIL-024 vs OIL-015: OIL-015 specializes in flow-assurance-only threshold-gated wax/hydrate/asphaltene deposition. OIL-024 is the comprehensive midstream pipeline operations dataset — full Swamee-Jain hydraulics + Darcy-Weisbach pressure drop + thermal profiles + SCADA telemetry + leak detection + 15-class transient event taxonomy + 10-fluid- type PVT-aware physics. Use OIL-015 for flow-assurance ML specifically, OIL-024 for general pipeline operations / SCADA / hydraulic ML.

OIL-024 vs OIL-018: OIL-018 simulates wellbore-to-separator multiphase flow with Beggs-Brill regime classification (upstream). OIL-024 simulates midstream transmission pipelines with single-phase or multiphase flow assurance (downstream of separator). Use OIL-018 for upstream production multiphase ML, OIL-024 for midstream transmission pipeline ML.
