Pipeline Segment
While the pipeline-element component breaks a pipeline into its parts, pipeline-segment counts the elbows, tees, and straight lengths of the pipeline broken down by diameter or specification change (pipeline material code and/or insulation thickness).
Components counted by pipeline-segment report component. A) 90° and 45° elbows; B) 45° laterals; and C) 60° laterals.
