Oil and gas pipe networks play an important role in ensuring the downstream energy supply as they transport about 60% of oil and gas. To guarantee the safe and stable operation of pipelines during the scheduling horizon, it is necessary to make a reasonable schedule. During the past two decades, the pipeline scheduling problem has been widely studied in the world. This chapter conducts quantitative analysis and visual research on related literature. Through the review of the existing articles, the research framework of pipeline scheduling problem is constructed, and their research defects and trends are also analyzed. The aim of this chapter is to provide a comprehensive understanding of pipeline scheduling as well as some directions and inspiration for the future research.
