As climate issues gradually attract public attention worldwide, the operation and construction of pipeline networks have been attached with new energy-saving and emission-reduction targets. This chapter systematically sorts out and summarizes the carbon emission sources and environmental impacts of pipelines during the whole life cycle. The models for the life cycle assessment are also clarified from the perspective of construction, operation, fugacity, leakage, recycle, and disposal. Through the result analysis from the existing work, this chapter identifies the driving factors of emissions, including pipe length, diameter, and throughput. Finally, relevant recommendations are put forward based on the results to help reduce emissions from pipe transportation.
