Abstract

The world demand for energy is increasing every year due to a rising population. Koya city, as a part of this world, has expanded in area and population. Therefore, providing fuel for the city via tankers and vehicles might be difficult and cause road accidents. This study investigates the designing of a gas distribution network for the city of Koya. Extending the pipeline service could supply gas to Koya’s residents in a modern way and reduce road traffic. The aim of the study is to deliver clean energy for transport, residential, industrial and commercial needs. The project’s plan, development, operation, and application are a complex task that needs real support from Kurdistan Government, particularly the local authority and Koya University.
