Dornod–Sainshand Oil Pipeline
The Dornod–Sainshand Oil Pipeline is a crude oil pipeline under construction in Mongolia, in collaboration with Chinese, and Russian governments and entities. Beginning in April 2022, with an expected finish date of late 2025, it plans to transport crude oil from the Dornod oil field in eastern Mongolia, to the Sainshand refinery in the southeastern part of the country. This is one of Mongolia's key projects to strengthen its infrastructure, and position in the global economic oil trade. History Mongolia has had a historic dependence on imported oil from neighbouring countries such as Russia. Despite having substantial oil reserves, the lack of infrastructure and refining capacity has forced Mongolia into a position of exporting raw resources, and importing refined products. The construction of the pipeline agreement, which was signed in April of 2022, has been a significant step towards Mongolia's energy independence.

Pipeline
A pipeline is a system of Pipe (fluid conveyance), pipes for long-distance transportation of a liquid or gas, typically to a market area for consumption. The latest data from 2014 gives a total of slightly less than of pipeline in 120 countries around the world. The United States had 65%, Russia had 8%, and Canada had 3%, thus 76% of all pipeline were in these three countries. The main attribute to pollution from pipelines is caused by corrosion and leakage. ''Pipeline and Gas Journal''s worldwide survey figures indicate that of pipelines are planned and under construction. Of these, represent projects in the planning and design phase; reflect pipelines in various stages of construction. Liquids and gases are transported in pipelines, and any chemically stable substance can be sent through a pipeline. Pipelines exist for the transport of crude and refined petroleum, fuels—such as oil, natural gas and biofuels—and other fluids including sewage, slurry, water, beer, hot wa ...

Oil Well
An oil well is a drillhole boring in Earth that is designed to bring petroleum oil hydrocarbons to the surface. Usually some natural gas is released as associated petroleum gas along with the oil. A well that is designed to produce only gas may be termed a gas well. Wells are created by drilling down into an oil or gas reserve and if necessary equipped with extraction devices such as pumpjacks. Creating the wells can be an expensive process, costing at least hundreds of thousands of dollars, and costing much more when in difficult-to-access locations, e.g., offshore. The process of modern drilling for wells first started in the 19th century but was made more efficient with advances to oil drilling rigs and technology during the 20th century. Wells are frequently sold or exchanged between different oil and gas companies as an asset – in large part because during falls in the price of oil and gas, a well may be unproductive, but if prices rise, even low-production wells may ...
