Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Offshore pipelines are essential for the transportation of oil, gas, and other liquids from subsea wells to onshore facilities or between offshore facilities. Their operation involves several key components and processes to ensure safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible transport. Research on offshore pipeline technology is continuously evolving, focusing on improving safety, efficiency, and environmental sustainability. Offshore pipeline operations require a multidisciplinary approach involving engineering, environmental science, regulatory knowledge, and cutting-edge technology to ensure the safe, efficient, and sustainable transport of resources.
For this Special Issue, we invite papers that present theoretical, experimental, or numerical works related to offshore pipeline operations and the sustainable development of offshore infrastructure, but the Special Issue’s scope is not limited to these areas. Papers on related issues, such as offshore pipeline design and environmental impact assessment during construction, are also welcome. We also welcome works related to the decommissioning of pipelines and minimization of long-term man-made and environmental impacts.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
