Money Grows on Trees

Synopsis
The pipeline routes that bring North Sea gas ashore depend on both mathematical and technological considerations. This programme looks at the geological formation of gas under the North Sea; the allocation of exploration sectors; the processing and pipeline constructions needed to get the gas on-shore; the nature of tree-structure networks; the reasons for adopting particular routes for undersea pipelines.

Notes
NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
