Abstract
Technical solutions are described for predicting linepack delays. An example method includes receiving temporal sensor measurements of a first fluid-delivery pipeline network and generating a causality graph of the first fluid-delivery pipeline network. The method also includes determining a topological network of the stations based on the causality graph, where the topological network identifies a temporal delay between a pair of stations. The method also includes generating a temporal delay prediction model based on the topological network and predicting the linepack delays of a second fluid-delivery pipeline network based on the temporal delay prediction model, where a compressor station of the second fluid-delivery pipeline network compresses fluid based on the predicted linepack delays to maintain a predetermined pressure.
