What is the relationship between flow rate and pipe diameter?

At the beginning of loading or unloading oil, since there is always some water remaining in the oil transfer pipes, the flow rate should be kept low, generally not exceeding 1 m/s. This is especially true for oil tankers that have previously had ballast water in them; when loading light oil, strict control is necessary. The flow rate can only be increased after the oil level rises above the ship’s longitudinal beams and the water settles at the bottom of the tanker. Is there a specified maximum limit for this flow rate? What is the relationship between the flow rate and the pipe diameter? I would appreciate guidance from those with expertise in this area.
