Pipeline leaks can have serious consequences including threats to human safety, damage to the environment, property and reputation, not to mention the financial loss through fines and clean-up costs.
For maximum efficiency it’s important that pipeline operators have a leak detection system (LDS) that they can rely on and ensure that they can detect leaks quickly, locate leaks accurately, issue minimal false alarms, be easy to retrofit, work effectively under all operating conditions and use sensors with high reliability and low maintenance.
