The Latest New Pipeline Gas Leak Detection Methods

[مطلب به صورت فایل ارائه می باشد] Natural gas consumption in the world is expected to be increased to 50% within the next 20 years. At the same time, the current gas Transmission and delivery infrastructures (export/local pipeline) are rapidly aging. Natural gas infrastructure reliability is one of the most critical priorities of the energy sector. The largest component of the natural gas infrastructure is the approximately thousands kilometers of delivery pipelines. Therefore, the reliable and timely detection of failure of any part of the export/local pipeline is critical to ensure the reliability of the natural gas infrastructure.Natural gas transmission system includes: - Thousands miles of pipeline - Transmission stations and - Compressors. Natural gas leakage from pipelines results in : - waste of gas supply - loss of life and property - an obvious threat to the environment In some parts of the world, it is estimated that such losses exceed 15% of gas supply. So: To accommodate security and integrity of this system, a continual process of searching, locating, and repairing leaks should be executed.
