A Survey of Practices for the Detection and Location of Leaks

Price: £250


Ref: 11/WM/08/45
ISBN: 1 84057 592 1

The objective of this report is to provide guidance in the application of leak localising and detection techniques to individuals responsible for managing the leak detection process.
Implementing the recommendations should lead to more effective and consistent decision making in both the selection of detection methods and the organisation of leak detection operations.
The report includes a decision-making matrix (as a separate spreadsheet) as a guide to the selection of the most appropriate techniques for pinpointing leaks. The report also includes a set of recommendations about data requirements, target setting and training.
The recommendations are based on information obtained from interviews with leakage managers and leakage technicians in nine companies, and equipment suppliers, along with a review of case studies.
