Leak detection system (LDS)
LDS is a hardware and software complex intended for continuous control over integrity of pipelines, detection of any pipeline damages and leaks of various gases and liquids (including hydrocarbonic ones) and their mixes caused by both internal and external process influence.
LDS is intended for timely detection and locating of leaks.
LDS provides timely revealing and locating of leaks which are caused by defects of the process equipment and non-authorized sampling.
The basis of LDS operation is online nonstationary pipeline model which considers dynamic processes connected with switching of actuation mechanisms, change of active topology of the pipeline, change of qualitative characteristics of the product, such as density, temperature, and other factors.
