Technologies for real-time leak detection
This paper delves into the application of the statistical volume balance and negative pressure wave methods
to two of Equinor's pipeline systems.
Through detailed case studies, the paper illustrates the integration of these
technologies into Equinor's operations, highlighting their benefits and outlining the key success
factors and strategies for overcoming implementation challenges.
