Industries That Rely on Pipeline Leak Detection Systems

 

 

Pipeline failures are more than just operational setbacks—they are financial, environmental, and regulatory crises waiting to happen. A single undetected leak can lead to catastrophic spills, millions in lost revenue, regulatory fines, and reputational damage that is nearly impossible to reverse. The industry can’t afford to rely on outdated or inaccurate detection systems that either fail to identify leaks in time or produce so many false alarms that operators start ignoring them.

Leak detection should be fast, precise, and dependable—and that’s exactly what Pipewise delivers. Our Computational Pipeline Monitoring (CPM) systems provide real-time, highly sensitive leak detection, ensuring that even the smallest leaks are identified before they escalate. By integrating cutting-edge machine learning, transient modelling, and volume balance methodologies, Pipewise eliminates guesswork and equips operators with instant, data-driven decision-making tools to protect their assets and the environment.

Leak detection in oil and gas pipelines is not just a best practice—it’s a regulatory necessity. With the increasing enforcement of API RP 1130, CSA Z662 Annex E, and DOT PHMSA 49 CFR Part 195, operators need a system that not only detects leaks but also provides accurate, auditable data to satisfy compliance requirements.

Pipewise has designed its CPM technology specifically for high-consequence areas (HCAs), remote locations, and complex pipeline networks. Whether transporting crude oil, condensate, NGLs, or produced water, operators need real-time leak detection that delivers both speed and accuracy without the noise of false alarms.

A study analyzing pipeline leak data comprised 470 sets, with 195 instances of leaks, highlighting the critical need for effective leak detection systems.
