Title: Rupture Detection In Multiple-Line Gas Transmission Systems

Abstract: The comments in this paper are based upon preliminary results of a program currently under way at SwRI for the Southern Gas Associations Pipeline and Compressor Research Council (SGA-PCRC) to define the present state of the art of pipeline rupture detection for the gas pipeline industry and to provide direction for future activity by the industry both in detecting and controlling the effects of pipeline rupture. Since the comments made today arc preliminary in nature, they do not necessarily represent final conclusions or the position of any particular segment of the pipeline industry. In the discussions that follow, an analysis will be made of several possible detection approaches which are at least theoretically functional and which show promise of usefulness. No discussion is given of the rarefaction wave (acoustic pulse) detectors, since these are covered in a separate paper at this conference.
