Abstract: All gas systems leak. Gas escapes every system in one way or another. This is true because gas is permeable to every system. For instance, with PE2306 pipe the volume of methane lost through permeation in one mile of two-inch pipe operated at 60 psi is about 0.26 cubic feet per day. So, if every system leaks, then how much do we lose? Hence we have unaccounted-for-gas. Unaccounted for gas is truly accounted for gas- but it is missing! It is the difference between the amount of gas accounted into a system and the amount of gas accounted out. Many factors cause unaccounted for gas. Each should be examined before the missing gas is all attributed to leakage, a single cause of unaccounted-for-gas. Factors I would suggest evaluating are the following:
