Abstract: The title of this discussion is A.S.M.E. Leakage Control Guidelines-Whats Ahead, However, before discussing what is ahead, it would be well to look to where we have been and where we are now. The development of leakage control guidelines has not been a simple task. In fact, there were many who believed a few years ago that it couldnt be done. After all, many companies even had problems being consistent in their leakage control program within their own organization- Therefore, the establishment of leakage control guidelines which would cover the entire United States and the full spectrum from cross country transmission facilities to metropolitan distribution systems seemed insurmountable. However, it was recognized that there was a great need for greater uniformity of leakage classification within the gas industry. As a result of this need, an ad hoc task group was put together by the ASME Gas Piping Standards Committee. This task group was charged with the responsibility to develop leakage control guideline material for the ASME Guide for Gas Transmission and Distribution Piping Systems.
