Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a leak location system, in particular to an oil and gas pipeline leak monitoring and location system and method based on optical fiber negative pressure waves. Background technique [0002] Oil and gas pipelines are an important means of transportation of oil and natural gas. At present, the total mileage of China's oil and gas pipelines has reached 140,000 kilometers, and it undertakes 70% of my country's crude oil and 99% of natural gas transportation tasks. The data shows that the average accident rate of oil and gas pipelines in my country is 3 times per 1000 km per year, much higher than the 0.5 per 1000 km per year in the United States and 0.25 per 1000 km per year in Europe. According to statistics, the main causes of my country's oil and gas pipeline accidents are man-made third-party sabotage and malicious perforation to steal oil (gas), as well as pipeline corrosion and sudden natural disasters. Therefore, real-time ...

Problems solved by technology

Judging from the actual operation of the system, low detection sensitivity and poor positioning accuracy are currently the bottleneck restricting the development of negative pressure wave leak detection technology

When using the negative pressure wave method to locate the leak, it is necessary to calculate the position of the leak point through the negative pressure wave velocity, and the propagation speed of the negative pressure wave is related to the characteristics of the pipeline transmission medium, the material of the pipeline, and other factors. Therefore, to accurately locate the leakage of the pipeline, it is necessary It is necessary to first determine the propagation speed of the negative pressure wave in the pipeline, and
