Methods that more quickly locate leakages in natural gas pipelines are urgently required. In this paper, an improved negative pressure wave method based on FBG based strain sensors and wavelet analysis is proposed. This method takes into account the variation in the negative pressure wave propagation velocity and the gas velocity variation, uses the traditional leak location formula, and employs Compound Simpson and Dichotomy Searching for solving this formula. In addition, a FBG based strain sensor instead of a traditional pressure sensor was developed for detecting the negative pressure wave signal produced by leakage. Unlike traditional sensors, FBG sensors can be installed anywhere along the pipeline, thus leading to high positioning accuracy through more frequent installment of the sensors. Finally, a wavelet transform method was employed to locate the pressure drop points within the FBG signals. Experiment results show good positioning accuracy for natural gas pipeline leakage, using this new method.

Negative Pressure Wave

The appearance of a rupture, leak or damage in the long-distance oil & gas pipeline, which could cause a leak, usually generates a non-linear & chaotic negative pressure wave signal. By properly interpreting the negative pressure wave signature, it is possible to detect a leak along the pipeline. Most traditional noise reduction methods are established based on the linear system, which are not in line with the actual non-linear & chaotic situation. Therefore, the weak negative pressure wave signals, generated by small leaks, are often filtered out and cause false alarm and failure alarm. In order to resolve the problem, this paper uses the non-linear projective algorithm for noise reduction. First, the weak negative pressure wave signal series would be reconstructed using delay coordinates, in the high dimensional phase space, the background signal, the negative pressure wave signal and the noise signal are separated into different sub-spaces. Through the reconstruction of sub-spaces, the weak pressure wave signal can be isolated from the background signal as well as the random noise component reduced.
