Results of Range - Finding Testing of Leak Detection and Leak Location Technologies fo r Underground Pipelines This study reviewed the current leak de tection and leak location methods for pressurized underground piping commonly found at airports, refineries, and fuel terminals. Four meth ods for testing underground pipes of 6 in. to 18 in. i n d i a m e t e r a n d 2 5 0 f t t o 2 m i l e s i n l e n g t h w e r e s e l e c t e d f o r f i e l d demonstration. These technologies we re constant - pressure volumetric testing, pressure - decay testing, ch emical tracer testing, and acoustic emission testing. No single leak detect ion system was found to work in all situations; site - specific conditions may affect an y method, and combinations of methods may provide the most effective approach
