The FiberStrike Pipeline Leak Detection system deploys a combination of fiber optic and electroacoustic technologies to accurately identify the location of a pipeline leak or crack. A “zone” is defined as the distance between any two sensor points. When any two sensors simultaneously detect a leak a determination can be made as to how far from each sensor the activity is occurring and “zero in” on the event. An unlimited number of zones may be linked together to manage vast expanses of pipeline.
