Leak monitoring system detection limit

Wherever possible, there should be a continuous secondary barrier for the entire pipeline system, in the form of jacket pipes, collecting basins, and channels. In some cases, this is not possible because it would impede cathodic corrosion protection or because differential expansion of the pipe and outer jacket threaten the systan. The secondary barrier can then only consist of intensive organizational and operative backup measures shorter inspection periods, shorter distances between shutoff points to limit possible losses, more elaborate provisions for leak detection, continual ronote monitoring of the pipeline systan, both internally and externally, equipment for tackling anergency events and catastrophes, contingency plans, and so forth.
