LeakPoint

Conventional leak detection methods are unreliable
With conventional leak-detection methods, reliability of diagnosis varies - results can be affected both by leak rate and location. Low-rate or complex, multiple leaks and certainly leaks beyond the primary tubular are a particular challenge. The outcomes of undetected, uncontrolled leaks - reduced performance and potentially serious HSE issues - can have very damaging human, environmental, political and financial consequences.

LeakPoint - reliable, accurate, effective
LeakPoint detection technology is sensitive to a very wide range of leak rates, from 0.02 to 5,000 litres/minute. Results are clear and unambiguous - leak locations are revealed with pinpoint accuracy, whether in the primary tubular and surrounding casings or in completion equipment. Unlike conventional methods, LeakPoint surveys provide the reliable data needed by operators to select, with confidence, the most effective remedial intervention to restore the integrity of a well.

The evidence of success is impressive. During the past five years, LeakPoint has located leaks in over 90% of the wells surveyed.
