| Objectives | Investigate the self relieve system on the Cameron type 31 valve and assess possible solutions Model and validate the use of leak detection equipment for above ground and below ground process valves (truncated) The project will identify suitable alarm options for the self relieving single piston valve, and provide an assessment of the performance of the valve leakage detection equipment in quantifying leakage for both above and below ground process valves.

| Abstract | On the National Transmission System (NTS) there are two types of ball valves used for pipework isolation purposes, Cameron and Cort. The primary interest on this project is the large ball valves used to isolate pigtraps across the NTS, necessary for inlin (truncated) | |
