Pressure point analysis is a different method developed to detect leaks in liquid, gas and some two-phase flow pipe lines. Descriptions of the system, how a leak is determined and how this method may interface with existing SCADA systems are given. PPA is based on research in the behavior of the energy and momentum balance on a pipe line (as represented by pressure and velocity measurements) before and after a leak occurs.
