API RP 1130

Description

This recommended practice (RP) focuses on the design, implementation, testing, and operation of CPM systems that use an algorithmic approach to detect hydraulic anomalies in liquid pipelines. These systems provide tools that assist controllers in detecting commodity releases that are within the sensitivity of an algorithm. CPM system provide an alarm and display other related data to the controllers to aid in decision-making. The controllers would undertake an immediate investigation, confirm the reason for the alarm and initiate an operational response to the hydraulic anomaly when the alarm represents an irregular operating condition, abnormal operating condition or a commodity release.
