Acoustic Wave-Based Method of Locating Tubing Leakage for Offshore Gas Wells

This paper presents a novel acoustic wave-based method for the detection of leakage in downhole tubing of offshore gas wells. The localization model is developed on the basis of analyzing the propagation model of leakage acoustic waves and the critical factors in localization. The proposed method is...
