Process and apparatus for sensing possible leaks in a pipeline. The pipeline is monitored continuously by acoustic monitoring means, and acoustic events indicating a possible leak are noted. The pipeline is also equipped with temperature monitoring means, and is monitored for temperature either continuously, periodically or on demand. A leak is deemed probable at any location where there is an acoustic event indicating a possible leak, and at approximately the same time, a temperature difference greater than a pre- chosen amount between that location and adjacent locations

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de détecter des fuites éventuelles dans un pipeline. Le pipeline est surveillé en continu par des moyens de surveillance acoustiques, et les événements acoustiques indiquant une fuite éventuelle sont relevés. Le pipeline est également équipé de moyens de surveillance de la température qui surveillent la température en continu, périodiquement ou sur demande. On estime qu'une fuite est probable lorsqu'un événement acoustique indique une fuite possible en un endroit et si, approximativement au même moment, une différence de température supérieure à une valeur prédéterminée est détectée entre cet endroit et les endroits adjacents.
