The Sunniland Pipeline Co. uses a programmable logic controller-based system to provide control, monitoring, leak detection and automatic shutdown for a crude oil pipeline. The most important function performed by the PLCs is steady state leak detection. This determines any loss of pipeline oil by comparing flow data from the six digital flow meters over a period of time.
