PRESSURE PULSE INJECTOR FOR FLOWLINE
DRIVE
April 2, 2026
A pressure pulse injector can include an accumulator, valves, and a control system. The control system can receive parameters, including a maximum pressure and target distance, about a flowline. The control system can determine a change in pressure for a pressure pulse based on the parameters. The control system can determine a pressurization level for fluid in the accumulator. The control system can transmit the pressure pulse into the flowline. The control system can determine, using a reflected pressure pulse, information about an anomaly in the flowline.
