GASEOUS FUEL LEAKAGE FROM FUEL SYSTEM MANIFOLD TO ENGINE

There are describes methods and systems for operating an engine coupled to a fuel system (120) having a fuel manifold (200) configured to supply fuel to a combustor (16) of the engine (100). The method comprises receiving a gaseous fuel flow request indicative of a change in demand for gaseous fuel to the engine; applying a fuel loss bias to the gaseous fuel flow request to obtain a biased fuel flow request, the fuel loss bias associated with a change in mass flow rate of the gaseous fuel from the fuel manifold (200) to the combustor (16) in response to the change in demand; and causing the gaseous fuel to flow into the combustor (16) in accordance with the biased fuel flow request.
