Fuel Tank Leak Detection: Methods and Systems

Volumetric monitoring, interstitial sensors, monitoring wells — catch a leak before it becomes a disaster.

Fuel leaks are a double risk: silent financial loss and environmental liability. Early detection is now essential for any modern station.

1. Statistical / volumetric monitoring

Compares measured tank level over time against sales and deliveries; any unexplained difference flags a possible leak — enabled automatically by ATG probes.

2. Interstitial sensors

In double-wall tanks and lines, a sensor in the gap detects liquid or pressure change — one of the fastest methods, catching leaks before they reach the soil.

3. Monitoring wells

Wells around the tank area detect hydrocarbons in soil or groundwater — an important environmental line of defence.

4. Real-time alerts

Linking sensors to a control unit that sends instant alerts turns a potential disaster into a simple maintenance action.
