Article 14 – paragraph 2 – subparagraph 2
Thereafter, leak detection and repair surveys shall be repeated every three months. will be conducted on the basis of sectoral differentiation, with frequencies and minimum detection thresholds different for the upstream, midstream and downstream gas sector. In midstream sector: a) compressor stations, underground storage LNG-terminals will be surveyed every 6 months, searching for a minimum leak size of 400g/h and every 12 months for a minimum leak size of 20 g/h. b) regulating and metering stations will be surveyed every 12 months searching for a minimum leak size of 20 g/h. c) valve stations will be surveyed every 24 months searching for a minimum leak size of 20g/h. LDAR campaigns at the distribution level will follow a performance-based approach setting inspection intervals consistent with the sensitivity to leakage of the material that constitute the network: a) grey cast iron networks will be surveyed every 6 months; b) asbestos networks will be surveyed every 12 months; c) ductile cast iron networks will be surveyed every 24 months; d) non protected steel networks will be surveyed every 36 months; e) polyethylene, PVC or protected steel (<=16 bar) networks will be surveyed every 60 months. These inspection frequencies represent the minimum for LDAR campaigns.The CEN will further specify and adopt the methodologies for inspection intervals, eventually reducing the periods between inspections. Operators may use continuous monitoring systems instead of or in addition to LDAR investigations if the competent authorities approve their use in the context of the LDAR programme mentioned in paragraph 1 and in accordance with the elements outlined in Part 1 of Annex I. Through national/local pipeline integrity management regulations and guidelines, such as those defined in EN 1594, procedures are in place to prevent any leakage for protected steel > 16 bar. Incident related emissions such as third party damage are detected on occurrence and repaired as soon as possible.
