Abstract
A method and system for detecting an anomaly in a pumped pipeline is disclosed. A data stream is received over time on operation of the pump and pump start and pump stop event data is obtained from the data stream. For each pair in time of a pump start event and preceding pump stop event in the data stream flow is calculated and compared to expected flow. Variation between calculated flow and expected flow is recorded as an exception and an alarm is triggered in dependence on the exception.
