A gas leakage meter (100) for use onsite in a process plant comprises a housing (110) with an inlet (101), an outlet (102) and an inlet nozzle (111) fluidly connected to a unit to be tested (3) through a downstream connector (1040) and to the inlet (101), the housing (110) being filled with a liquid to a level (10). An inclined pipe (120) is arranged such that, in use, test gas released from the inlet nozzle (111) raises through a liquid and the inclined pipe (120) to a gas-collecting chamber (122) at an upper end of the inclined pipe. (120). The gas-collecting chamber (122) has a gas release valve (150; 170) for releasing test gas before a test period. Embodiments where the inclined pipe (120) is mounted on a pivot and alternative gas release valves (150, 170) are also disclosed.

A leak detection system includes a testing interface, which includes a rotation holder configured to retain and rotate a package. The testing interface includes a plunger apparatus configured to actuate a plunger to apply a pressure to the package before and/or during the package being inspected using a high voltage leak detection (HVLD) apparatus. The testing interface also includes a controller configured to operate and coordinate the operation of the testing interface with operation of the HVLD apparatus.

A method of detecting leakage within a chassis includes mounting the chassis on a plate disposed in a sealed chamber and fluidly connecting, by a pipe, an interior space of the sealed chamber to a water tank such that a bottom end of the pipe is under a surface of water in the water tank. The method further includes determining, such as observing, whether bubbles are formed at the bottom end of the pipe due to pressurized air flowing into the pipe. The method also includes determining presence of a leak in the chassis due to pressurized air flowing between the chassis and the sealed chamber, before flowing into the pipe.

A sealing integrity evaluation device for high-temperature and high-pressure casing-cement ring-formation and a method thereof are provided. the device includes: a high-temperature autoclave, a temperature and pressure control system, and a casing-cement-formation combination; wherein the autoclave realizes alternating temperature and pressure during the experiment; the control system monitors, controls and records the temperature and pressure data; the combination simulates a full size or a compact size casing-cement-formation of a well. Casing-cement-formation combination samples are designed and prepared by simulating working conditions such as alternating temperature, pressure, and casing internal pressure, by testing the channeling and leakage pressure of the first interface and the second interface of combination, analyzing the shape and size of the internal defects, testing the compressive strength, provided a more stable and reliable experimental method and data support for the detection of cementing sheath sealing ability and the evaluation of sealing integrity.

A method of sensing leaking gas includes controlling the height of a gas injection port in the liquid away from the liquid surface to guide the leaking gas into the liquid through the gas injection port to generate bubbles, and detecting the flow rate of the bubbles generated in the liquid to improve the sensing accuracy of leaking gas.

An imaging scope includes an internal surface defining an internal cavity, a window permitting visual inspection of the internal cavity, a fluid in the internal cavity having a pressure different than ambient pressure, and a leak indicator transitionable between nonvisible and visible through the window when the pressure of the fluid changes toward ambient pressure.
