Description A fugitive emission of natural gas during the extraction of oil and gas and its transportation through the pipeline has potential
threat to the environment. Natural gas (NG) is the mixture of hydrocarbon gases consisting primarily of methane and other varying
hydrocarbons, a small fraction of carbon dioxide, hydrogen, nitrogen, hydrogen sulphide and rare trace gases like helium, neon, xenon
etc. The colorless and odorless NG has a wide range of applications as a cleaner fuel. The rapid urbanization, industrialization and
economic growth all over the world demand the increasing transportation capacity of NG. Though the transportation pipeline are laid
with well-equipped sophisticated technology and leak detection sensors, however still there are risk factor associated for leakage of the
gases and explosion. The impacts of man-made disaster are in terms of deaths, injury, losses in economics, property and also having the
adverse effect on ecology. The integrity of the NG pipeline system can be achieved by adopting continuous sophisticated up gradation
technology. It also requires operation and maintenance of the pipeline at regular interval.
