Abstract: A method and system for analysing a condition of a pipeline in real time is disclosed. The method and system comprise generating a transient pressure wave in fluid carried along the pipeline and detecting a transient pressure wave interaction signal responsive to the transient pressure wave where the pressure wave interaction signal has a time duration corresponding to a region of interest of the pipeline. The method and system further includes processing the transient pressure wave interaction signal to analyse the region of interest of the pipeline.
