Advanced leak detection technologies have been developed in recent years which the efficiency and accuracy of the process is much improved.
A successful leakage detection programme requires a great deal of professional input with respect to strategic system monitoring, optimal use of resources to collect data, experienced judgment of valid leak signals, recommendation of further investigation and prioritization of remedial measures. 
Sometimes there is also a risk of damaging the pipe body in exposing the suspected leaking main for visual inspection.
