ABSTRACT:
An automated liquid volume monitoring system and method for determining storage tank leak rate. Volume changes necessary to maintain storage tank liquid level, and volume changes due to temperature changes, are substantially constantly measured and calculations are made to determine actual leak rate. Leak rate calculations are made frequently and averaged periodically to provide updated leak rate indications for a system operator.
