Abstract:
This study is an extended and updated version of those already reported. It illustrates the results obtained from ordinary maintenance operations on six large sets of urban mains, with a view to optimizing the establishment of a reliability data bank. The study illustrates the extreme individuality of gas distribution plants and the need for a sector data bank.
