Abstract

The leakage detection of oil and gas is very important for the safe operation of pipelines. The existing working condition recognition methods have limitations in processing and capturing complex multi-category leakage signal characteristics. In order to improve the accuracy of oil and gas pipeline leakage detection, a multi-scale convolutional neural network-Transformer (MSCNN-Transformer)-based oil and gas pipeline leakage condition recognition method is proposed. Firstly, in order to capture the global information and nonlinear characteristics of the time series signal, STFT is used to generate the time-frequency image. Furthermore, in order to enrich the feature information from different dimensions, the one-dimensional signal and the two-dimensional time-frequency image are sampled by multi-scale convolution, and the global relationship is established by combining the multi-head attention mechanism of the Transformer module. Finally, the leakage signal is accurately identified by fusing features and classifiers. The experimental results show that the proposed method shows high performance on the GPLA-12 data set, and the recognition accuracy is 96.02%. Compared with other leakage signal recognition methods, the proposed method has obvious advantages.
