Compare the organisation's handling of hydraulic leak detection with recognised practice, and close the material gaps.
Designing Protocols for Early Detection of Hydraulic Oil Leaks
Develop the judgement and the documentation needed to run hydraulic leak detection properly.
Course Overview
Maintenance budgets are cut on hydraulic leak detection in good years and paid for in bad ones. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting the engineering and maintenance work discipline, ready to be adapted internally. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in the practice within engineering and maintenance work that were visible long before the incident. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting hydraulic leak detection and under-invest in testing it. Every module pairs a short input on this part of engineering and maintenance work with structured practice on the participant's own material. The course gives participants a defensible structure for this area of engineering and maintenance work and the judgement to adapt it. It is designed for mixed groups, so that hydraulic leak detection is examined from more than one functional angle. Participants leave with a plan for this strand of engineering and maintenance work sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.

Course Modules
Hydraulic leak detection: history, documentation and competence
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Investigating the failure on hydraulic leak detection that keeps returning
- Choose the maintenance strategy for hydraulic leak detection based on failure pattern, not tradition.
- Identify the data already collected that bears on hydraulic leak detection.
- Check that hydraulic leak detection still works when volumes rise unexpectedly.
- Confirm that those complying with hydraulic leak detection understand why it exists.
Session 2Choosing a maintenance strategy for hydraulic leak detection on evidence
- Agree the smallest change to hydraulic leak detection that would be visibly useful.
- Investigate repeat failures on hydraulic leak detection to root cause, not to component.
- Prepare the summary of hydraulic leak detection that senior management will read.
- Assign responsibility for keeping documentation of hydraulic leak detection current.
