Abstract
When transporting liquids in pipeline systems there is a potential for creating hydraulic transients (surge pressures). There are a number of methods used to arrest surge pressures. A brief review of the cause of surge pressures is given, and some measures for mitigating the damage by surge pressures are introduced. These measures include application of pressure relief valves and avoidance of rapid closing of valves
