1. Read the article “A Petroleum Leakage Detection System”, then answer the question by
using skimming and scanning technique.
a. What is the topic of the article?
Answer : The topic of the article is petroleum leakage detection system. It is a system
that is designed to monitor seepage of petroleum products across pipeline installations.
b. What is the main idea of the first paragraph of the article?
Answer : The main idea of the first paragraph is leakages from petroleum pipeline have
been a subject of major concern to inhabitants of pipeline installations.
c. Who is the author of the article
Answer : The author of the article are Salami S.O, Green O.O and Akinrinlola Ibitoye.
d. Where and when is the article published?
Answer : The article published in https://ojs.bilpublishing.com/index.php/ese website
on 30 April 2020.
e. How does the system work?
Answer : when the sensor detects any of these gasses, the output impedance of the
sensor drops to less than 100ohms, which make it releases its output voltage to the
microcontroller. The microcontroller, on getting the signal from the sensor, sends an
output high signal to the
buzzer, and also send a message to the LCD and to a remote computer system via the
max232serial interface unit.

2. Read the article again then make it into a note (150 words) . Choose one of the types of
note-taking before.
Answer :
The Outlining Note Taking Method
A Petroleum Leakage Detection System
1. Background Study
 Leakages from petroleum pipeline have been a subject of major concern to
inhabitants of pipeline installations.
  Pipeline vandalism refers to a deliberate act of damaging petroleum pipelines with
criminal financial intent
 Mahalingam et al.proposed a cost effective gas leakage detector. Their work was
designed to meet UK occupational and health hazard safety standards. This
system was developed in Shell and has the ability to detect leakages using flow
pattern recognition analysis
 This work therefore, has proposed a petroleum leakage detector for use across
pipeline installations in Nigeria.
2. System Design & Implementation
 The power supply needed to drive the system is in two folds; a 5v d.c for the
microcontroller and a 12vdc to power the gas sensor and the alarm circuit.
 The microcontroller, Atmel AT89C51 is an 8bit component with 4K byte of flash
programmable and erasable Read Only Memory (PEROM) with 1000 write/erase
cycles for flexible programming and debugging
 The LCD is a 16x2 portable liquid crystals display which output a caption «Gas
found» or «Gas not found» as controlled by the microcontroller. C is an interface
unit that connects the microcomputer to a per-sonal computer unit.
3. Operation Technique
 When the sensor detects any of these gasses, the output impedance of the sensor
drops to less than 100ohms, which make it releases its output voltag to the
microcontroller. The microcontroller, on getting the signal from the sensor, sends
an output high signal to the buzzer, and also send a message to the LCD and to a
remote computer system via the max232serial interface unit.
4. Testing And Result
 Before construction, a simulation test was carried out using PROTEUS software.
To a large extent, it gave a satisfactory result.

3. Please describe the article into descriptive text (150-250 words)

1. The characteristic of the text, the features of the text, the language use in the text
2. Or anything that can describe about this text
Answer : This article entitled Petroleum Leak Detection System was written by Salami
S.O, Green O.O, and Akinrinlola Ibitoye and published in the Department of Computer
Engineering, Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu, Lagos, Nigeria online on April 30, 2020.
The article describes a system that can detect Petroleum leaks. The language features of
artiel include the use of denotative words (words that have real meanings), the use of terms
such as sensor, microcontroller, detection, alarm, LCD, etc., the use of many conjunctions
such as cause, because, if, so. , etc., as well as the use of words. mental work such as
arguing, inferring, estimating, etc. This article consists of 5 sub topics, the first is
Background study which explains about the system in general, the second is the design and
implementation of the system, which explains how each component in the system works
and its implementation, the third is operating technique which explains how the system
works, and the fourth is testing and implementation. The results describe the experiment
and the results and the last is the conclusion.
