Abstract: A system for automatically monitoring and performing diagnostic procedures on a conduit of a hydrocarbon well operation is disclosed. System examples can use a combination of sensors, data acquisition devices, and computing devices to provide fully automated conduit monitoring and diagnostic procedures that can be based on a variety of different triggering conditions. At least one sensor can be located in fluid communication with the interior of a conduit. A pressure wave traveling through the conduit as a result of deliberate action or a natural occurrence is reflected by abnormal conditions in the conduit. The sensor can receive signals comprising the pressure wave reflections. Pressure data generated by the sensor in response to receiving the signals may be automatically collected and subsequently provided to a computing device that can analyze the pressure data and determine the existence and nature of one or more abnormal conditions of the conduit.
