HOT TAPPING

Hot tapping is a process for adding a branch connection into pressured pipelines, tanks, vessels or anything that contains pressure without shutting down, loss of product, or interrupting process flow.

• Hot tap sizes from ¼” to 42”
• Pressures up to 1440 psi @ 180 F / 700 F @ 700 psi
• High pressure mechanical clamps (1440 psi) to prove zero pressure in pipelines or for draining down systems - 2” to 12”

LINE FREEZING

Freeze plugs or ice plugs are an inexpensive and non-destructive technique for isolating piping systems for repairs, valve change-outs, hydro-testing and other maintenance.

• Line freeze chambers from ½” through to 36”
• Larger and custom sizes available to meet client requests
• Company owned nitrogen tankers

GEL PLUG SERVICE

Gel plugs are injected into a line or valve to create a blockage and can be used on plant sites and most pipelines as a temporary solution. Various gel plug types are available:

• Water
• Hydrocarbon
• Methanol

LINE STOPPING EQUIPMENT

Line stopping equipment temporarily stops flow in an operating piping system for repairs, alterations or relocations. The equipment is used to bypass lines so flow continues around a section of pipe being repaired.

• Low pressure equipment from 1 ¼” through 4”
• High pressure equipment from 4” through 12”

LINE CRIMPING

Line crimping is used when there is no valve or the valve is not functioning properly. Line crimping is also used on ruptured process lines.

• Equipment from ½” sch. 40 through 2” sch. 160
• Equipment from 2 ½” sch. 40 through 4” sch. 80

CORROSION PROTECTION—DIAMONDWRAP®

DiamondWrap® is an engineered product to arrest corrosion and restore structural integrity to piping. DiamondWrap® benefits includes:

• Bidirectional weave of carbon fibre that is stronger than steel
• DiamondWrap® can be installed on tees, elbows, straight runs, confined spaces and irregular surfaces
• No Plant downtime, pipes can be wrapped while the line is in service (line temperature permitting)
• DiamondWrap® saves time, labour and equipment costs
• CSA compliance is pending

JOINT INTEGRITY

Joint integrity programs include some of the most versatile hydraulic torquing and tensioning tools to help clients with scheduled shutdowns and daily maintenance.

• Tensioning Equipment ½” through 4” Studs
• Torquing Equipment ½” through 6 1/8” Nuts

ON-SITE MACHINING

On-site machining equipment is used to:

• Reface flanges
• Reface heat exchangers
• Cut and bevel pipe
• Milling of pump and motor bases
• Key-way cutting
• Turning of shafts on rotating equipment
• Pipe cutting and beveling equipment from 1” through 48”
• Milling equipment up to 96”
• Turning of shafts up to 4”
