About this webinar
Maintaining and modifying these pipelines present significant challenges: ageing infrastructure, environmental factors, and evolving regulatory requirements pose continuous hurdles for pipeline operators. Ensuring the integrity, safety, and reliability of pipelines while meeting growing energy demands requires innovative solutions and a proactive approach to maintenance and modification.
This webinar will discuss real world examples where temporary isolation tools and mechanical repair solutions have been deployed subsea to ensure efficient repair, tie-in and modification of pressurised pipelines. Technologies showcased will include inline isolation plugs, hot tapping, line plugging, mechanical connectors and clamps.
Double block and bleed isolation tools have been utilised to greatly reduce downtime, increase safety and maximise unplanned maintenance, providing cost-effective solutions to the end user. High integrity isolation methods will also be explained that enable piggable and unpiggable pipeline systems to be isolated before any breaking of containment and in compliance with subsea isolation guidelines.
STATS Group
STATS Group are market leaders in the supply of pressurised pipeline isolation, hot tapping and plugging services to the global oil, gas and petrochemical industries. STATS DNV GL type approved isolation tools provide leak-tight double block and bleed isolation that enables safe and efficient maintenance and repair of onshore, topsides and subsea pipeline infrastructure.
Their Process Plant Solutions offer hot-work barriers and localised hydrostatic test tools to verifying the integrity of welds or fittings, reducing system downtime, minimising environmental impact and increasing worksite safety. Mechanical pipe connectors replace the need for welding, significantly reducing expenditure and associated risks with hot-work.
