Think Hot Tapping Services When Shutdown is not Viable (or Possible)

Yes, it is very much possible to install a connection to a live pipe, without resorting to a complete shutdown. Yes, you heard it right. And, the trick here is to use Hot Tapping Services. Must have heard about it, haven’t you?

Under Hot Tapping, or Under Pressure Drilling, the purpose is to do some modifications or maintenance work to a live pipeline or pipelines. And, under this process, there is no need to resort to a complete shutdown. Just imagine the kind of losses one can incur, if operations need to be stalled for the maintenance work! In addition, ‘Hot Tapping’ can be done on almost any type of pipe, including Iron, Steel, Plastic, and Concrete, whilst the system is in operation.
