Hot Tapping

Hot Tapping

Hot Tapping is a technique used to create connections to existing pipes without stopping the flow of fluid in the pipe. The process involves drilling a hole in a pipe that is operating under pressure, then installing a fitting and valve to connect the new pipe or other equipment. Hot tapping is often used in the oil and gas, chemical, and utility industries to maintain, repair, or add to pipelines without disrupting operations.

Stopple Plugs are tools used to stop the flow of fluid in a pipe without having to shut down the entire system. Stopple plugs allow for the isolation of a specific section of pipe for maintenance or repair. They work by inserting the stopper head into the pipe through a special fitting, then expanding to block the flow of fluid. Stopple plugs are often used in high-pressure applications and provide a safe and reliable solution for pipe isolation.
