SureTap® Hot Tap & Line Stop Fittings
Customised split tee fittings, manufactured to your specification
Reduce work scope duration and minimise downtime.
To eliminate unnecessary delays and ensure you have a full work package available at the start of a project, we design and manufacture pipeline fittings built to your specifications.

There's a cost attached to unnecessary downtime. The hours, days or weeks that you spend waiting for fittings to be fabricated and shipped to your location can inflate the duration of routine maintenance or repair work – and impact the overall profitability of your operation.
To ensure that work teams always have access to the fittings needed to tap, stop or modify a pipeline, we design, manufacture and test all necessary components alongside our industry-leading hot tapping and line stopping equipment.
Case Study - Fittings For Major Gas Pipe Upgrade in USA
Alongside two BISEP ™ line plugging tools, STATS provided the 36" and 24" fittings needed to replace 10 miles of gas pipeline without halting production.
Our SureTap split tee fittings are manufactured according to your specifications, and always adhere to the most stringent industry standards – including ASME B31.3, ASME B31.4/8, and CSA Z662.
We can supply a wide range of split tee fittings for hot tapping or line stopping, including 3 way fittings, spherical or extended fittings, with custom fittings up to 60" in diameter.
Because we have manufacturing facilities in Europe, USA, Canada and the Middle East, we can guarantee quick turnaround times for large or small orders in most oil producing countries. We also manufacture and supply welded fittings for onshore facilities and transmission/distribution pipelines across the globe.
Streamline & De-Risk maintenance & repair work
We built our reputation on our ability to design and manufacture technology that solves complex engineering challenges, but our team of in-house designers, fabricators and welders are equally adept at producing and installing split tee fittings.
With manufacturing facilities in USA, Canada, Europe and the Middle East, we can supply standard and custom-built fittings on a quick turnaround to our customers in all continents.
Our split tee fittings are suitable for hot tap tie-ins as well as line stopping activities using industry or STATS BISEP line stopping tools to facilitate pipeline maintenance, modification or repair work.
We can manufacture to your exact specification and all of our split tee fittings are designed for interoperability with industry-standard tapping and line stop equipment, giving operators freedom to use their existing equipment or any of their preferred service provider.
When you commission us to design, manufacture, test and install our split tee fittings, we'll ensure your exact requirements are met and deploy our in-house design team to engineer a tailored solution.
We can work with your drawings, or produce our own. When working up drawings for custom pipeline fittings, we're detail-oriented: carrying out pressure/thickness and area replacement calculations, considering any requirements for branch and equipment loading and accounting for any code-specific material and testing requirements.
If required, we can conduct finite element analysis (FEA) to confirm the suitability of fittings for line stopping loads if required. (ASME VIII Div 2 part 5: plastic collapse and local failure).
We also have hydro-testing capabilities to confirm the integrity of all split tee fittings, and all fittings are produced and controlled within our industry-leading ISO 9001 Integrated Management System to ensures repeatable quality and consistency.
We supply complete data books with design, MTR, weld, NDE and dimensional QA / QC information with every fitting we design and manufacture.

Complete Hot Tapping & Line Stopping Solutions Built on Dual Seal Principles
Our integrated hot tapping and line stopping solutions means every product maintains the same high-integrity isolation philosophy. From initial pipeline access through intervention and isolation to final completion, STATS products deliver consistent double block and bleed verification at each stage of your operation.
Our hot tapping machines, line stopping tools, custom-engineered fittings and dual seal completion plugs are designed to work together seamlessly, ensuring that verified safety standards are maintained throughout your project. Onshore, topsides, or subsea, this integrated approach reduces risk, streamlines operations, and provides the regulatory compliance that modern pipeline work demands.
Each product is built on proven STATS isolation technology and shares the same fundamental design principles - verifiable dual seals, fail-safe restraint mechanisms, and independently verified integrity. This consistency means your team works with familiar safety protocols across the entire hot tapping and line stopping workflow, from hot tapping through to completion.
SureTap® Plug
The first dual seal double block and bleed completion plug for hot tapping operations. The SureTap Plug provides verified pressure barrier integrity when removing temporary valves and installing blinds. IMCA compliant for subsea use.
SureTap® Hot Tapping Machines
Industry-leading hot tapping machines provide performance and reliability for critical, high-pressure tapping operations. With pressure ratings up to 153 bar and subsea capability, SureTap machines allows taps to be performed safely on a wide range of pipeline materials and mediums, including use with sour (H2S) products.
BISEP® Line Stopping Tool
Industry-leading dual seal line stopping technology providing leak-tight isolation of live, pressurised pipelines. The BISEP is DNV Type Approved to provide fail-safe, double block and bleed isolation while flow is maintained through an integrated bypass.
Subsea BISEP® Line Stopping Tool
The subsea industry's highest integrity double block and bleed line stopping solution, meeting IMCA diver safety requirements for breaking of containment. DNV Type Approved for Pipeline Isolation Plugs to provide dual seal and isolation in accordance with Offshore Standards; DNV-OS-F101and recommended Practices; DNV-RP-F113.
Local Everywhere
Instead of flying people and equipment all over the world, we've set up fully-functional bases in nine strategic locations. These bases enable us to employ local technicians, work with local manufacturers, and invest in local economies. They're a significant investment, but our regional bases are key to delivering the best possible service for our clients - and minimising the environmental impact of our work.
