STATS Group supplied two 36” Inline Weld Test Tools (IWTTs) for a valve replacement programme at a gas processing facility in Western Australia. Following installation of the replacement valve and weld-neck flanges, the tools were used to verify the upstream and downstream flange welds by performing a localised hydrostatic test on each weld at 213 bar.
