Localised Weld Test & Ambient Barriers

After completing a welded repair or modification of piping or process equipment a leak or strength test is required to confirm the integrity of the new weld. Traditionally, this is carried out by flooding and pressurising the entire piping spool or system, however this is not always practical. Localised weld test tools provide a fast and efficient method of verifying the integrity of butt welds, joints or other welded pipe components. Weld test tools reduce system downtime and increase worksite safety by limiting the test area to only the new weld or welded components. This prevents a full system pressurisation which is beneficial to mature systems by decreasing the potential for leakage.

STATS has gained an extensive global track record for providing localised hydrostatic testing services and hot-work barriers to operators and contractors during maintenance shutdowns and turnarounds.
