On-Site MachiningModifications and repairswith portable machinery
Hydratight executes on-site repairs, improvementsand modifications to all kinds of equipment, plant andconstruction parts with a wide range of mobilemachinery. Highly qualified engineers and techniciansensure quality without compromise, comparable tostationary machining.
Portable machining is recommended for turning,drilling, milling and grinding of plant components,which either cannot or can only be disassembledand/or transported with great difficulty. Reducing costsfor dismantling, assembling, and transport of vesselsand equipment, on-site machining significantlyreduces downtime and increases plant safety.

Hot Tapping of PipelinesTapping of pipelines at full operating pressure
Meet deadlines safely and with minimum disruption toproduction; Hydratightʼs Hot and Cold Tapping serviceprovides the solution to plant and pipelinemodifications without the need to decommission, thusmaximising plant up-time. It is a precise process ofdrilling a hole in a piping system under pressure,without draining or spilling the products inside.
A valve (3) is mounted on the fitting (4) welded to theline. The tapping machine (1) installed on top of thevalve drills through (2) the opened valve into the pipe(5) and retains the coupon. Once retracted the valveis closed and the machine removed.
Safe, fast tie-ins, repairs, modifications and bypassof faulty or damaged systems all under full operatingconditions provides exceptional value and efficiency.
Benefits
On-line integration of tie-ins orbypass lines withoutproduction lossInstallation of thermowells withminimum disruption

On-Line Mechanical PluggingEmergency and scheduled stopping of a liquid or gas flow in a pipeline at full operating pressure
Purpose designed equipment in the hands of highlyskilled technicians enables fast and safe MechanicalLine Plugging at full operating pressure.
Hydratightʼs Line Plugging service is ideal for temporaryor permanent isolation of pipe work, allowing repair ormodification without the need for plant shut-down or theloss of production or process media.
Benefits
Isolate, repair or modify pipe-work without production lossPlug and bypass without interruption to process flow

On-Line Freeze PluggingCryogenic freezing of process or production media at full operating pressure to provide temporary isolation of pipe work
A non-invasive alternative to Mechanical Pluggingsuitable for pipelines up to 48” diameter.
Freezing the media down to form a plug allowsmodifications or repairs downstream without the needto drain the pipeline.
Benefits
Continued production during pipework modification or repairIntegrity of pipe work maintained –no need to re-test plug locationDrainage of media avoided,production performance maintained
This process requires the operator to stop the flowof media through the pipeline to allow freezing totake place.
Isolation of the downstream pipe is achieved by fittinga purpose made enclosure through which cryogenicLiquid Nitrogen or Carbon Dioxide are piped.
Rapid cooling of the process media inside the pipequickly follows forming a pressure tight frozen plug.
With no pipe modifications necessary, this temporaryplugging method offers a solution to maintenance orrepair needs.

On-Site Condenser and Heat-Exchanger RestorationRepair and restoration ofcondensors and heat-exchangers
Extend life of Heat Exchanger and Condensers by costeffectively returning their tubes to optimumperformance using the CTI Shield/Seal Service.
The CTI Shield/Seal is a high grade alloy thin-walledtube insert which prevents erosion and repairsdamage at the inlet and outlet of the tubes. Thisprocess can in many cases return leaking tubes to fullservice at a fraction of the cost of a full tubereplacement.
Close tolerance machining and the thin-wall design ofthe insert prevent turbulence normally associated withthis type of repair.
ApplicationsErosion at the tube end, pitting corrosionBig corrosion cracksGaps due to corrosionImproper tube wideningWeak tube to tube connections
CTI Full Length Tube LinerTM
as tube insertIf damage to the tubes is more extensive, the patentedCTI Full Length Tube Liner offers an effective solutionto erosion, corrosion wall thinning and pluggedleaking tubes.
BenefitsOn-site – cost and disruption ofplant transportation avoidedFast, economic re-instatement tooriginal specificationThe real alternative to full tube replacement

On-Line Safety-Valve TestingSafety-valve tests undernormal operating conditions
Hydratight is able to test the response pressure ofsafety relief valves under normal operating conditions.This TÜV-approved computerised test system doesnot require any increase of operating pressure.
Hydratightʼs state of the art technology provides theassurance and meets the obligation to regularly testthe operation of safety valves.
This market leading process enables testing withoutthe need to increase line pressure and eliminates theneed for unnecessary valve replacement.
Test procedureThe difference between operating and nominalresponse pressure is simulated by a pulling force in aspecial procedure. Applying this test procedure, noincrease of the operating pressure is required. Thismethod is applicable to all manufacturers and nominaldiameters of spring-loaded full-stroke or proportionalsafety relief valves.
Benefits
Test procedure applicable for all sizesTÜV approved certification for all tested valvesEnables testing of response pressures without increasing the operationalpressureAvoids down time and labour costs associated with valve removal/replacementEliminating costs for transport of the valves, avoids transport damageEfficient management of test data including settings and resultsReducing costsSuitable for gas, steam, condensate and water
