Benefits of Line Stopping
Line Stopping is a very effective technique to shutting off a section of a “live” pipeline. The benefits of this methodology mean that the entire premises will be able to continue to function throughout the day and night pretty much as normal, except for perhaps a very small section. The line stopper is in effect, a temporary valve, and serves as a point of control. By using the Line Stopping technique, it has the benefits of;
• Avoiding total shutdown costs and minimizes economic loss
• Provide safer repair and maintenance working conditions
• Stay in control of the flow of the pipeline
• Enable engineers to be able to work freely without constraints that total shutdown would put upon them
• Assist communities with a fast and effective option for quick repairs
With a total system shutdown, there are numerous additional risks, including backflow, boil orders, possible contamination and plugged water meters.
Due to the compartmentalizing nature of Line Stopping, this safer and secure method is much preferred by many leading firms and vendors, and it has become an essential go-to specification for many engineering repairs.
