Hot tapping, or pressure tapping, is the method of connecting to existing pipe or pressure vessels without the interruption of service or emptying that section of pipe or vessel. This means that a pipe or tank can continue to be in operation whilst maintenance or modifications are being done to it. The process is also used to drain off pressurised casing fluids.
Hot tapping is also the first procedure in line stopping, where a cutter is used to make an opening in the pipe, so a line plugging head can be inserted.

A line stop actuator plays an important part in the hot tapping procedure – a process used in industries such as oil & gas, petrochemicals, utilities, and power generation. Hot tapping allows tees, flanges, and valves to be added to a section of piping, without interruption to the flow of the product.

Propipe Hottap Machines: Expanding, Connecting, and Repairing Pipelines Without Interrupting SupplyPropipe hottap machines enable expansion, connection, and repair work on pipeline infrastructure under pressure without interrupting supply. These pipelines can transport water, gas, crude oil, and other products in petrochemical or biogas plants.In particular, large-diameter water transport pipelines, such as those measuring up to 2000
The installation of flow meters on pressured pipeline at biogas plants will enable the sale of methane gas produced from the recycling of waste from Madrid’s sewer system to Spain’s natural gas distributor, Naturgy. Our technology makes these installations possible without plant shutdowns.For more information about our products and capabilities, visit wwwpropipe.com
