Today, following the comprehensive training of client´s technicians and the successful Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) of 16-inch underwater hot tap system at ours facilities in Madrid, The client have taken an innovative step forward. Their team has implemented a novel idea by applying photo luminescent paint to the protective frame of the hydraulic system. This specially formulated paint is suitable for underwater applications, enhancing “Situational Awareness” in conditions where visibility is scarce. The goal is to assist divers in quickly orienting themselves within the system under poor/low visibility conditions.

We conducted the testing within a fully enclosed 20’ container with no any artificial light. The results were clear and promising: the illuminated frame functions akin to an oversized chem light, offering significant visibility improvements…Next step, deploy the system in the Pacific Ocean soon.

Gas Bags Stopple LNG 01

Propipe Performs Hot Tap and Line Stop Gasbag Operation at LNG Plant

Propipe has successfully carried out a Hot Tap and Line Stop gasbag operation at a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) plant, enabling critical pipeline intervention without interrupting plant operations.
The project involved the installation of specialized hot tapping and line stopping equipment, followed by the deployment of gasbag isolation technology to safely control and isolate the pipeline section. This method allows maintenance and modification work to be performed while the pipeline remains in service, avoiding costly shutdowns and minimizing operational disruptions.
Executing such operations in LNG facilities requires strict safety standards, advanced engineering expertise, and highly trained personnel. Propipe’s team ensured that all procedures were carried out under rigorous safety protocols while maintaining the integrity of the plant’s gas infrastructure.
This project further demonstrates Propipe’s capability to deliver complex pipeline intervention solutions in high-demand energy environments, reinforcing the company’s reputation as a trusted partner for Hot Tap, Line Stop, and specialized pipeline maintenance services in the global LNG sector.
