Pipelines are an essential medium to transport oil and gas all over the country. Pipeline installation in India has led to successful transportation of these crucial yet flammable commodities through a vast network of on- and offshore pipelines. Regular inspections and maintenance ensure that any damage due to corrosion or leaks can be repaired in time. Pipelines are used to distribute petroleum products and natural gas liquids and thus their safety is a critical factor to be considered during pipeline installation . To ensure the integrity of the pipelines, regular maintenance and repairs must be performed to ensure optimum performance and avoid system failures.  Regular inspections are required for two reasons: Any defect during the oil or gas pipeline installation that goes undetected can cause deterioration or cause a leak that can be dangerous.  Most of the pipelines run underground. They cross over barriers as well. Though link and end seal s ensure that no outside parti...

Tubing is used to transport oil or gas and   casing insulators   protect these tubes. The casing pipeline keeps the main pipe safe. When the pipelines are crossing through any barrier, a   link seal   helps to seal the penetration. The   end seal   helps to ensure that nothing enters between the space between a carrier pipe (tubing) and a casing pipe. Link seal is oil, gas, fire, and extreme temperature resistant. Casing insulators  help in preventing: Contamination of freshwater, Instability in upper formations, Isolating zones that have different pressures while drilling. Casing insulators  are horizontal in shape. Casing pipes are made from steel. Located near r i vers, highways, railroads, and other such areas, pipelines are inside casings. Casings size can be 20inches to 7inches run through drilling hole sizes of 24 inches, 17 and a half inches,12 and a half inches, and 8 and a half inches. Tubing is usually cylindrical in shape. It can be ro...

  Pipelines undergo numerous inspections and pipeline rehabilitation companies use the latest technology to reduce the chances of a leak or a rupture. But whether it is a   gas pipeline in India   or an oil pipeline in India, they run much longer. Once they are installed it is more likely that a pipe will need to be repaired at some point in the future. Here are 5 tips to repair the underground pipe leak. Detecting the leak on time - Detecting the leak on time helps to quickly control the discharge and start the underground pipeline leak repair. Detecting a leak can help pipeline installation companies to control losses(human and financial) and environmental impacts. There are three ways to detect a leak: External - It is a method in which Leaks can be detected with the use of man-made methods to detect the leak in the pipelines. Internal -  In this method, the rehabilitation team may use software that works on algorithms and sensor monitoring systems to check ...

  All the pipeline installation companies are aware that a pipeline leak can be devastating for both the environment and humans. There are a number of reasons that may impact the working of a pipeline. For example corrosion, faulty operation in a link or end seal , excavation, failure of equipment, or even a natural disaster. As a result, pipelines need to be repaired and sometimes an underground pipeline leak repair is required to fix the issue. What is pipeline maintenance? Pipeline installation companies do a regular check on pipeline functions. This check is done to ensure that the pipeline is transporting fuel and there is no leak. This requires regular inspections to check that the pipeline is working fine. Pipeline maintenance is critical keeping in mind the cost involved in replacement. What is Pipeline Integrity Management(PIM)? PIM is an action taken to ensure the integrity of the pipeline. Pipeline integrity means making sure the pipeline is safe from the time it is ins...

Liquefied Petroleum Gas also known as LPG is directly supplied to factories or houses via pipeline installation . Typically, propane and butane are mixed to make LPG, which can be found in a gaseous state. In most cases, it is stored under pressure. Pipeline installation companies help to transport LPG to consumers.  There are three major LPG suppliers in India.  Indane Gas which is being run by IOC (Indian Oil Corporation) Bharat Gas which is being run by BPCL (Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited) HP Gas which is being run by HPCL (Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited) These are government-owned companies. The LPG supplied through a gas pipeline in India is being sourced through any one of the above three.  The procedure to get a gas connection is: Step 1 - You need to first find a gas agency near you that will service your area. You can either visit the distributor or check online using your Pincode. Step 2 - You need to download a gas pipeline in India form. It is ...

  Pipelines carrying fuels and gases are protected with the help of  casing insulators . Also known as casing spacers. These explosive and highly inflammable materials are transported in a carrier pipe which is covered with a casing. These pipelines are decades old and thus at risk of leak or rupture. They run underground therefore they have the capability to affect the soil and the water which is used by the nearby locals. To protect these pipelines from corrosion and to save from leaks or ruptures, casing insulators are put between the casing and the carrier pipe. These are electrical insulators that are easy to install and provide support to the carrier pipe. At the end of each pipeline, a seal is placed known as the  end seal . AT the end of the junction the casing and carrier pipe has an opening, end seal ensures that no foreign particle enters the space. These seals are flexible and move with the pipes. They are easy to install and light on the pocket. Underground p...
