PIPELINE HYDROTEST HOW TO CHECK PIPELINE SYSTEM INTEGRITY?

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF HYDROTESTING?
Hydrotesting of pipes, pipelines and vessels is performed to expose defective materials that have missed prior detection, ensure that any remaining defects are insignificant enough to allow operation at design pressures, expose possible leaks and serve as a final validation of the integrity of the constructed system.
WHAT ARE THE TYPICAL STEPS OF HYDROTEST?
Preparation: The pipeline is cleaned and dried to remove any debris, sediment, or foreign material that could interfere with the testing process. The pipeline is then filled with water using pumps or other equipment.
Pressurization: The water in the pipeline is pressurized to a predetermined level, typically higher than the maximum operating pressure of the pipeline. This pressure is maintained for a set period of time, usually several hours, to allow for any leaks or weaknesses in the pipeline to become apparent.
Inspection: During the test, the pipeline is visually inspected for any signs of leakage or deformation. Any leaks or weaknesses are identified and marked for repair.
Repair: After the test is complete, any leaks or weaknesses in the pipeline are repaired to ensure the pipeline is safe and reliable for use.
Reporting: A report is generated that documents the test results, including the pressure and duration of the test, any leaks or weaknesses that were identified, and actions taken to repair them.
