Freeze Technology International, Ltd
Hydrostatic Testing
Hydrostatic Testing
Major pipeline companies have recognized the impact the integrity of their pipelines have on the environment and their bottom line. Some have adopted elaborate hydrostatic testing and rehabilitation programs to continually certify the integrity of their pipelines. To serve these companies, Freeze Technology International, Ltd and our subsidiary companies created
a division that specializes in hydrostatic testing. The Ice-O-Lator®
system is used to freeze a plug within a pipeline in lieu of installing test manifolds. Water can be moved from one test section to another, eliminating costly draining and refilling of a pipeline.
- Our management and field personnel possess extensive knowledge and expertise in the art of hydrostatic testing and have developed unique leak locating techniques.
- Our equipment is state of the art. We own a wide variety of fill and pressure pumps that are packaged to meet the requirements of a particular job. For example, we have centrifugal fill pumps capable of producing over 1,200 PSI with volumes in excess of 1,000 gallons per minute.
- Test vans are custom build to meet exact specifications and are designed to perform several tests simultaneously. Naturally, all of our test vans are climate controlled to provide for the comfort and convenience of our clients.
We have designed and successfully completed rehabilitation projects involving thousands of miles of pipeline throughout the United States. After each project, we always provide our customers with a detailed hydrostatic test report containing all necessary data and documents pertinent to certifying the test.
Freeze Tech® crews arrive at the job site complete with Ice-O-Lator®
chambers, tools, monitoring and safety equipment, liquid nitrogen, transportation and most importantly… EXPERTISE.
Freeze plugging pipe is our ONLY
business. We are committed to safety and dedicated to excellence in servicing our customers.
