As a vital part of the energy transmission network, gas distribution pipelines require continuous maintenance and repair. In Ilam Province, 10-inch pipelines faced problems with holes caused by corrosion and wear, which could have led to gas leaks and serious accidents. Using composite coating technology, these pipelines were completely repaired in just one hour.
Project Details:
In the table below, the technical and executive specifications of the project are presented:
Project Execution Stages
Identifying Damaged Points
Using precise inspections and advanced tools, holes and damaged points in the pipelines were identified.
Design and Installation of Composite Coatings
Composite coatings were designed to match the conditions of the pipelines and were installed with precision.
Final Evaluation and Testing
After the repair, the pipelines were subjected to testing and inspection to ensure their proper functioning.
Project Results
Enhanced safety of gas distribution lines
Prevention of gas leaks and potential accidents
Increased service life of pipelines
Reduced future maintenance and repair costs
Project completion in one hour, demonstrating high speed and efficiency
Technical Confirmation
Based on the report from the Technical Inspection Department of Ilam Province Gas Company, the leak sealing performed using polymer composites on 1402/08/14 (November 5, 2023) on 10-inch pipelines with an operating pressure of 250 psi has yielded satisfactory results, and no leaks have been reported to date. This confirmation demonstrates the quality and effectiveness of the methods used in this project.
Conclusion
The Ilam Province Gas Pipeline Repair Project is a successful example of the application of modern technologies in the gas industry. This project not only increased the safety of gas distribution lines but, by being completed in one hour, it also demonstrated the high speed and efficiency of advanced methods for preserving and optimizing the country’s energy infrastructure. The issued technical confirmations serve as a testament to the quality and success of this project.
