LUBE OIL FLUSHING
What is steam blowing?
What is lube oil flushing?
Steam blowing is carried out by subjecting the piping systems to heating, blowing steam and thermal cycles in sufficient number and duration (based on thermal shock, steam flow & cleaning force ratio). Methods include continuous blowing and The puffing method.
Lube oil flushing is a plant maintenance service that flushes the oil lines of plant equipment to clean the oil.
Lube oil flushing is done by flushing the system with an online filtration skid. This removes all of the small particles to achieve the cleaning criteria (NAS 6/ or ISO 16/14/12).

Chemical cleaning is the process of removing various types of scaling, sludges, and deposits by using chemical chemistry solvents to dissolve into the solution.

HYDRO-JETTING
AIR BLOWING
WATER FLUSHING
What is hydro jetting?
What is Water Flushing?
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water as a highly efficient cleaning method for removing rust, biofilm, limescale and old coatings.
High velocity water flushing is ideal for removing construction debris, loose rust, and mild scale. It is applicable to water systems where draining and drying are not required.
Compared to air blowing, high velocity flushing takes more time to rig in/out. It is more expensive, as it requires more resources (pump, tank, hoses, water storage tank etc)
Large amounts of water are needed, and some types of service lines will require additional drying.

Engineered air blowing is an efficient way to remove construction debris, loose rust, liquids, and other contaminants from process piping. Every air blow procedure is specifically engineered for the individual system being cleaned.

HYDROSTATIC TESTING
PNEUMATIC TESTING
What is Nitrogen Purging?
What is pneumatic testing?
Nitrogen Purging and Inerting (LEL & Oxygen removing) is highly effective for pipeline purges, product displacement, and process pipeline Inerting.
Types include displacement purging, pressure-cycle purging, and vacuum-cycle purging.
Types include displacement purging, pressure-cycle purging, and vacuum-cycle purging.
Pneumatic testing is a pressure test using air or other approved gas as testing medium to confirm system strength.
It is applicable when systems cannot be filled with water, or where traces of any testing medium cannot be tolerated.
It is applicable when systems cannot be filled with water, or where traces of any testing medium cannot be tolerated.
Hydrostatic Testing is pressure testing using water, or another approved liquid as the test medium. It is a quality control method used to confirm the strength of the system by testing above design pressure.
What is hydrostatic testing?
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF HYDROSTATIC TESTING?
- Identifies welding defects such as cracks, lack of fusion, or porosity.
- Checks for leakage on the main pressure components, such as blind flanges and flange joint surfaces. These can arise from using the wrong gasket, or from incorrect bolt tightening.
- Hydrostatic testing allows checking before the line is put on operation - where any leakage could have severe consequences.
APPLICATIONS INCLUDE:
- Non-metallic piping hydrotesting
- Valve hydrotesting
- Heat exchanger hydrotesting
- Pressure vessel and tank hydrotesting
- Plant piping (new construction)
- Utility piping systems
- Hydrocarbon process piping
- Gas refinery processing piping systems
- Boiler feed water systems
- Potable & drinking water piping & tank systems
- Amine system, SRU,
- Fire water piping & tank
NITROGEN LEAK TESTING
Nitrogen leak testing (or snoop bubble testing) works by pressurizing the system using Nitrogen gas. The pressure is held while the snoop spray is applied onto joint until the visual bubble inspection is complete.
The sensitivity of this method is about 10-3 mbar·litre/sec.
The sensitivity of this method is about 10-3 mbar·litre/sec.

HELIUM LINK TESTING
Nitrogen Helium leak detection is a method of identifying leaks within a process system and quantifying those leaks.
Leak testing can be carried out at up to 95%/90 % of system PSV setting/Customer requirement.
