Commercial gas installation in Thornaby

Our client discovered a gas leak on their 3” pipework installation going through an unventilated space. Due to the location of the leak, the situation became highly dangerous and their gas supply was shut off by national grid.

Ormond purged out the gas in the existing main and rerouted the installation. Then we tested and purged the main back to gas and provided a Gas Safe certificate.

Hot tapping in Luton.
Three 1” on 2” live tappings completed on a coolant system for a back up generator, providing power for a sub station.

The tappings were used as drain points & entry for a back fill. This was so the coolant could be changed as part of a service on the back up generator.

3” on 3” live tapping on gas pipework, Westerwood Hotel Glasgow.

Commercial gas leak repair.
The original installation was leaking due to the underground steel pipework not having anti-corrosion tape. Overtime this will rot steel pipework, subsequently causing leaks.

Ormond replaced the 2” steel pipework with 50 meters of 63mm MDPE. MDPE was used due to its long life expectancy in addition to being cost and time effective.

Upon completion, Ormond provided a Gas Safe certificate confirming a successful test and purge of the new gas main.

Squeeze off on gas 6” MDPE

This operation stops the flow of gas and essentially acts as a temporary valve.

This is one of Ormonds routine procedures. It allows for alterations to be made, without turning off the supply to the entire site.

Welding a 2.5” fl**ge in position 100ft off the ground.

This was on a gas main which was previously purged to make hot works safe.

Purpose of this fl**ge was to form a split in the Pipework. The split would allow the decommission of redundant air handling units whilst the other side could remain live to feed two plant rooms.

Client required a new branch in their 10” MDPE gas main to supply a new furnace.

To avoid any production downtime Ormond Pipework squeezed off the live gas main. This allowed for a new branch to be installed without turning off the gas supply to the entire factory.
